He presents himself as a professional man, plays the piano and loves his daughter's smile.
Tells you that he is a mechanical engineer, contractor that is working on a proposal for a project.
He quickly works to hook you and get your phone number to get off of the Tinder app.
He then builds his character... that over the course of a week was this:
Mechanical Engineer contractor that works for the United Nations, even sent me a photo of him on a plane...
He was in Los Angeles for the last 30 years, recently moved to Beaverton, Oregon.
Immigrated at 18 from Switzerland and met his wife.
He has a proposal in the works that he is excited about for work in the Middle East.
He wins the proposal under a short time-frame and then has to fly to Damascus, Syria for work for 2 weeks.
In Damascus apparently, they cant take photos in the UN base - so no video chat no photos.
He says he his wife died 5 years ago and that he is new to online dating.
He has a 18 year old daughter in college.
He plays the piano and loves Hafiz the philosopher.
He does not provide his last name, or company he works for.
When asked for confirmation of who he is - he attacks back saying there is not trust, and now does not trust my intentions and cuts off communication.
