For weeks now, months maybe, who ever it is has been telling me they have very poor English and, in different ways, asking for sympathy and understanding.  I always thought there was a possibility it was a con because the understanding of English and the vocabulary used was far too good for her to genuinely be the person she claimed to be. This is how she wrote to me;

I responded by suggesting she try to improve her written English because it would make it easier to make more friends. This is how she responded

My useless English is just a defense against getting too involved with some people and it strangely helps to get things out that I wouldn't otherwise.

The weirdest thing is..............I get the impression 'she' (if it is a she) thinks its ok to do this!!.................oh well takes all sorts I guess
