I read this story word by word and found it very unusual. I have read a lot of stories about the girls, particularly from Philippine, who always befriend boys on the Internet and then demand for money by saying that they needed it for their college or medicines or bills.

I personally know a boy who had lost at least four hundred dollars to a girl this way. After receiving the money, she disappeared and never replied his emails.

He told me that the girl had met him in a chat room after which she pretended to be fallen in love with him. One day, during the chat, she wept and said that she cannot continue her education because of fees. He was really in love with her and had mentioned his parents that he will marry her. So he sent his one month's salary to her after which he found the real story.

I have heard and read many other similar stories all of them saying the girls cheated the boys.

Anyway, it means that there are boys who have be-fooled girls for money pretending to be in love with them. Still I think is not usual for boys to grab money from them this way. Or I don't know about the girls of the United States.

In underdeveloped countries, people are living under poverty and there many cultural or legal restrictions under which you have live a limited life. Otherwise in the States and Europe, people have many advantages of life. So it is everyone's dream to go to the States or Europe. In fact they are deprived of what they want or need. That the biggest problem of those societies which has imposed irrational restrictions on its members. Due to these restrictions and limits, they can not educate better, can not think freely and can not live their lives by their own. This absurdity should be abandoned.

I myself live in an underdeveloped country and know about the deprivations of the people. The government, the mullahs and the corrupt politicians have be-fooled the people every time. They always gave them violence in the name of peace, terrorism in the name of jihad, corruption in the name of democracy and poverty in the name of progress. That is why all the people want to leave this country. They should because it is their right to live a better life, and because the government and other related institutions are fully failed to give them their rights to live as human beings.
