Is it fair

So I met someone online over 3 months, we started talking and we like it each other , we then started talking about meeting and we decided to meet in Mexico 🇲🇽. So in preparation to us going to Mexico , he bought his ticket and he paid accommodation, I also then bought my ticket .

After that we realised I had to have visa and the flights were already booked. We decided that we would postpone the trip post two weeks.. he then booked another flight and accommodation. And the told us in Mexican embassy I cannot get visa .. I was so devastated and hurt .. and I felt bad that he spent money for nothing . I proposed to give him the money back which was 1000 $ and he refused ..


Down the line we decided we will do another trip to Barbados 🇧🇧.. and he said okay u will pay for accommodation and I agreed .. one of these days I lied and said I had already paid for the accommodation while I didn’t . It was wrong of me I know and I opened up to him . I apologised and I said I will book it .. he first said he understood the. One day later he started Reminding me about the money that he had just spent and then he also said I should give him the 1000 back ( the total expenditure for the previous trip )

I then asked him since im paying for accommodation now 1,300 should I also give u back the money too? He then asked me that how can I ask that .. that I should be technical

Sorry if I just juggled around words , please anyone give me any advices or answers or what .. is this a fair game on me because I think I’m crazy ..

I don’t know how I feel about everything

Don't give any money directly to him in case it's a scam.

@StickyToffeePudding 🤔 but he'd already paid out hadn't he, on the previous trip

@BigGuy2 yes he did .. but we never got to meet .. because of my visa being declined.I don’t have a problem also giving him the money back but I’m going to pay accommodation too for the second trip which is 1,300 and I still have to give him the money lost too ? .. so I don’t know if this is a fair game .. and the guy is actually a good guy I think

@Nomvuyo1780 ... i accept all that, but 'StickyToffeePudding' said don't give him money as it may be a scam - scammers DON'T pay out on flights and accommodation

@BigGuy2 yes yes ! U definitely correct
@Nomvuyo1780 he can get a refund tell you he lost it,,🐰

@jackrabbit10 yes but he said he didn’t have insurance when he bought the ticket .
@Nomvuyo1780 tell him to show you the ticket,,it sounds more like he is trying to get a free trip,,plus a beautiful lady with money,,be ware of such men,,,🐰
@Nomvuyo1780 I think in my head, it's risky because you've never actually met him. You could be placing yourself in a dangerous situation.
Plus that's exactly how scammers work. Laying levels of trust. Maybe even paying for something initially to gain your trust and then taking you to the cleaners as you use their first act of kindness to justify that they're okay and love you.
Just don't be too trusting too soon.
