Some people learn sooner than others about this type of person and how damaging and destructive they can be. The ONLY way to manage them is to keep them at arm's length at best. You can't help them, you can't fix them, and absolutely can not EVER EVER EVER believe a single word they say. They are pathological liars. They tell lies as easy as we take a breath of air.

It is unfortunate you had to learn in such a costly manner, but that is often how encounters with such broken people go. Hopefully you are not dumb enough to get wrapped back up in it. I have seen people who had such cretins as family members, and talk about a tough deal. Try to convince someone their own child is not worth ever talking to again. You got it off lucky, all things considered.

I also suggest you need to work on your self esteem. If you felt it necessary to dump so much money and resources on someone just because they had sex with you on occasion and paid you a little attention, well you got to fix yourself. You need to appreciate and respect yourself more than that.

Good idea, definitely in the ballpark, but how about we change heroin to crystal meth? That way she will be awake and on a drug fueled manic rage for weeks at a time, to supply us with even more juicy anecdotes before her ultimate demise.

brandon, why didn't you mention you got engaged to her? What did cops say about her stealing those things at end, and how long ago was it?? you already got the tough part out about being a sucker, but these details were missing.
I'm just assuming once engagement was called off, she left with those things worth 40k.

rest of story seems pretty standard for Brandi

Obviously I have no choice other than to move on and accept the situation as is. There are definitely no winners in any of this. I understand some people can relate to the situation I was involved in and will have compassion, while others will laugh at this as pure entertainment.

I posted my comments because I thought it was the right thing to do. Not because I am bitter at Brandi for who she is or what she had done in her past, I knew these things many months ago.

To steal a large sum from someone who has taken care of you, provided for you, and given you a better lifestyle than you had ever experienced, is the worst kind of evil. The worst sin in the world. That is why I am angry. That is why I decided to tell the truth about what I have been thru. I will not lie any further. I will not attempt to shield her or protect her from her actions any further. To hope this achieves it purpose of letting the community know exactly in specific detail what this person is to prevent this cycle from repeating itself.

There many other things that I know that are horrific in detail. At this point, it serves no purpse to really reveal them. I also respect the fact that certain people in the public light are involved as well and it would be a disservice to them as well to comment any further.

A large sum of money was spent on many things. Poker (both massive amounts online and live), our lifestyle and lastly my attempt to rehabilitate her and fix the mess she had neglected for so long.

None of this brings me any pleasure. It actually brings me an overwhelming amount of sadness. To know that I shed tears for HER pain makes me feel sick and want to convulge. Because in spite of it all, I truly cared and believed in her when no one else-her own family included- did. It sickens me that I know what her future holds. I wish I could be a heartless person but thats not in my makeup. No one can ever exhibit the patience and understanding that I tried to show in this relationship. I feel sad for her and what lies ahead.

Brandon

Please reconcile:
"There are definitely no winners"
"a large sum from someone who has taken care of you, provided for you, and given you a better lifestyle than you had ever experienced"
Sounds...uh..oxymoronish.
BTW..I hear you jump to the defense of casinos.

What a story.

A few things here:

1) It's highly likely that this post indeed came from Brandon and is 95-100% true.

2) Normally I am against the airing of dirty laundry from previous relationships. However, in cases that involve theft (and subsequent sale) of property, the other person deserves no privacy or respect at that point. Therefore, you cannot fault Brandon for what he's doing here.

3) Along those same lines, Brandon, why are you holding anything back? If what you say is true, the girl directly stole from you at the end and sold off your stuff for poker money. Why not just spill EVERYTHING about her at this point?

4) I saw Brandi in September at Borgata. Oddly enough, she was singing the IDENTICAL tune that she had sung the previous year -- that someone had F'd her over, and she had no way to get home. In 2006, Mark Newhouse bailed her out and bought her a ticket home. Looks like Brandon got the call in 2007.

How about an OP joke?
Did you hear Brandon got caught in a trap? He chewed off a leg and he was still caught in the trap.
