Now as I realise a lots of his lies I wish to have my money back but he doesn鈥檛 want to sell the taxi.. I would like to know if I could go to the police to report聽 him聽 and his abuses聽 ( he manipulated women to use them for money )聽 .. I have take a picture of his ID聽 carte for protection but the car contract聽 it isn鈥檛 on my name . Could i go the the police and explain my story?

Hi Christine,

I am not sure if you can get him to sell the Taxi providing that its under his name, I think the most you can do it damage his reputation, but not sure if this will be worth your time and money.

my advice? move on, you have learned a lesson (not a pleasant one unfortunately, but that's life)

love stories between different cultures are often difficult and requires a lot of maturity and compromises from both parties. keep that in mind.

Best of luck!
