Pictures: Sure he can be sending pictures but how do you know that it's not his neighbour's/friend's picture?
Job: How do you know if he's working as who he says he is? Any good way of finding that out? (Asking him to send a copy of his company pass is a little extreme though...)

I'll give you an example. He says he's working in a very well-known company (I shan't reveal details) but it's a HUGE company in the American entertainment world. Any American would know it. And he has family shares in it.
Then my friend pointed out a very valid question. Why would such a big shot be interested in even talking to me? Much less flying over...
Personally I think he's a fine guy (so far) and sounds sincere in our conversations, and for the record, we've known each other for about 5 years now.

Yeah 5 years...I really think he's a good person and means no harm to me. Wel all these years we haven't been talking very regularly, just a Hi-Bye session, just that recently we've started talking a lot...
My friend's a very cautious type and he's planting seeds of doubt in me, that's why. He's been around quite a lot and definitely knows the ways of the world better than me.
So his point is, "Why would such a big shot be interested in even talking to me?"
Question: What is the objective of you wanting to meet him? Is it because of who he claim he is, or because you are really interested to meet him?Miss Swan wrote:Haha actually he's shown me his devil side already...But all on a good-nature level.
He says he doesn't have any sexual intentions towards me (again how the hell would I know that)...
I might or might not decide to meet him...
But now my main issue is what can I do to verify that what he's said is true?
