Not to be rude
Its 6h 34min by car. 372 miles.
Niagra to Toronto is about 65 miles.
But anyways
I'm glad your finally getting ready to go see Sam,and I hope you guys have a good time. I think your strong and determined,and you have a safe place for the two of you.
I know you love her Gabe,and love is a good feeling,alot of other emotions come with it and I think your growing as a man,and Sam will be proud of you 

Yes
But getting out to a show
Socializing

You really arent geographically astute.
You walk over the border you are in buffalo

Have you moved on from comic collecting?
I know Niagra Falls had a little con a couple months back.
Also Toronto is having their bi-monthly show this weekend.

No
And you get to see the countryside,rather than clouds 
It will be nice
Any stop overs?
Maybe you can visit times square

Forget about proof of anything,you dont owe anybody anything.
Dont go running around when your down there thinking "I gotta prove myself to these guys"
Live in the moment,embrace everysecond you get to spend with her,value her,listen to her,respect her.

I always tell Sam what I'm doing. I don't have many things left to get from Sam as proof and I worked out the address part with her and agreed to meet up at the police station and she had no issues at all with it. I'm excited to see her when I do

I hope Sam is on the up and up and things work out good for you Gabe.
You have a good soul.

I used whitepages.com 
It seemed to be the only legitimate one that I felt comfortable using and I have used them twice. In both instances it provided myself and those close to me important information which we made very important decisions.  Simply finding that information alone was not enough and it led us on the right path to make those decisions. 
In one instance something did not seem right to me about a moving contract... I looked the guy up and found out that he had multiple convictions for trafficking stolen merchandise and was the 'owner' of a various moving companies under different names operating a scam where they take your belongings and claim you owe them more than the contract.  While you are in disagreement over that they hold your items and will not deliver them charging you a storage fee refusing to deliver your household items, furniture and anything else until you pay them.  Whitepages alerted me to the guys convictions and his moving companies... I looked up his moving companies on facebook and yelp and found that everyone was suing him or simply paying him to get their lives back.  
In another instance a friend of ours from when we were teens and in our early twenties had disappeared for a bit.  We figured that he was involved in drugs.  When we did the background search because no one wanted to look him up over the system that the police use (There are a few police in my inner circle.) we found out enough information that made us look up further information to give us serious pause and wonder why we allowed him to stay with some of us when everyone got back together for a friend's wedding. He is involved in enough bad stuff that we should not be in the same room with him ever again. 
Gabe, if you ever have any questions I will try my best to answer them honestly and without judgment as far you.  Simply PM me if you need any help or assistance or want to talk. 
Andrew. 
 

I do have her full first and last name but I just threw it out there that we meet up at her town's police station and she said "No problem" doesn't sound at all like someone that wants to harm me. But what site would you recommend for a background check?

Yeah
That's what I meant

Yes I'll be keeping an eye out. Well as far as honesty, she's been honest with me as far as I can tell and things she's said on MNF have checked out. Including the account info she gave me for it and her discord. There's still quite a few things that will need to be addressed but they aren't as hard. I will ask for more specifics about her address though

You know what?
If you are happy - so be it.
Go for it and I wish you the best of luck and hope you meet up as soon as possible.
And she is everything you hope she is.
All the Best.

I'm rooting for you too Gabe

This should take 5 minutes on google
If your unaware of my life
I spent 13 years in prison
We have a gradual release program in which we do volunteer work in the community with an officer
The second phase is unescorted temporary absences 
I got approved for two 3 day absence 
This is generally to familiarize yourself with the city and get your I'd straighten out
On the first one I got a health card and opened up a bank account. I did this all in one day,the next day I was walking up yonge near dundas saw a nice girl chatted her up,told her my situation got her number and returned to prison on the third day
The second UTA I got my driver's license and looked into colleges to attend to upgrade. I also spent time with the girl I met on my first UTA
The point I'm trying to make is we have all face adversity in our life,but we have the strength within us to overcome it
The second thing is complacency is an anchor that prevents us from moving forward.
 

Like I said, you’re being preyed on by your make believe wife.  None of this is real beyond the fact that someone, somewhere (USA, Uruguay, Kazakhstan, Bangladesh...how do you even know?) with a keyboard is communicating with you.  
Whatever part of your brain is flashing the warning signals, you need to listen to it.

Are you trying to help this guy get a grip on reality or insult him?

Explain what?
Everyone on the site knows this
What I'm trying to say is,the adversity I've faced I brought it on myself,but I didnt sleep on my recovery and rehabilitation
My past is something I'm not proud of
I cope with the shame all the time,but I'm not gonna let my guilt incapacitate me or anyone else for that matter
I'm going to keep pushing forward,as should you.
I hope your not just seeking attention and you really take some of the advice you have received.

1. How is this thread back? I thought it was locked? Is CGC scared, too?
2. If this is really you, the bottom photo is a pretty good one. I don't go around rating guys (not my thing but no disrespect to any boardie who does), however, you're got a good looking look to you. I don't see why real life girls would be a problem for you. Stay off the internet girls and meet a real ones, like maybe at a restaurant you get a job at! You just need a direction and purpose. Girls can sense that and want it in their boyfriends or husbands or guy friends or whatever the kids say now. Please stay away from the computer and walk down the street and apply at the first nice(r) restaurant you see.

He has an opportunity to do webcam with her,and shes the one who suggested it,but he refuses.
I agree,this could turn out to be a really bad investment
Financially 
Emotionally 
Psychologically 
Physically

Super nice
Right back at cha

Detroit Rock City 

I'm out guys-this is pointless.  Who's going with me?

Yep
He needs intervention 
Take his mind off the absolute crazy
Sometimes people need a circle to fit in,matter of fact sometimes people find circles to exploit.
The angle he has is fractured, it's okay to believe in God,what isnt okay is to think God told you to do something catastrophic because God needs your help. God is God.
What is good is if God told you to plant trees,help an old lady across the street,work at a soup kitchen.
Gabe,God does not require mans intervention,and to merge the belief in superheroes,government conspiracies and God is a very dangerous and unhealthy Avenue to take.
As harsh and condescending as some of these posts may seem,they are guided to steep you in reality,as much as some things are a matter of perception there is concrete evidence of a delusional mindset, a path of pain that you are taking.
Please man,I know the pains of trying to create a false reality as some form of escape from the real one, because the real one is too painful to face,but life is full of hope and second chances,grasp unto it embrace it. Please

A girl who's very interested and wants to webcam but never sends a pic.  Girls love pics and take selfies like crazy but for some reason-nope.  See why we just dont believe any of this?
