A guy faked his entire existence, his everything to get into a relationship with me

Hi everyone, this is my first post here because i really needed some help. Okay so I started talking to a random guy, he was the one to text me first on social media. I never usually reply to random people but I did to him even though he didn't had a single picture of him there. We talked a lot, almost all the time and here is what happened He said to me he has fallen in love with me and with the way I am. He knew my name, face from Instagram. I asked for his pictures and he sent me. I fell in love with him too because of the person he was with me. He used to send me pictures, tons of them too occasionally so did I. It was around 6 months or so we talked, in the start we were friends but then we got into a very decent relationship, no sexting whatsoever because I hate it. Please note, we haven't met in person, just talk on calls, share pictures and texts. So today he called me, and told me he lied to me about everything. He was using pictures of some random blogger and portrayed himself like he was that but not as a blogger but as a normal person. He said he doesn't have feelings for me, it was all a game for his personal reasons. I dont know what I could have done to deserve this shit. Basically, the guy he represented himself to be, name, face, hobbies, adventures etc everything was fake, he was not real. Now I am so badly hurt because I actually fell in love with him. I don't know what to do....

pseudonym internet identity are quite common for breadcrumbing innocent people like you. best defense I have found is to ask about friends so you can validate reality. another quick trick is request picture of him in specific pose with sign saying "I Like Jenny" immediately. if he is a sock puppet he will be unable to comply. never mojo your heart online save it till physically intense with someone. be careful as he will pass your gullible persona to other puppets. they do this for laughs breaking hearts then ghosting them

You know exactly what to do, and that's to erase him from your mind like he never existed. The internet is full of fake people, and so learn from your lesson so that it doesn't happen again.

I think you should be happy he revealed his identity early enough. It's better it happened now that you haven't invested much, than later when you have invested so much. I'll advice you learn from your mistake and move on.
