8/20/25, 2:16 PM - Sandy: Can you share a bit about yourself, your work, and if you have any kids? Looking forward to getting to know you better!
8/20/25, 2:18 PM - Wes Lathan: Sure, I'm 59. Divorced twice, single for about a year. 2 kids, one from each marriage. A 39 year old daughter from the first, a 14 year old son from the second. I manage software development teams for a living and own several small businesses
8/20/25, 2:22 PM - Sandy: I'm a combat medic in the Army, stationed at Tinker Air Force Base. I've served in the US Army for the past 18 years, which has been an incredibly fulfilling journey. My work is demanding and involves a lot of field operations, base duties, and emergency readiness, but I find it incredibly rewarding. I have a wonderful 9-year-old daughter who means the world to me. She's a bright, energetic kid who loves reading and playing soccer. Balancing my career and being a mom is challenging, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm looking forward to getting to know you better and seeing where things go.
8/20/25, 2:26 PM - Wes Lathan: Wow, amazing. I was in the Air Force in the 80's
8/20/25, 2:28 PM - Sandy: That’s great
8/20/25, 2:28 PM - Sandy: I'm curious, what type of woman are you looking to settle down with?
8/20/25, 2:29 PM - Wes Lathan: Well, not in a hurry  to settle down. Really just want to get to know someone. See if there's an energy that draws us together. It's hard to describe that person, it's really how there qualities add up to create a good match for me <This message was edited>
8/20/25, 2:43 PM - Sandy: Honestly, I've been thinking a lot about what I want in a partner. Given my demanding job as a combat medic, I need someone understanding and patient. Kindness is huge for me - someone who genuinely cares and puts others first. Family is a big deal, so it's essential they value that too and could be a positive influence in my daughter's life. Life can get tough, but with the right person, it's easier. A good sense of humor helps get through the hard times. For me, open and honest communication is key. I want someone willing to share thoughts and feelings and value my perspective. Ultimately, I'm looking for a partner to build a life with - someone who'll be my rock, best friend, and confidant. Together, we can create a loving, supportive relationship based on mutual respect.
8/20/25, 2:44 PM - Wes Lathan: Well said
8/20/25, 2:45 PM - Sandy: Could you share a bit about your past relationships and what you've been through?
8/20/25, 2:49 PM - Wes Lathan: I was very young for my first marriage. Didn't realize she had mental issues. Spent 16 year single. Met my second wife on Match.com. We went well for 10 years until she went through menopause. She lost all desire in that change and really just wanted to be friends. Our son is autistic so we remain friends and work closely together for him
8/20/25, 2:49 PM - Wes Lathan: Had a few girlfriends, in between, but nothing that left an impression
8/20/25, 2:53 PM - Sandy: My daughter's dad struggled with alcoholism, which created a lot of issues. It got to a point where I had to make the tough decision to divorce him and get a restraining order to protect my daughter and myself. I know it's important for my daughter to have a relationship with her dad, but I also need to ensure her safety. So, the restraining order will stay in place until he becomes sober. It's been a challenging journey, but I'm focused on what's best for my daughter.
8/20/25, 2:55 PM - Sandy: I'd love to learn more about you. Can you share a bit about your background with me?
8/20/25, 2:56 PM - Wes Lathan: Grew up in the Seattle area. Air Force after high school. Did drug interdiction in central and south America. 4 years as a radio operator at the Washington State Patrol. Joined Microsoft in 1995. Spent 18 years there, moved to North Carolina in 2013. As a hobby I'm a professional singer
8/20/25, 3:01 PM - Sandy: I was born and raised in Oklahoma. My dad was Spanish-Australian and my mom is American. Unfortunately, My dad passed away from a heart disease 2years ago. I attended Norman High School in Oklahoma and then went to the University of Oklahoma for my undergraduate studies. Their excellent nursing program helped me build a strong foundation in healthcare. Later, I enrolled in the Emergency and Trauma Care Nursing Program at the University of Texas, which was crucial for becoming a combat medic.
8/20/25, 3:03 PM - Wes Lathan: Wow, that's quite a journey. What rank are you?
8/20/25, 3:05 PM - Sandy: I think it would be really beneficial for us to share our thoughts on any discussion we have. This way, we can exchange ideas and get to know each other a bit more every day. Understanding how we think and perceive things will help us connect better.
8/20/25, 3:06 PM - Wes Lathan: Sure. What rank did you say you are? Enlisted or Officer?
8/20/25, 3:07 PM - Sandy: SSG E-6
8/20/25, 3:10 PM - Wes Lathan: Nice!
8/20/25, 3:11 PM - Wes Lathan: How does an army combat medic end up on an Air Force base? That must be a story
8/20/25, 3:12 PM - Sandy: I'm attached to the 72nd Medical Group here at Tinker.
8/20/25, 3:14 PM - Wes Lathan: Why do they need a combat medic for that? the 72nd is a primary care and readiness unit. Not forward operations. The base is a logistics station
8/20/25, 3:16 PM - Wes Lathan: When you guys use military members for these, it really pisses me off. Even dumber, I told you I was in the Air Force numb nuts. You think I'm not going to call bull shit on that?
8/20/25, 3:16 PM - Sandy: Yeah I know! I spent most of the day handling administrative tasks, coordinating schedules, and making sure everything was running smoothly.
8/20/25, 3:17 PM - Wes Lathan: Oh stop, look I bait you guys and waste your time. That's what I do. Read this closely. This is the worst, and I mean THE WORST scam script I've seen. Switch your tactics
8/20/25, 3:18 PM - Wes Lathan: HackLoop? If you are I thought you guys were better at this

8/20/25, 3:19 PM - Wes Lathan: You guys are scumbags all the time, but doing this with stuff from the US Military is 10 times worse for Americans
8/20/25, 3:20 PM - Wes Lathan: I'm all over these apps catching you shitbags. Fuck, you aren't even worth my time you are so bad at it
