I had no idea about life in Cuba

Until a few moments ago I was very excited about the man (27) I met in Cuba last week. I am very young (21) fresh out of university, and my family went to Cuba as a graduation present. Now, I must state that my parents are very strict and I have lived a very sheltered life.
We went to Melia Cayo Coco, I was very bored at first because most of the other tourists were the 40+ crowd. I was walking around the resort when this short(5'7), very tanned man, with excessive hair gel and an imperfect smile started walking beside me, keeping pace with me. I said nothing to him; I did not even acknowledge him. When we parted at the fork in the road he said to me, "You are very beautiful", and we both went on with our day. He knocked at my hotel door later, again telling me how beautiful I am and exotic I look (I am half Portuguese and half-Guyanese) and that he MUST meet with me at the beach bar when it closed. I met him at the beach bar. We spoke for a while. The third day I was there we slept together. To me it was incredible, before that I had only slept with one person (my ex-boyfriend) and it was not like this; he was romantic, passionate and affectionate. At night during the shows he would always pull me up to dance with him and the performers, and at the end of every show he would always kiss my hand in front of the audience. He made me feel very special.
After reading the other posts here I’m very disappointed and a little sad. My Canadian ex-boyfriend was super gorgeous and this Cubano is a little bit above average-looking (hence why I didn't give him a second look). I guess I did see some signs, like how impressed he was that I had an iPod touch, and to be fair his best friend did tell me he's not a good guy. I am relieved I found this website before I was hustled.
