Answer 1

Sitting in my sun room early one morning and the neighbors dumb(really dumb) horse tried to jump their fence. She got her front feet caught between the top wire and the second one and was lying on her back and also very PG. I called them--about 5 am and told them they needed to hurry and get her out of the fence. I waited and waited and they didn't show up..The horse could have died after 30 minutes flat on her back, I fineally went over there with bolt cutters and a halter, put the halter on her and cut the wire to get her out of it. My thanks, they sued me because I ruined their fence. Huh!! I won but it cost me cash. Nice to try to be nice right??

Answer 2

I visited a guy I met on internet (first mistake) in another state, when I was returning he gave me some inexpensive gifts and my suitcase was too small so he loaned me his. When I got back I shipped the suitcase back via UPS. I didn't put it in a b"ox because I said "Suitcases go all over the world". He later said "what idiot would mail a suitcase not in a carton, and it was covered with red paint" Trying to show my integrity, I looked up the price of a brand new suitcase like the one he had and sent him over $100 for it. No appreciation whatsover. What an idiot. Myself for sending him the money,, I could have used it for something better.

Answer 3

Yes- but I'm not sorry I did it, just sad it had to be done :-(

With many, many years of angst and failure to feel I had peace of mind, I learned to keep my life as free from toxic situations, places and people as possible.

People are the hardest area to navigate, as some toxic people can also be people I really love, yet have mega issues with dealing with their issues...self centeredness - meaning no matter what happens or to whom, they internalize it as being a slap to them; negativity - never being able to see the up side and only the down side; feeling like everyone who disagrees with them is in the 'wrong' and they must MAKE them wrong before they can go on....etc etc.

I have a friend like that - and although I love her dearly, it has come to a head and the relationship continuing would require me to always watch my P's and Q's - never disagree- when asked for advice tell her what she wants to hear etc etc. etc. I can't even say to her that I think a certain email forward is mean spirited...[dang, she didn't write it, somebody else did!] without her telling me she has hurt feelings....

We have traded emails for days now and finally I realized that for months now I have been on pins and needles with her and it is causing me too much upset....I cannot change her, that I know and although I somewhat know the source of her issues, I cannot change that either. Years of trying to help [when she asked] has been to no avail. She is an "I know, I know" person who then goes about things as she has always done. Her knee jerk anger and reaction has landed her in deep trouble, even with the law [telephone harassment] and anger management classes, yet she still didn't learn or see that she needed to learn.

My heart aches for her; but I had to let the relationship go....for me that is sad.

Answer 4

I had a relative whom I knew was using the credit report of another family member with the same name. I told the older family member about the younger member using the credit report to obtain credit cards and other loans. The younger person doing the fraud was so angry with me they actually told me they hoped to never see me again until I was in my coffin. I was at the funeral of the person who in anger said they hated me and wished to see me in my coffin. We did make up and all the anger was under the bridge by the time they died but at the funeral and since I have gone over those words in my mind. This person died a premature death and in their mid 30's. In the long run my telling about the situation did not make any difference except cause hard feelings. I thought I was doing the right thing and would have wanted to know if the same deed was done to me. In fact the same young person did get traffic tickets and use my name. I just wish I did not have those ugly words in my memory.

Answer 5

I have helped folk do things and then they had a "convenient lapse of memory." I have helped folk retrieve "funds" that were erroneously removed from their bank accounts. Even further, I have helped "restore their credit" because of the "finance companies" insistence, that the person owed them MORE, than the companies had coming. In other words, the companies were "attempting to steal" from them. I have even helped a person NOT go to jail because they were "wrongfully" accused of doing something with their credit card. The credit card was safely placed in the person's safe deposit box and was NOT available for use. Yet, the credit card was "charged" with expenditures and excessive fees for being "over the limit." This person's habits were such that they wouldn't spend money for "anything," if they could help it. I knew they were framed. With the help of the "higher officials" in those particular companies, he was able to rectify it. His name was then "restored" with all of the "credit bureaus." I wish all of us well. Peace, Love and God Bless.

Answer 6

Yeah. Several times each decade since I was 12. Refinancing my house was the most recent bomb. This mortgage sucks, and I'm stuck for another 16 months.

Answer 7

AS we spoke earlier, my ex took an auto title load out against my car. I paid the interest for 22 months @175.00 for an $800.00 loan to send his son to camp. Finally, I paid off the loan, interest and principal as a Christmas gift. He took another title loan out against my car, never made a payment and they repo'd my car. I asked him why he didn't call the police when my car was gone, and he shrugged his shoulders, he didn't care about what happened to my mode of transportation, never told me about the loan. I had to find out through the police Not having transportation cost me my job

The interest paid the first time came to $4025.00 for 22 months with repayment it came to $5,025.00 for $800.00 loan

Sick, isn't it???
