Originally posted by Stormymystic: why does neighbors take advantadge of people? I loaned my phone to m neighbor, a few days ago, and she returned it yesterday! then she borrows it again, and now she is not home! it is a cell phone, and I am really upset about it, they have called my brother twice today, and she erases the call logs, not evn caring that I might have unsaved numbers in there, I can not lock the call logs on this phone, so i have no way of stopping her from doing this, should I start being mean and telling her no, she can not use it? or perhaps lie and say it si broken, when in a way it is, she broke the Antenna off of it during her last borrowing of the phone, what can I do that does not sound mean, or ruiin what little friendship there is? p.s. another about her, she is also supposed to be our bay sitter, but just before time for her to take the kids, she dissapears, and then when she comes home, it is always oh I forgot.....than she tries to back out of it,she sent her 12 year old son, and his sister, and a 13 year old biy over here, and they wound up getting online, and messing with stuff, and hitting on a 36 year old woman, she does not control her kids, grrr, ok rant off for now [img]graemlins/rant.gif[/img]

Stormy, cancer or no, this is not a person you need in your life. If only for the reason that she make you feel guilt (intentionaly or not) for not capitulating to her. That she is also irresponsible with your belongings and your CHILDREN .... inexcusable. (On a side note 12 and 13 yr olds SHOULD be responsible enough to watch children for a few hours). If she asks, just say no. You need no more justification than that. If she needs one, she needs to get her own. If she can't afford one, she obviously doesn't need one.

I was about to post the same thing as Night Stalker did. I agree with him.

[Night Stalker]

Pourquoi, merci mon ami.

[Stormymystic]

yeah, I guess it is just my child hood feelings of guilt allowing me to be run over by other people, maybe she will return my phone tonight. I need to learn to stop being so umm what is it called, gullible?

This is more an agility-matter than a constitutional one: being able to scratch your nose without getting soap in your face!
[/QUOTE]ok so what's your dex? [/QUOTE]
When it comes to disco-dancing: 18! But for doing the dishes I get a 10 penalty I never drop anything though!

P.S. Tomorrow's my first driving lesson since a whole year! I'm kinda nervous again, since I will have to manouver through all the school children, exciting!

Gotta admit, Stormymystic, if it were me, I'd tell her no, because she doesn't respect your property. Not much of a friend if she can't do that! I can't imagine borrowing anything from a friend and then mistreating it or not returning it when asked! I'd feel MUCH worse about that than having to borrow it in the first place!

that is because we are nice ppl, cloudy. nice ppl don't do things like that. we work hard to keep ppls things in good condition, and return them promptly.

on another note, my lovely husband believs it is neat that this child wants to poke an appendage through my stomach. it hurts!!!!!!! oh well, i have a drs visit tomorrow! 1030 est. i can't wait.

Borrowing something isn't a bad thing. But I've been taught that when you borrow something you return it in equal or better condition than when you got it.

We had to stop being friends with someone. If she brought her kids over and said "I'll be back at 7pm" then we could count on 830pm or later. What finally pushed it over the edge was when Madison (her daughter) was having an asthma attack (she is allergic to cats and dogs, both of which we have) while she and her boyfriend were trying to give us a sales pitch for his new business venture.

Is it safe for me to say that Belle made my coffee too strong tonight? [img]graemlins/goodmorning.gif[/img] I know she was only thinking of me, so I can't really complain. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img]
