Hey ladies...I need some help on a female level here. I'm trying to end my 2 year relationship, and without giving too much information I've been lied to too many times. But here's the problem...This jerk is making himself as unavalibe as possible. He ha a few things of mine and also owes me some $$. So here are my 2 choices... 1. 50/50 chance I maybe able to catch him at home tonight. 2. Go up tohis work tomorrow night What do you think would be best? Thanks for your help!!!!! Andria

I'd try the home first.. Guys gets wierd as crap when you "air their dirty laundry" out in public.. Especially at work..If he blows you off for several days and there's no alternative, then go for work.. Just my .02 Shell

Yep......I totally agree with Shell, try not to drag it to his work, but maybe mention it might go there if you can't hook up with him at home in the next couple of days, that should be enough motivation for him to meet you at home...------------------ Speed kills...drive a Chevy!!!

When you play hardball, use the bat, that will get his attention. Also, never ever loan money to a boyfriend, I've seen many guys borrow with NO intention of repaying, most of them get away with it too.

Well, I tried Nice, No luck. So I think I will call him tonight and let him know what I need and expect and I will give him until Saturday to either drop it off to me or I will stop up at the shop! The odd thing is I got the $$ he borrow back, but he has not paid for his cell phone. SO in nice terms I just want the $$ to pay the bill, turn the phone off and the phone back! I've already paid the $$ out, so it's just going back into the Sinclair paint fund! Andria Just one thought though...Why does this have to be this tough...You Messed up, you know you did, so be a man and step up to the plate!

Actually, you messed up. You loaned him money, got him a cell phone. That should have given you a clue. A man doesn't take money from women. If you want a man, get a man. Live and learn. ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1, '72 Mustang Sprint, '94 F-150 Pics MCA Member # 47773

I dunno, Andria.....is it worth just cuttin' your losses for? Gettin' the stuff back might be the greater hassel....just my opinion and not knowing the expense involved.....

Too bad you live in Colorado...here in Philly when "NICE" doesn't work we send Vito and Nunzio to the door... You'd be surprised how you would end up with a new phone...a bonus on top of your money he owes..and a chance to call the hospital to check his condition.. AND HEY...DON'T FEEL STUPID...YOU'RE NOT.. You made the mistake of thinking everyone has some scruples and thinks like you do.. We've all done it...chalk it up as a life learning experience...without staying bitter at anyone else you meet.... Good Luck...we're not all that bad !!!! I lent a girl 2 grand once...yeah..2 grand....took me two years (interest Free) to give her a deal "She couldn't refuse">> And got the money in one day....------------------ EDDIE D Resto Mod '70 Sport Roof Arrest Me Red '02 GT, Torch Red "If I knew I would have lived this long, I would have taken better care of myself !"

I think I'll go back to my original dating rules... 1. No more tattoos then I have 2. Hair must be shorter then mine 3. No car, no date 4. Must have A place of his own and the most important 5. DO NOT Touch, make fun of, or think about driving my car! No Vito and Nunzio, but I do have Russ, Dave, Jimmy, Frank, etc!!! Andria

Andria, I fit all those rules, but you may want to add one that will disqualify me, No married men. If you don't want to add that one my phone number is..........

I think giving the "bums rush" to bums like that is easy. Do you want somebody to screen these guys for ya? Tom
