Our conversation was quite ridiculous and he was either, "fuck it I quit" or excuse or lie one after the other. He ended things saying how he gave his farm away to his brother, and was seriously considering going back to the service and living in Germany. He was going to train the soldiers how to do what he once did when he was enlisted as a shooter. Seriously...I'm going to believe that lie? Someone who is going to be training the next generation of shooters, is going to be an active shooter.
Then he told me he was in Franklin, KY, which is just a little over an hour away. So, zero interest to see me.
When I called him out on the wife and kids, he would just say "what are you talking about". I even got bold enough to say, "you know what I am talking about" He knew he was busted and started this lie about how I found his brother on Facebook. Blah, blah, blah....it was as though I could feel him looking at his screen trying to figure out what to say or do next.
I just simply hope he is unhappy. For all he has put me through, I do hope he is unhappy. I also hope his beautiful daughters never marry anyone like him, they deserve so much better.
An honest opinion from one of the new guys I have started to talk to online.
After this surprise conversation I was heading down I-40 looking forward to getting home, when I hit some traffic which was backed up. I get over in the far left lane as I noticed the semi's were in that lane. Suddenly, my truck turned off. It restarted, went forward...and then the warning lights came up. From the way the vehicle was turning, I just knew my water pump went out. Thankfully, I made it home, but the entire way I was leaking out coolant. I am lucky I did not have far to go and I was able to make it to my destination. Unfortunately, since I am house sitting and I still have to get to work. Which I then needed to pack so I would have what I needed since I would not have access to go back and forth. Then I decided at 2 or so in the morning, to just get a ride from Uber. I don't know what that cost me, but I am tired of relying on other people for help. I am so frustrated, I thought my truck situation would have settled for a bit. But, NOPE! Praise God I do not have a writing assignment this weekend. Another blessing, I can use one of the vehicles where I am house sitting. After, Wednesday I will be able to use my roommates vehicle who is going out of town. Thankfully, there is an upside, it is just frustrating as I am desperate to get ahead and want to start saving to go home this winter.
Hopefully, this won't be too much of an expense when it comes to replacing this water pump. When I looked into this before, it was around $500.00. Thankfully, I have found a new mechanic who is very nice and was recommended and seems honest, unfortunately, I believe I am going to be making his boat payments.
