    I've been dumped :(

    I just relocated to Florida from Ohio 6 weeks ago. I have no friends here. The money we had saved to live on for a few months was taken as the result of a theft, so I don't have money to go do anything with anyone I might meet online. I live in a rural area with no neighbors. I met a woman on FaceBook who also moved here from up north, she and her husband are our age. She practically begged us to come over for coffee, said she didn't mean to sound desperate but has no friends here either. I went over a couple of times for coffee and we chatted online almost every night. She was constantly trying to talk us into borrowing their lawn tools, offered to come help clear our land, etc. I finally relented and borrowed the mower for a day and took it back in perfect condition. We talked for about 30 minutes and I came back home. An important peice of my vent is that she offfered to dog sit for me (she offered, I never asked her for anything) when my son gets married the week of 9/20. This was a lifesaver, because I'm still trying to scrape up gas money to get to the wedding, I sure can't pay to board my dogs. Anyway, the next day after I took the mower back, I noticed she was no longer on my FB friends list. I just thought it was a glitch or something, so I messaged her and asked it I had done something to upset her. No answer. Next day, I asked again. She said "You have done NOTHING wrong, just cleaning out my friends list. bye." No more response for a day, so I messaged again and said I just didn't understand, did she not want to be friends, or what? She said she didn't think we had enough in common to be friends and not to message her again. I have thought and pondered at length, and I know I didn't do or say anything wrong to this woman. And now I'm at risk of missing my son's wedding because I have no one to watch my dogs. Is it just me, or was that just cruel? She knew how much that meant to me, and apparently didn't care. This whole thing has left me hurt, angry, and stressed. I already had trust issues, andnow they are blown out of the water. GRRRRRR!

    Some people are just nuts or not worth the hassle. Check with a 4H club or scout troop to help you out with your dogs. Church too.

    Just reading old posts, hoping things are better for you.
    Keep your hands to yourself, leave other people's things alone, and be kind to one another.
