Need advice: Got Robbed - GoFuckYourself.com

herbal logic · 08-04-2004, 09:41 PM

Long story short.

my gf was over this morning after I got locked out of my house til 5am, she saw me take off my watch and leave it on the kitchen table, she saw the watch when she took my dog for a walk. So, I was asleep after this, and my friend who is hurting for cash shows up to my house, Basically hops my gate and breaks in through the sliding door. He announced his pressence and I was fucking pissed because I don't go into peoples houses unless they let me in and I was tired etc.

So, I yell from upstairs to get the fuck out and fuck you etc. I walk over to my pc after I woke up and there's an IM basically saying fuck you, you're such an asshole etc.

I felt bad for being rude, I call him tonight, he comes over and Im like "hey, you gotta check out this watch." I go look for it where it was and its gone. I looked all over my house even though I have a photographic memory and saw the thing before I went to bed, knew exactly where I left it. I confronted him, he denied it, was helping me look for it.

So, what to do? He was acting kind of guilty. btw no way it was my gf because she picked it out, we've been essentially dating for 8 yrs.

how much is the watch worth?

My advice: beat his ass but you will find the watch after givin him a beating

James White · 08-04-2004, 09:43 PM

Just kick his ass or hire a buncha kids from the hood to do it. Not much you can do legally... sure its long gone by now.

Dagwolf · 08-04-2004, 09:43 PM

The butler did it.

Seriously... Be careful about throwing accusations around. Got any pets that could have knocked it off the counter?

4k, Im not going to beat his, maybe call the cops. problem is chicago cops won't care.

Im having someone check out all the local pawn shops. Im not a vengeful person. I have been extremely generous with this friend. I can accept getting ripped off as a bad decision, but this is more personal.

MrIzzz · 08-04-2004, 09:46 PM

give it another day and if the watch doesnt come up......then talk to your friend

Illicit · 08-04-2004, 09:47 PM

beat the shit out of him... and if you find it later, appologize.

Im sleeping on it. But I knew exactly where it was. I agree, no accusations until Im 100% sure its gone.

I talked to him tonight about it, said theres been two people in this house today and my gf surely didnt do it. He was acting pretty guilty. Its not the $, its the principal, me and him go way back.

It was laying in my kitchen, I can agree that I should put it somewhere safe, but I didn't expect this to happen. Its not the 4k that Im mad

Yes! Someone or some thing always. It's almost like your doomed to a predefined amount of something and if you get too much the yang snatches up the slack!

Why the fuck do you have a friend like this? Seriously man, time to reconsider. Whether or not he stole your watch, you are letting him walk all over you. What kind of friend is that? He doesn't respect you at all. Fuck that shit!

HizAzPhun · 08-04-2004, 10:13 PM

Forgot to say, not only does he not respect you .. but as long as you put up with this shit (AGAIN, whether or not he stole your watch) you are not asking for his respect or respecting yourself.

That sucks man and you don't need it.

-J

BradM · 08-04-2004, 10:15 PM

Kick his ass. Ask questions later without a doubt.

well, you know how in college its ok to show up at someones house or whatever? he has that mentallity, Its happened before and I bitched him out. If noone is answering the door do not disturb.

cold_ice · 08-04-2004, 10:24 PM

The funny thing is you still call the fucking stealing scum bag a friend

not 100% sure yet.

anyways, best advice I got so far from a friends was call the cops. which I will most likely do. Id prefer to handle the matter professionally somehow.

Zerof8 · 08-04-2004, 10:51 PM

It kind of depends:
How much do you like the guy?
and How bad he was hurting for money?
because people will do what they have to to eat, but you still cant trust him. If you flawnt wealth in front of people who dont have anything they will be prompted to steal although they normally wouldnt

I would probably beat his ass

lim_joe · 08-04-2004, 10:59 PM

I have soooo been down this road before. Basically it's just me and my GF now. My success has alienated everyone else I knew.

fr8 · 08-05-2004, 12:31 AM

Not much you will be able to do. If you found out that night you could of done something. Breaking and entering, ect.

problem becomes, is when you're young.

This dude needed $ so bad at one point and I didn't give it to him out of the principal that we're adults and you need to learn to deal with your own mistakes, makes you a stronger person.

I am now realizing that "some" people take that offensively, and build annimosity towards you.

anyways, my watch is gone. Fuck him. Even after being through so many trials and tribulations together. I am disgusted right now.

Goatse · 08-05-2004, 01:54 AM

Why do people have friends after high school? What is the purpose of spending time with other grown-up males, unless you're a repressed homosexual?

Anyway, just buy replica watches the next time.

{fusion} · 08-05-2004, 02:01 AM

prick dont respect you. go and kick the fucking living shit out of him, get the watch back.

Vitasoy · 08-05-2004, 02:07 AM

Sad, but true. When my place got robbed they stole my laptop, 2 cell phones, 2 cameras, (prescription meds???) and a checkbook they wrote about $20k of checks on (I caught the first one I shut down the acccount but he/she/they continued to write them.)

The police never called me once, I had to badger them and that even resulted in NOTHING.

my life story

I call it a reality check...whenever things are going too well I know that something is going to happen to screw around with it..when things are going too well we let our guards down and allow ourselves to be vulnerable b/c we are so "happy" I always give myself the "smack on the back of the head" to remind myself that life is not perfect and I need to remember that at all times..

blazin · 08-05-2004, 08:01 AM

Get some friends together and put him in the trunk of your car and take him to some woods. Damn sure he'll fess up.
