Ok well where do I begin. I spoke to Dave and Elaine on Friday and I was planning of going out to New York Saturday and then leaving Sunday. Well Friday night came and I realized that I wouldn't be able to make the trip that late at night so I decided to wait until morning. Well I woke up that morning all excited about going to New York so I got my bags together and I left. I drove thru Mass, Providence and then Conn. Well after many hours of driving I decided to stop off and get something to eat. BIG MISTAKE. I was looking around and realized that I might be lost. I searched in my pocketbook for Dave's number only to realize that I had left it in my appointment book and my appointment book was at home. Dag nab it I said to myself so I looked at the directions again and asked someone at the gas station. The gas attendant told me that I was going the wrong way and explained to me which way I should go. Well I then went into the fast food place to get a bit to eat and then this guy comes over. He seemed decent (well that's what I thought). At first I wasn't paying much attention to him but he kindly came over and said to me that the directions that the gas attendant gave me would take me much longer so he said that he knew a quicker way. Well at first I didn't believe him but he told me that he was from Rochester and was just being a nice person. Why in the heck did I believe him. Well anyway I was just so excited about getting there that this guy and I talked about my CH and the people that I was going to meet. Damn he seemed so caring and so nice that I just didn't suspect a thing. Well he suddenly left saying that he needed to get on the road. We said our goodbyes and that was that. Well I am now finished eating and get my things together only to find that I have no purse. At first I thought that maybe I left it in the car but I remembered paying for my food. I then realized that I had been robbed. In my purse I had everything. My credit cards, my debit cards, my checkbook, my ids, my pictures, my makeup....I had everything. So with no money but a tank full of gas I had only one choice to make.....GO HOME. I think that I cried all the way, how was I going to explain this to my husband because he told me that I shouldn't go out there alone but I didn't listen. Finally I decided to go to the police and they were no help all they did was take down my information but pretty much told me that it was my own fault. MY OWN FAULT FOR BEING NICE!!!! I then called my best friend collect and asked her to go to my house to get Dave's number and call them to let them know that I wouldn't be coming. Well by the time I got home I needed to call creditors to let them know what happened but I couldn't call the bank until now. Well this morning I have found out that in both of my accounts I have a 0 balance. The jerk used my debit cards and he used them as credit cards so he didn't need the codes. I am so hurt right now but all I can do is say that I will pray for this man. I also must be thankful that he didn't try to harm me in anyway so I am thankful for my life. It hurts because I don't have a dime to call my own and all the money that I have saved is gone. What does one do in a situation like this except learn a lesson. I also feel so violated because someone took my niceness for weakness and now I will have to suffer for a very long time. The tears are still coming and my heart is truly broken but at least I am alive. I pray that man did some good with what he took for me somehow someway I pray he did some good. :(
