ss wrecker Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 i got a wrecker call for a city vehicle involved in an accident on my night off, our driver that was on call was already at the wreck but he was there on our rotation call from the city for a wrecked car. all the city vehicles are towed by our company so we needed another wrecker there. the girlfriend and i had just gotten home and were about to go to bed when the call came in(i was pissed, but had to go) told her i would be back asap. on the way to the wreck they cancelled both the rotaion and city vehicle tow because they were driveable. so it urned around and was back at the house 5 minutes from when i left and she was long gone.

Black2003SS Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 How long were you guys together? Were there other problems? This could be a blessing disguise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss wrecker Posted July 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 we were together for just over a year. she compalined that on my night off i would answer my phone. a night off for me means i'm not the first one called but instead the 3rd so it has to be a real emergncy for me to be called on my night off. she didn't understand that i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big O Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 You don't really have night offs when you do what you do, especially at the level you do. If she can't handle that then it is probably better to get it out now, rather than waste anymore time spinning your wheels. Hopefully she will come to here senses and you guys can hammer it out. She has to realize you don't work an 8-5 job. But you get to do things that an 8-5er doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brobradh77 Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) Sorry Justin that sucks. I only got to meet her for a second and i got the impression she wasn't into the GTG because she never got out of truck once at the race track. She may just feel she is last on your list of things to do and girls dont go for that very long at all. They want to have an occasional night where it is just her and only her and in my opinion thats not asking too much but some people have jobs that don't allow it so it dont work out. Keep your head up there is more fish in the sea. Edited July 21, 2007 by brobradh77 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hankg42 Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 That suck bro. It looks like all of us are loosing our girls. I just got through the first week after my 3 year X broke up with me last Friday night. Hang in there bro and things will get better. There seems to be too much of this going on here lately with members of the opposite sex. I guess we've all been through it, but it sucks to hear about it none the less. Hang in there. Better times (and relationships) are coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireRescueSS Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 You'll find the right girl, that understands, and respects the kind of man you are, and the way of life you live, which it is a way of life, not a job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuzman Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Here's a little story about a guy I used to work with. We were both towing for AAA in So. Cal about 1000 years ago. He gets called out to an accident scene one night. T1 between a Porsche and some shit box sedan. It was weird because AAA trucks didn't get called to too many accident scenes then, but the Porsche driver was a member and demanded a AAA truck. Turns out she was totally hot, totally loaded and totally cool. It was supposed to be his night off and he was filling in for another guy in his shop. She was worried nobody else would know how to tow her Porsche. They've been married for a number of years now and the last I heard had a couple of kids. You never know how it's gonna happen. Oh, and I think they still have the Porsche too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 That's a stupid reason... She will be back.... Sorry but that's god-damned funny right there. We were both towing for AAA in So. Cal about 1000 years ago. ...Ahhh I see you sold your soul to the Devil too. OH wait, that's right I forgot - you're an ATTORNEY J. sorry man, if it helps at all I totally know the feeling. That was a big factor in the split with my wife, I have a career with a very high degree of comittment like that and in our relationship she stuck with it (for many years) but she always really took it personally that I was up at all hours of the night writing code or rescuing servers or fighting virus outbreaks or whatever the emergency was at the time. And I never understood why she got pissed about it because I assure you my work never interferred with our intimate life, but she was always upset that I was not doing what SHE thought I should be doing. This situation, although painful, is very easy and clear-cut: one of two things is happening, either (a) you made a promise or committment (think of it as an "appointment") to be with her at that time and you could not fulfill that commitment; or (b) you never communicated any promise or committment to exclusively be with her at that time and she's upset that you are not acting like she wishes you would. In the first case, that's you not meeting your end of the relationship; in the second case it's her having a passive-aggressive outburst. I agree she's probably not leaving (because of other tells that I've seen & heard), this is more than likely just a passive-aggressive (hostile) attempt on her part to jerk your chain and get you to conform to her picture of what life should be like according to her immagination, rather than be accepting of the life you have chosen to live and the reality it comes with. She is not living in reality, or at least your reality anyways. My 2-cents - any woman/family/friend that you share your life with needs to accept that you are always on-call, and that means BOTH of you need to enjoy each other in the moment as you get the moments, and that those moments are precious because you could be called to duty at any time. Actually that's good advice for everyone, because living opposite to this is just taking the other person for granted. My 2-cents. Mr. P.
