If your SO disappeared, you worried for days, then found out he/she was in the hospital (for whatever reason), would you HONESTLY put responding to this thread (where people also said nasty things while you were suffering with worry) in your top 100 list of things to do this week? Even if she is in the hospital for a relatively minor reason, his concern and need to focus on her welfare at the moment, vastly outweighs his need to respond to our curiosity, no matter how well intentioned.

Not if she was sleeping with some other dude. I'd probably make up some story about how she was in the hospital and hope everyone felt really bad and that this thread would die.

lol...i shouldnt laugh at that, but it was amusing :laugh:
 
She was in a car wreck with a friend. She was rushed to hospital and regained consciousness this morning & is in a stable state. She had a work-permit id on her which did not list her address and having moved recently, no one could figure out where she lived. Thankfully, she had insurance and so did the driver of the car.

Thanks to one of the helpful members on this board, I was able to contact a hospital hotline and track her.

She's been my girlfriend for 4 years and yes, in real life.

Why did I come to ATOT with this? Because there are helpful people here, people who may have experienced similar situations. I got the hotline number within a few minutes of posting.

Everyone who cared and was concerned, thanks - I appreciate it.

To the people who made a mockery of the situation, I hope that you never have to go thru a similar situation involving a loved one.

thanks for the update. hope she continues to improve rapidly. how is her friend?

don't take the sarcastic responses in this thread too seriously. this is the internet, and it's hard not to be desensitized thanks to all the not so honest drama that does tend to show up from time to time.
the bottom line is that by posting this you got very valuable info making it worth it.

i gotta say that is some long distance relationship... NYC to Zimbabwe? are there plans to move?

You know man, at first I was angry with all the jerks in this thread making fun of you, but now I see you're no better. Wtf, you come here with a real problem several people try to help you and you just leave us hanging.

I realize your attention might be elsewhere right now, but majority of people here are genuinely concerned. So you apparently had time to go online and say that you're flying to NYC, yet you failed to tell us if everything is ok or not. This leads me to believe that you're either made this up as a cry for attention or just an ungrateful brat you can't appreciate when other people are being concerned. This is exactly the reason why I try to stay away from posting advice in such threads.

he posted he would be flying out to NYC. he probably flew out last night. he is in a hotel room. mb posting here isn't a top priority for him. i wouldn't blame him.

at least give him a week or so to recover.

:roll:

it's not like his GF was local. if she lived in the same city, he might never have posted. but if his story is true, posting here at ATOT was a very important part of him finding out what happened to her.

so what is there to criticize? why bother calling it a "community" if you think anyone that shares anything that is an emergency needs to get a life?

i have to agree. i might post it here if i needed to get some help fast, like where to call for information, and things like that.

cynicism aside, there are some good people on the net who really truly want to and will help you out.

Agreed.

Glad she's ok. If my comments came out the wrong way, I appologize.
