[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]none of whom offered to help or bring a meal.What do you all do who have no local family and no village when a difficult health situation occurs and you have no backup help and no support?  I feel like the lack of support/loneliness was just as bad as not having any practical backup help.[/quote]Recently, a guy in my games group needed a ride home (Uber not allowed) to have an endo/colonoscopy.  He asked everyone in the group for weeks.  Finally I asked him if I asked him to take off time during the workweek to drive four hours would he do it for me?  He blatantly didn't agree.  He again pressured me to give him a ride and again I asked if he'd do it for me, explaining how difficult and expensive it would be for me.  He again didn't agree but had his nurse pressure me to come pick him up.  Finally, I caved my husband convinced me to help him in spite of what kind of person he was.  He brags about being so rich he is Santa for his family, his fancy place, his $K lego collection, and his new cushy cleared job at Microsoft.  He had me drive hours in rush hour.  He didn't even offer gas money.  At our next games meeting he was rude asking is anyone here other than {me}.  He makes comments about how attractive people have bad personalities.  He doesn't understand why he doesn't have a wife yet (at 31).

OP, I am point-blank asking you dead seriously to be my village.  WOULD YOU TAKE 1-DAY LEAVE TO GIVE ME A RIDE DURING THE WORKWEEK?  Would you bring me food and help if my husband was sick?[/quote]

Well then you need a new village and husband[/quote]Why do I need a new husband?[/quote]
