What would you have done?

I find it surprising how paranoid people are about giving out their address...I mean, it's not like we all have secret invisible houses that can't be seen as it is.

 

 

 

Yeah, agreed - I personally don't do it because I don't live alone and it isn't just me that could possible be endangered.

 

what about your cat?

 

 

 

on topic, I think it was good the OP did what he did, although I prolly wouldn't have done that. depends on what their texts said.

I would have gone to the point where I'd call the people, but I'd hide in somewhere so that only the person who I called would find it. I'd be paranoid about the real owner of the phone finding out that I sold it.

I'd have done the exact same thing

No matter what the avatar looks like, I'm male

same thing happened to me, but I knew the girl who owned the phone. She's one of those really [bleep] girls who has way too much money and takes everything for granted, thinks she's better than everyone else, and acts like the world revolves around her.

 

I kept her phone. stupid [bleep] got another god damn blackberry the next day.

 

 

 

A true sign of being a good person isn't doing nice things for people you don't know; it's doing nice things for people who don't deserve it. I would've given the phone back.

 

Yup, it really sucks to lose your phone, even if you have the money/insurance to get another one. Good going OP, I would've done the same thing. :thumbup:

i dont know what i would do

 

if it was a really expensive phone i probably would try and return it, if it was a cheapo one id probably just give it to a mate or sumthing

thanks to mitsubishi64 who made this sig

I got my iPod stolen back in December. It irritates me that people don't turn in what's not theirs. You did the right thing.

I used to think that too until a child predator got a hold of my land line number and house address when I was younger.

 

 

 

And once I put too many details on the internet and was harassed not too long ago.

 

 

 

I agree with abby - Your house wasn't the best meeting place, probably would have been better in a public place with someone you know. But what's done is done.

The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.
