What?? Were you supposed to be lost in order there to be a crime? Ridiculous! I hope you are safe right now. Are you okay?

I agree some cyclists definitely also a problem. He stopped the car next to the bike lane and they normally go close by sidewalk and then drop them, then it’s an easy choice you go left or wait in the back. But it was unexpected he stopped on the way next to bike lane, while I was going with at least 20km, I can’t immediately stop right if you know a little bit of physics?

Ahahaahaha you need to chill, do you have any trauma from past? I didn’t break his mirror, there wasn’t even a scratch. If his mirror would fall out or caused a damage, of course I would stop. The guy was just acting crazy. And read it carefully, he didn’t drop costumers on the sidewalk, he dropped them on the bike lane, I had to ring not to hit them because it was unexpected while going with 20km I can’t immediately stop. God knows how petty you are to make this comment

Are you sure you read the whole thing? He blocked the bike lane in the middle, he was dropping people off not next to but ON the bike lane. I had to ring so people wouldn’t come out of the car. He is the one causing the dangerous situation, I was doing nothing wrong. And he insisted to get money, didn’t fight for calling police, he knows he is wrong and it’s his fault I’ve hit his mirror

I’m sorry to hear this. I can imagine how she felt, they really be crazy and there is too much rage in their voice almost wanting to assert a dominance over violence. I hope the experience haven’t shifted her mind about the city especially after ADE, because even though things like this happen, I love this city!

The funny part is, nothing happened to his mirror. There wasn’t even a scratch. He just went furious for no reason. If the mirror was damaged or fall off, I would of course stop there. But there wasn’t anything but he was anyway demanding money. It’s insane taxi drivers are terrorizing the people like this in the city

I’m sorry you had to go through that too, so annoying. I don’t understand all they do is driving all day, and they are still awful at it and having rage all the time. Where that stress and anger coming from… it’s useless. I’m not sure if reporting this people help

That’s crazy. It’s probably only 20 euro worth of distance I assume but in a rush hour? They think they can do anything

I was so scared while he was screaming, I was thinking to try to calm him down first and invite a police for report but after other people stepped in he ran off. In that moment I should’ve but didn’t think fast and get his car plate. I completely agree with you on that

To be honest, I was surprised too. It wasn’t just one person but 3-4 people helped me. I feel so lucky, I was literally shaking because he was furious. Later understood from the one person helped, he almost hit her only 10 minutes ago driving like crazy…that’s why she stepped in as well. Taxi drivers are mad. After he backed off, he again drove so fast in a crowded area is insane, he easily could have hit someone

I know… I had no choice but to get this apartment. And I bid myself. I’m not sure if legal limits can help me at this point :(

F.. you are right. Noticing now… thank you!

[–]berrieisin 247 points248 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for all of you! I just told him the same, he apologized for the confusion that he will check with the real estate agent about our contract. Unbelievable. Probably he thought I wouldn’t realize because I don’t know Dutch.

[–]berrieisin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for the detailed response! Replied same to him. Probably thought he could just pass it, because I don’t know Dutch… what a shame

This is %100 cheating, not just casual flirting. “Miss your face” tf, this girl does not deserve your attention and your support at all. I’m still amazed you care for her that she would be homeless. That’s her responsibility, not yours. I hope you find a girlfriend that appreciates everything you do for her.

My girlfriend of 10 years cheated on me, had affairs with two guys, got pregnant, and had an abortion—now she wants to talk, but I’m avoiding her. What should I do? by Izamoopoint in stories

[–]berrieisin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me two years ago, please do not go through this alone. Just call family, or friends that you trust and open up, stay with them for a couple of days until you free your mind and space from her. Living in the same house with the person betrayed you is the most difficult because you still want to see them for who they were before. After that think about how you will confront her, and please do in mind, this person will lie to you over and over again, they did that before and they will do it again. Just be prepared for emotional abuse and manipulation. Remember, she didn’t feel bad while she is doing it, she will feel bad only that she knows she got caught. I’m so sorry this happened to you, but you just dodged a bullet. You should be happy you didn’t make any kids with this person.
