Ever see a student rack up nearly 2 grand in cell phone fees because they wanted to cancel? I have, and they did nothing outrageous.

Several years ago, a buddy's teenage daughter managed to rack up many hundreds of dollars in text message overage charges, so yeah. I think it was close to a grand.

A lot of plans are now unlimited (*), but not all of them, and it wasn't that long ago that unlimited anything was a tiny minority exception rather than the rule. I've heard claims from some Europeans that their unlimited plan costs about a third of what mine does ($40 for my share of a family plan, unlimited text, unlimited data (5GB at LTE speed), 750 shared any time minutes (I use less than 60 a month). Then again, that does include the monthly payment for my phone, so I'm not gonna complain.

(*) See fine print.

If I lived nearer to you I know a girl I would like to give a piece of my mind. -_-

Thanks - at least you get it (no disrespect to everyone else).

Sorry, I obviously don't know the backstory.

It's okay, not many do. I might have call for your offer in the future, so stay tuned.

Unfortunately, I do not live nearer. So, you're the only on who can save you. You are strong enough. Anyways, I won't air your laundry here, but just keep remembering how many people love you and reminding yourself that you never needed those who don't.

People don't seem to be wanting for what I be givin.

Help sometimes comes from unsolicited places. Be a shame to refuse it.

I know it's time for a change, but I'd honestly rather just lie here with you until the end of time. My motivation is the prospect of feeling arms wrapped around me tightly without being afraid.
