    Why Taco has been alittle slow

    Well I just wanted to finally come on and give my apologies and reasons why I have been alittle on the slow side.

    My current run of fett belts has slowed mostly due to the fact that my Hobby Lobby's are not carrying enough balsa wood and are slow to restock. So I do apologize for that.

    But the biggest reason is this.

    Most of you were notified by myself that I'm going to be a new daddy in Feb. Well as of this past week I found out that is no longer going to happen. Not because of a miscarriage. But because my gf lied to me. I know. I could not believe the extent she went to make me believe the whole thing for 7 months.

    I started to get questions in my mind because she was not showing after some time. But figured every ones different. With all the fake doctor appointments, going to baby registries, birthing classes, etc. I didn't have any reason to believe it wasn't true. She makes one hell of an actor I'll tell you that. When I found, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I had that look of a deer with on coming headlights. I could not believe it and still don't.

    So why am I slowing down? Well its because I'm having to clean up a whole lot of mess she cause me to get into. The biggest thing was our new house that is being built. I mean I'm not going to stay with her anymore but I can't afford the new house on my own. So I don't know what I'm going to tell the builder.

    I've had to cancel classes, and such and I cant believe some of them are still going to charge me for remaining classes that I won't even attend. Lost a huge deposit on the room that was suppose to be for next months baby shower.

    So here I am, moved back in with the family. A tiny room to do my work in and lots of things to clean up ahead. Its not going to be pretty but I'll get through it and finish everything. All I can ask for, is just the patience of members here. Things will move faster now due to the fact that I don't have to go to any more appointments, and that I have lost my job since I was actually working for her fathers business.

    Just wanted everyone to know.

    She said it was because she never had a bf that treated her right. How she expected to explain that lie later is beyond me.

    ****. That is crazy stuff man. I hate to hear that happened to you. Best of luck in the future. You may be able to sell the house to someone once it's built.

    At least you are being up front with everyone about why they may not have received their stuff. Which considering some of the threads that have popped up lately is way more than I've seen others do.
    Good luck with getting things sorted out.

    Say WHAT!?

    I'm not going to pretend to know how you feel but i've been in a similar situation. It seems that some people belive that they don't deserve their good fortune and so they become self-destructive.

    I had an ex-girlfriend that cheated on me because she thought that i was too good for her...

    Anyway... you will be better off with out her in the long run.

    it's a tv show that was on this year... that was actually one of the central plots. wife fears her husband is leaving her, so she fakes pregnancy to keep him around. she was even wearing pads on her belly to look bigger.

    I'm sorry to hear abut that, man. Betrayal by women you love... it's just the worst. I've been lied to about important things, and it really sucks. But we can all persevere. The best of luck to you, my friend. May your future be prosperous.

    A lie like that does say things about that person.

    I guess time to let her go and move on.

    Thank God you are not yet married to her.

    Wow, man I hate to hear this happen to anybody. Can't really fathom someone lying about such a thing and thinking that it'll all work out in the end.... To bounce off what some of the others have said, better to know now rather than settled into the new house?

    In any case you'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Hope you're doing alright considering the situation, and that things will get going the way of fantastic really soon.

    Hey Taco, coming from someone who is waiting on one of your belts, I just gotta say there are more important things in life, brother. I'm as anxious and excited to finish my costume as the next would-be Fett, and I can't speak for the other guys in line, but take as much time as you need to get mine done. A few deep breaths and some quality time with your family might just go further than you think. All the best, brother.

    My friend did this and won. Sued for breach of contract and fraud. It's BS. Find a pro bono lawyer and go for it. Sorry brother.

    Re: Why Taco has been alittle slow

    You know, alot of people have been telling me to do that. It may be the American way, but it isn't my way. I truly loved her, and its because of those feelings I had that I can not cause her any pain or suffering. What she did was wrong, but I forgive her. I won't continue to see her but I do forgive her. Lots of my family and close friends hate that I'm not taking her to court. Just like the time I could have sued Target. I was kinda power walking to the electronics section cause I was eager to get something. There was a small puddle of water on the floor with no warning sign and I took a big step into it and went up and over. My feet clearing my head. I'm sure it was a site to see. I hurt myself pretty good. But I did not sue them for anything. I don't feel like it was the stores fault. I feel it was part my fault for not looking where I was going. I'm just taking it as another experience, just got a little bit wiser.
