Is It Always N Behavior to Violate Others' Boundaries?
BonesMS:
Recently, my car started acting up and BF asked me to call NDoofus to help me with transportation. I refuse to do that.
Bones
Certain Hope:
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, Bones... car troubles are a pain. I take it that bf is not mechanically inclined, and - in customary Mr. Fix-It manner - he's providing you what is (to him!) the simplest remedy for the problem. Ahem.
I hope you know a reliable, trustworthy mechanic who'll diagnose the trouble! Especially, I hope it's nothing too serious or costly, Bones. If you can afford it, maybe a rental car would alleviate the transportation stresses while your own vehicle is in the shop? I know, that's alot of if's, but... a proactive approach which doesn't involve N's or Doofuses is always best, imo.
With love,
Carolyn
Leah:
Oh, Bones,
With your work and activities, you really need your car, and, do hope that you can find a reliable, affordable, car mechanic. Is there anyone you can ask, maybe, your colleagues may be able to recommend someone to you?
Hope you have gained your strength back, following your recent recovery from flu.
Thoughts of you.
Love, Leah

Thanks, Carolyn!
I've taken the car to a reliable mechanic. The cause is still a mystery so the assessment is still ongoing. BF has never been mechanically inclined. His expertise is in mathematics and astrophysics, not automotive engineering. If my car was the USS Enterprise, he is definitely NOT Scotty!

I have a mechanic conducting an ongoing assessment with my car even at this writing. We both know something is happening everytime the weather gets rainy, cold and nasty but the exact cause is still being elusive.
