Default When it rains it pours?

I don't know if any of you out there are superstitious but I am. I think its true that bad things come in threes. In the past week I have had my first girlfriend ever dump me so she can be free for the summer and party with her friends, got two flat tires in my car, and didnt get picked for a job I desperately wanted. Ugh, hopefully next week will be better with an interview I have in Boston. Sorry for the rant.

Nah,,,,no such thing as bad luck. We make our own luck and life happens while we're busy living. Noone gets out alive and you leave the same way you come in,,,,I'd get another GF and buy replacement tires with the insurance in case they go flat. Jobs,,,well, there's gotta be something out there for ya. Good luck!

Hey brother, rough times hit us all. Its the way we deal with it that defines who we are.

Things will improve in time, and maybe something positive can come out of the negative.

I can't say it better than this ^, but I'll add my best wishes for a turn around for you.

I always figure that life averages out. After the week you had, you are due for a turn-around. Hang in there.

Here's how I see it. Girlfriend dumps you. = next. Two flats tires = two new ones. Job u wanted? = the better job u need.
I find many times that things work the way they do for a reason. I hope the next girl is even hotter, and that the old one finds out the new one is hotter.

SB - Fixed it for you.

Great advice as always guys, yeah I am glad I havent made a choice based on her. I have my state department interview in boston monday and my border patrol interview June 17. I can now focus on them and not be worried about having to leave her behind.

Two flats? Did you hit something? I would be pretty suspicious when I suddenly develop two flats.
