Guy, please share this for me..please - Off-topic

On August 26 I bought my first car. I worked and worked on it to make it perfect. On 9/21/13 I spent 10 hours and the car was done. The next day I woke up went to church with my girlfriend like I usually do on a sunday, took her home and was on my way to watch my cousins. On the highway, I was involved in a hit and run. At this point I don't care if I reach my goal all I care is that I'm alive. And just by reading this or leaving me a comment makes me feel better. Thank you

Sorry, but we're not here to help make you money. Thread closed.

Glad you are okay. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that link is against the rules & you should know the rules by now. I couldn't imagine what xda would be like if everyone asked for donations. It would be like a 24/7 charity event with a million users :\

[UPDATE 2.20.11] Attn: DADDIEDIESEL Lives

One of our senior members, DaddieDiesel is in the hospital and has sustained some very serious injuries as of last night. I received a PM from his sister, as many of you may have, that he and his daughter were on a Daddy Daughter Valentine's Day date. They were walking across the road and were hit by a car. He shielded his little girl, and she isn't hurt too bad. When he took the blow for her, he took it hard. Many broken bones, a punctured lung, and a serious blow to the head when he hit the pavement. His condition is unknown, and he is currently unconscious in the ICU.
I don't know how many of you know him, but he's my friend. He has been there for me through all of my recent sadness... miscarriage and breakup of my long term relationship... calling and texting everyday just to make me laugh so that I don't fall apart. And even though I havent known him long... I feel like I've known him forever. He's my ChiTown, and I'm his ChuckTown. He's my friend, and I'm asking that you all please keep him, his little girl, and his entire family in your thoughts. Until he wakes up... I don't know what I'm gonna do without his daily calls, texts, and retarted ass picture mails he always sends just to make me smile. I'm not normally big on prayer... but I am now. For him.
UPDATE: FURTHER AND MORE DETAILED INFO FROM FAMILY ON DADDYDIESEL'S CONDITION
Dan sustained dislocations to his right hip and shoulder. 4broken ribs. Of which punctured his lung. Shattered his knee cap. Swelling in his brain from his head hitting so hard that it busted it open. His hand is badly swollen because he held his daughters head from also hitting the concrete. But after this mornings surgery we had a better outlook. He awoke for a bit confused at first because he didnt know where he was, but after we calmed him he immiediatly asked for his daughter.
Thank you for your kind words and let everyone know that he is doing better but not out of the woods yet. Still has a ton of swelling and it is still a concern.
Thank you for the prayers and either my sister or I will let you know more information as we can.
UPDATE 2.16.11:
Dan has been awake for longer periods. He still is unable to speak due to his breathing tube. When he does wake
he continues to be very confused and angry.It takes him a bit but he does realize where he is and seems to understand.
The first thing he does do is ask about his daughter by pointing to his tattoo of her. Which the doctors say is a good sign.
When we(dan's other sister and I)left this afternoon the doctors were hoping to remove his breathing tube later today.
The lingering concern is still the swelling but if you know my brother not much is gonna keep him down.
We have had great support from a couple of his rugby friends,his biker friends, and co-workers even to the fact of
taking time off work and picking my sister from the airport when she arrived.
For many years we all looked down on Dan for the things he did but we never realized how much he gave up of himself
for us. To this day all he says he did what he had to.Thank god our brother was so well organized as we were able to
get his passwords to his email and his account on the wonderful community you both belong to,and contact you and
his other friends.
It seems that you and Dan have a very special relationship and my sister and i decided to let you know a bit
about Dan. We snuck in Dan's laptop in and read to him his messages and the responses to the posting you started and
he was very moved. He also tapped your picture and put his hand to his lips. Thank you again and let everyone know that
have everyone who has prayed for our brother in our prayers as well.A Special thank you to the gentleman know as
Slayer69 as his messages were very kind.And too a very special thanks thank you for being such a beautiful person
and your wonderful support. We will let you know more as we know. thank you.
UPDATE 2.17.11:Dan had his breathing tube removed. He cant speak all that well and ended up
losing a molar.He has to try and write alot of what he wants to say.
But still a great sign. Tomorrow the plan on moving
him hopefully out of ICU. Also plan on getting him some movement
via therapy for his knee so it doesnt atrophy. We got his old
phone and will try to sneek it into him as he wants to get his messages,and make a few calls.
Its Dan being himself and nothing is gonna slow that guy down. He thinks he will be
out in time for his birthday next week. You know my brother
not much is gonna slow him down, apperantly not even getting hit by a car.
We all have our fingers crossed and know that all the prayers from everyone
on the website you and Dan belong to have helped. Thank you again from our
entire family. Dan sends his love to you especially.
UPDATE 2.18.11: Guess who just got a very personal update from the man himself? Me!! That's whassup. DaddieDiesel just called a few minutes ago and talked as long as he could before the meds started kicking in. He sounds like he got hit by a car! See... we can laugh about it now... lol. Got to, right? He is going to be fine, but in alot of pain as you can imagine. It was so good to hear his voice. When I saw "ChiTown" pop up on my caller ID... I almost cried. But enough about me... He says to tell ALL of you, "Thank you for all of your thoughts and support. I'm no hero, I'm just a Daddy. I do what I gotta do."
NOTE: Aight we gotta switch it up... flip the script right here since everything looks good for him now. Everyone here knows Dan's username here on XDA is DaddieDiesel. Fabulous. Call him what you will... DaddieDiesel, Dan, Double D... it's all good (except maybe that last one, he probably won't be feeling that one... lol) But I started this thread, and if you've read through all the updates... you've heard me call him ChiTown. So from here on out, all updates from ME specifically will be addressing him as such. Roll with it.
UPDATE 2.20.11:So where's whats new with this bad ass HERO named ChiTown. Most recent news from his equally bad ass sisters: His days are long, his nights are longer. Today will be his third day going through very, very painful physical therapy. He is pissy, they say... alot of swearing! But trust me... that's nothing new with ChiTown... lmao. The man has a mouth ALOST as dirty as mine. Tomorrow will be the one week mark since the accident. He hates hospitals more than most people who hate hospitals. His doctor continues to say its nothing short of a miracle that his head didn't split completely open when he hit the pavement. Yesterday's MRI results were looking good, which is awesome. And the doctors are happy with the way everything continues to be improving so rapidly. Now if he'd just get over this big ass knot on his head and grow some hair back where it had to be shaved to put him back together... then maybe he'd let this ChuckTown girl jack a plane and come say whassup...
Never heard of him, but i'll make sure to keep him in my prayers
Sorry to hear that...I wish him a speedy recovery....
He'll be in my prayer list. If you can talk to him, ask him to stay strong.
I hope everything works out for them. I am currently undergoing something myself so I understand how it feels. I hope the best for him and his family.
-There is a 35% chance that right now I'm on the toilet-
Although I don't know him I wish him the best in his recovery
I'm new here and so of course I don't know him, but I'll most definitely pray for him.
The selfless act of being brave even knowing the danger is my ultimate definition of courage, and I hope everyone else here will join me in agreement on that point.
The world is desperately in need of more brave and courageous heroes like Dan.
I'll pray for him.
I'll pray for him to recover and gain all strength.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
hearing news like this is always upsetting and tough.
I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers.
Even though I don't know him I wish him the best of recovery. He gives me hope.
selflessness defines self.
with no personal connection i still offer him and his family the highest respect and deepest compassion. thanks op.

Well, it does seem like he didn't suffer any brain damage from the latest update. I'm sure that he'll make a full recovery!
Yay! What a miracle he survived!

Serious Prayer Chain ( My Friend )

Hi everyone, I wanted to start this to give support and have some help from around the World. One of my good friends was driving the other night from work to home and was involved in a wreck. The situation is that he goes to school in the morning to 12pm in the afternoon, then has to be at work from 4 to 12am at night. He was driving like normal but as person in this state he was very tired. And fell asleep at the wheel not knowing it he had crashed into construction along the highway. The wreck was pretty severe and the car was not identifiable because of the wreck, Police had to ask what car it was. He is a very good kid, and is only 18 I believe he deserves more years in Life, and deserves a good experience in Life.
I Feel like it would be very nice for anyone that could help with just a simple prayer. If those who are not religious or don't believe in God, at least show a little support and be kind.
I thank everyone who participates and hope to God that he can live and survive this.
Thank You All.

I don't believe in God - there is just too much in this world for that - but my thoughts are with your friend and his family and friends.
Hi!
I have to confess, that I'm not a religious guy. But I hope that your friend will be back for good soon and will be able to have a normal life!
Things like this can happen to anyone at anytime.
ALL THE BEST FOR HIM!
Well im kind of religious but at the same time im not i believe theres a heaven and hell and GOD & DEVIL. i have faith but i dont believe in churches there are too many versions of everything so i dont go to church but i started this thread tooday but it happened to him on June 2, 2012. But today i went to the hospital and found out he is brain dead and there donating his organs. its just not fair that he was only 18, had so much in life to look foward too.
Thanks again guys.
Very sad story, I will keep his family and friends in mind.
@ XxLostSoulxX
Thanks for letting us know. My thoughts are with his family at this time, and I hope that something good can come out of their loss in other lives saved by the donation of his organs.
May God help him and give strength to his family and friends, that including you for your support and loyalty. May Also fill all of you with wisdom and serenity for your prayers and soft heart for those who are in need.
I hope that your friend can find heal and calm, all in God's Hands.

Love and relationship thread

This is thread about love. Just be on topic and share ur love stories, how u first met then what things happened, where is ur plan for honeymoon, if u thought of marriage or not, also share the current status of relationship.
Here is my brief story:
1 year before I met her in my course. It was love at first sight, required to do some efforts to convince her and now we are in love with each other, talking daily non-stop for hours.
She apparently had a thing for me for a longer while, which I kinda expected.
After not too long though, she kinda stopped communicating (or did it very weirdly), and it remained silent for a while.
She talked to everyone but me and decided it wasn't gonna work. I kinda got pushed aside, so that's a thing. Felt pretty ****ty about it (I feel my time was wasted), but I pity the (now female) fool that has to be with her now.
So was that too negative?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
I used to love her so much. Her ginger hair was so fluffy and beautiful. We used to eat together and sometimes i used to feed her. We had like the strongest bond ever. She used to sit on my lap and we used to play games
Last year she was diagnosed with an incurable disease and died four months later. I miss my cat.
well, hate to be the off topic party pooper moderator. But I am having a seriously hard time wondering why we needed to create a thread such as this. If anyone can convince me or any of the other moderators to open or reopen this thread feel free to send me or any other moderator a PM.

Please read and share this post

Hey everybody, I am not posting to my own Facebook don't expect this to go anywhere, just need to vent I guess you can say. I was with a girl in 2012 she became pregnant and everything was going great. Well when I got with her I didn't know much about her past relationship. She wasn't just someone I had knew her back in highschool an when we got together it was many years after. I digress anyway she told me she was pregnant great awesome everything seemed to be going okay. Suddenly she stopped contact with me, she went back to her ex of 4years. He knew full well it was not his child. One day I get a message on the internet from her roommate saying she was posting that was in labor. Well her roommate comes down and I find out she cut ties with her roommate as well. But that wasn't it the day before she had slept with me she had slept with her ex roommates husband and then a couple hours later their best friend. Needless to say the child could've been anyone's I accepted the fact and we all went to the hospital she was giving birth at. When we went into the room her ex now again boyfriend was there and she wanted nothing to do with us and would not let us get a paternity test. She let her boyfriend sign as the father of the child again he knows full well the child isn't his. Me and the other potential fathers went to court to try and do it ourselves to order a paternity test but she ignored it all. Then to demand answers or so I thought I went to child support went through that ordeal. An basically was told since her boyfriend signed paternity of child nothing could be done and they would not force her to come. How could that be?? If I was a mother wanting to know they would rip heaven and hell to get me answers. But as a potential father wanting to know answers I was basically thrown out like I didn't matter. The baby was born June 29th 2013 and she is absolutely gorgeous from the pictures I gathered from the web. Everyday it eats me not to know the answers and be a father to an absolute angel. I know 2000 isn't a lot but I have had a horrible year with a layoff because of a really bad car accident. I'm not asking for a handout I would gladly pay back once I get the ball rolling on a job once again. Thank you

I'm truly sorry if this is what's happened, but there's nothing we can do to help. The forum is not here to make money, and for that reason I've removed your link and will close the thread. Please don't post the link again.

Do you want to change my life?

Hello everyone,
my name is Henri and I want you to gift me five thousand three hundred and eighty-nine dollars.
5437$ or about 4800€. (Rates May 13,2015 GMT)
If you have not clicked away yet, let me explain:
I live in Berlin, Germany and I am 21 years old.
When I was about 16 years old I was moderate to severe depressed. Thought about killing myself, cried myself to sleep et cetera. I don't want to go into detail with this, because you have all heard those heartbreaking stories before.
Anyway, I got over it. I did not go into therapy. Instead I decided to fix the problems which depressed me. Those were mostly that I did not have a social life at all and had a good amount of social anxiety.
I wasn't able to ask an elderly woman for the time on the streets, started sweating when people I didn't know talked to me in school and so on.
And obviously, I didn't have any female contact besides my mother and sister.
In 2011 I had a breakdown and decided that I had to change or I would eventually kill myself in a weaker moment.
I went out to fix my social life and become happy. And I succeeded.
Long story short: I pushed myself into social interactions, pushed myself to talk to girls. On this journey I found awesome friends, two especially which could not be closer to me. One of them had the same goals as I, wanted to overcome all social borders there are.
I also met a lot of great girls, eventually other guys asked me for advice.
I was the happiest person I knew.
This is when I and and the friend mentioned above decided that we could actually teach other guys to get to where we are.
We are currently building a German website where we want to give advice for young guys on talking to girls, fitness, having great sex, fashion, hygiene, motivation, discipline, managing happy relationships and ironically living a happy life.
Ironically, because right now I am depressed as f**k again. This is because I don't have money, my parents don't have enough to support me. I got a job, but I literally started crying there because I felt so miserable. At home I feel miserable because I have no money. I am working in sales without base salary.
My expenses are about 600€ a month. In Germany, parents get some money for their „childs“ as long as they study, so I get close to 200€ a month from them. 400€ left.
My options right now are :
1) „Manning up“ and work and hope that therapy fixes this.
2) Getting student loans and go to university in a field with which I will be able to pay back the roughly 20.000€ in loans, just so that I do not have to work right now and can put my energy into the website.
3) Moving back into my parent's place on the other side of the country and everything on hold. They live in small village, so I won't be able to meet and advice people, talk to girls, network etc.
I would give up everything I built here.
Yesterday I decided to give another idea a shot. The idea you are reading right now.
I figured if I could get 4800 people to give me 1€ each, I could live one year without stress.
12 months times 400€ is 4800€.
I am convinced that my website and other projects will make enough money for me after this year.
If not, and this is a very small if, I will be where I am right now again, hopefully with more valuable lessons learned, happy and therefore able to work a normal job if I have to.
You see, I am basically asking you for time. I realize that 1$/1€ isn't much, but if you gave it to everyone you'd be dead broke. I do not know how I can convince you that I deserve this money more than anyone else, but I know that all I need right now is this money to handle this situation and put all my energy into the website and hopefully helping others.
I am asking you to gift me your next coffee, ice cream cone or burger.
If just 1% of the people reading this decides to help me out with one dollar, I have to show this to 543,700 people.
This is why I actually looked up the biggest online communities and I am posting this to every single one that can somehow relate to my situation or the subjects of our site. Some just seem to have cool people in them.
As you will see, there isn't any content up yet. We already have a lot but want to publish about ten good articles for the start. And yes, this is a working-title
If this post gets removed because it violated any specific rule I understand that and want you to know that it wasn't on purpose. I also tried to post into Off-Topic or similar.
If you have any questions, I will answer them as soon as I can.
Please don't give us advice on the design or that wordpress „is bad“. I appreciate it, but I want to answer questions about the content, our goals and whatnot instead of discussing webdesign. So far we have been working on content only.
The site as it stands is just a vehicle for the donate page, since sites like „fundme“ take 30cents per donation plus fees.
Again, all I am asking for is 1$ to solve all my problems for one year.
Thank you for your time.

While many of us, myself included, sympathize with your issue, this site is not the place for raising funds for yourself. This is against forum rules and is simply not allowed.
