Why You Don't Do Business With "Friends"

[FastHands]

It could've been uwr's gum wrapper collection and even THAT would deserve better handling. It's about respect/integrity.

[mcmel]

I'm so sorry, UWR.

[oliviapope]

First, I am sorry she has your things. That fucking sucks. What a jerk.

Second, I feel like fucking Nancy Drew because my spidey senses tingled whenever she posted.

[tictac]

Ugh, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. I don't have kids, but I totally get the idea of certain pieces of clothing having sentimental value. It's not crazy at all to want them sent back if the agreed upon quilt is never going to come to fruition-at least if you get them back, you can find somebody new to get the job done.

[happywife]

I'm so sorry underwaterrhymes. I am super fucking pissed for you.

[happywife]

underwaterrhymes, call her out on everything. She's being shady.

[nursewife]

I'm so sorry underwaterrhymes. I'd be damn upset too.

[killercupcake]

Annnnd her shop is on a break as of today?

[sangria]

What in the fresh hell?
You have to be some kind of superdouche to do that

I'm sorry UWR.
What a crappy way to treat someone.

Yep, was just coming here to post that too. 

[underwaterrhymes]

I do think the things she shared here were at least mostly valid.

And I'm sad for her family because they've been through so much.

But she still managed to run a very successful etsy store. And, dude, I was soooooooo patient.

It is so fucking shady that she couldn't be bothered to be straight with me. She lied over and over again and then just flat out ignored me. I'm not only a paying customer, but also someone who donated funds to her and offered ongoing support emotionally. Shitty.

[sparkythelawyer]

So she has time to delete everything but not to come clean. Lovely.

[pantsparty]

Well now I'm glad I did NOT buy the gardener's gift basket from her shop.

I'm so sorry UWR This is unbelievably shitty. I can't believe this has been going on 2 YEARS.

[rosiebear]

Omg, I am so very sad and angry for you. I held my tongue about an incident a year or so ago because I felt sorry for her and she was doing something nice and when her item never came, well, what's $10? I wasn't going to call her out over it.

But now? After what she did to you? Call it all out.

I'd be heartbroken if the baby clothes I've saved were gone. I'm so so sorry.

[jezebel]

This is making me emotional. I hope she is at least shamed enough to send them back (hoping she still has them)

[silva]

I keep coming back to why.

Why? You. Are there others?

I'm so sorry, UWR.

You deserve one of these:

Everyone comes back for the drama.

[tellmesomethingood]

I'm so sorry, underwaterrhymes. That's so crappy for her to do that. I would be very upset and not as nice as you.

[slcjess]

Oh man. I came in ready to commiserate about getting low res newborn pics from a coworker but this is unbelievable. I am astonished that you would keep someone's belongings for two years, but especially to do this to someone that is so sweet and supportive is deplorable. I hope that this thread will inspire her to send them back. I'm thinking positively that she still has them and they were NOT sold in a garage sale (or whatever, I don't follow her posts really). People here have met her right? Can one of us go get them? And if not does she live anywhere near South Carolina or Florida cause I'm going there in November and I will hunt them down for you. Lol.
I'm just so sorry. I'm in shock.

[nahoku]

Oh, this sucks. I'm sorry, uwr. This would make me really, really sad. There's no excuse at this point.

[franklin]

Another person signing in to say that I'd be really upset too. I'm sorry uwr.

[elleblue]

Two years is more than enough time to finish the quilt. Or at the least send back the clothes like you asked underwaterrhymes. I'm so sorry.

And you're absolutely right about not doing business with friends. Someday I'll share the story of what happened with my wedding video.

[intentionalsnarkshark]

Wtf. This is bullshit. I'm sorry, dude.

[kaybee85]

I'm so sorry. I would be angry mostly for the same reasons you are - respect my intelligence and tell me wtf happened. Of course,the irreplaceable clothing is heartbreaking as well.

[aussiecrush]

What the hell? This makes me physically sick. Ok, you're a flake but what's wrong with you that you would keep (lose, sell, screw with) another mom's baby clothes like that.

[thedutchgirl]

This is so infuriating.

And why is the Etsy shop now on hiatus for Mother's Day items when Mother's Day was two weeks ago?

She's prepping for Mother's Day 2018.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. I really hope those clothes, or even the scraps, turn up. This is despicable.
