coolheadal Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 About 2 days ago I was at Walmart and I met this Brazilian women in all places at Walmart in the Automobile department. She had came up to me asking her how to find a car battery for 2002 Honda Accord. At the time I didn't think much of it. She looked clueless like she didn't know how to find which better she needed. I had asked her how come your husband not her to help you? She said she had no husband and wasn't married in fact shes said she never had been married and had never had kids. Okay so I had moved on so you have no husband and no boy friend. She said no none. Also I had asked her don't you have family here? She said no they weren't here only in Brazil! Some how I had found myself helping her with her broken English and the Walmart associate that was in the hunting department. He was telling her to drive 20 minutes to a Walmart Super Center. But she couldn't understand him but she could understand me. At first I had thought she could under stand Spanish but she could she said. She could understand my English. To me the whole time was odd around her. She use my shopping cart and had placed the battery for her car into my shopping cart. I was at Walmart to pick up a HDTV I had ordered. Which I never did, because somehow I got it into my head this women needed my help! Plus she gave me her phone number too (cell phone) with her full name. Before I knew it I was at her car opening up her hood and to look at the battery. She told me she already had to jump start it and had the cables in the car and a wrench. That's odd.. I told her you have a SEARS die- hard gold battery and should get one for free since yours was installed 3/10. She was happy. She did asked me could you drive me to SEARS because she didn't know how to get there from here. She would pay me. I had told her no you didn't have to do that! I don't know why I did it, but I got into her 2002 Honda Accord which by-the-way looked new and it was cleaned in and out. She said only had the car for 1 year she paid for it in full so she didn't have to owe on it. She said something like $7,000 cash. I said okay.. She likes to tell me all about herself how she has a green card good for 2020. She in school for her career and also to learn English better. I didn't know what was going on, I was taken by surprise with her and in the effect, I drove us in circles, not on purpose but I just lost my bearings. Soon we had arrived at SEARS. Doing that driving time I have learned she has saved $20,000 from Cleaning homes and taking care of elderly women. Even shown me a card where she is now. She also told me she needs $60,000 to buy her own condo. She wants her own stove, microwave, dishwasher, washer/dryer. Takes these items one at a time. She didn't like to rush it. Okay this is what she told me while we were waiting for her car to be check out. Which had taken 30 mins. She seems nice, she wasn't a drinker or smoker and she goes out with friends that she met down here where she had help out then they because friends. She told me I was her new friend too. Wow! This is moving too fast for me I don't even know her. Just met her that day over a car battery. She was dress in hospital orderly uniform she said she was a nurse. I had said are you RN, she said no. She must have been a NA Nurses Aid which make more sense. She has a very thick accent at times it was hard to understand, but the type of work I do is for corporations and I work around all different accents so I can get the Jess of what she is trying to say. Her cell phone did go off and she told me to Shh! She told the person on the phone she was getting the battery at SEAR though she was going to be gone 1 hour but it has taken longer. This was the elderly person she was taking care of. When her car was ready the guys at SEARS thought I was her BF, well that might have seem that way but I was there to just help her out. The bill was $139 and I had asked her if she had the money for this work? She said yes? We already know she has $20,000 in the bank using her debit visa card. I wasn't going to pay for anything I don't even know her that well plus she has money. I was telling her that you have 3 years on the battery and if it fails in the 1, 2, 3r year they will give you a new one. After they they will pro rate it. She seems to understand that. Anyway she wanted my phone and address. I had gave it to her actually wrote on the bill receipt from SEARS. I also mentioned that my Birthday was in a few days. She wanted to repay me, So I had asked her could you cook? She said she can cook anything? Can you bake a cake she said yes? She said she would do something on my Birthday. She kept on asking me when I was born at time of the day. Which is pretty interesting as I do follow that myself. Just have see if she does show up but I am not depending on that though. As you well soon learn out why.. I was near my home I decided to show here where I live. I told her I own my home. When I got near my home there was a package outside. I had to bring it into the house. She wanted to come in. My house doesn't anything inside of it just boxes. I had told her I was moving back into it. She wanted to know if I would be here for good. Seems to be asking that a lot. I told her yes. I have dog in the house he was barking at her and jump on her she was so scared. But he's friendly I told her. Anyway we were off and back on the road. She then told me she also lived nearby me. Wow! She's only 5 minutes from. She told me to drive to her place. But funny we never made it there just drove by it. She said another time. Before this she told me this tale that if I knew that Brazilian girls at 14 of age get married to older men. And that what she did. She was married for 30 plus years and she was traumatized over it! So she didn't want to get married again nor have any type of relationship with any man in other words no boy friend. All she wanted to do is work and send money to her sick mom back in Brazil. She also said she had two sons in their 20's. But neither are here in the US, but will be coming out next year. Now didn't she tell me she was never married why tell me this now? From this point it felt odd, when I got back to Walmart she wanted to see what type of vehicle I was driving. I told her what I was driving. I don't play around. But I told her I was driving to the front of the store as I was there to pick-up the HDTV. So I drove up to the front. Got out and gave her back her keys. She wanted to do a high-five but I just said just shake on it friend. I didn't even looked back just worked into the store and left her in her car driver seat. Never heard from her again.. I don't think I will? And after reading the above from everyone I don't think I would bother with her. She wasn't too honest with her past until later at the end. Being traumatized is a red flag what else is she not telling me? Thanks for listening to my story this just happen 2 days ago... Link to post Share on other sites
