jtval 0 #1 September 18, 2006 Have you ever feigned Illness or injury for sympathy? If so please explain. I know of people who act out some serious stuff but I have only goofed around with my G/F like when she accidently poked me in the eye or something and I want to goof around about how she is always hurting me. and once ther was a time when I had a sore throat and I told her in the pathetic sick voice "i'm so sick, I sure could use some tea and honey" but nothing serious. what is your personal limit on faking such illness What's the worst (most drastic) thing you've faked?My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #7 September 18, 2006 that's kinda what got me thinking. I read that thread and started thinking of one speficic guy in my old nieghborhood who tried every trick in the book to gain sympathy. and your example does count. I think it was the option one. Although your boss is not your SO ( i guess) its not meant for anything that will cause pain and hurtMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #11 September 19, 2006 well the part she worte about does. as I said in my original post. I play that up sometimes but its usually when shes getting up and going to the kitchen. I don't generally like to feel helpless so even when I am sick and or broken I do all I can before resorting to being helped.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope there are more thoughtful, caring guys out there..somewhere. But in the meantime, I'm just fine making my way for myself. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #15 September 19, 2006 I have Raynaud's Syndrome, which causes me to lose circulation in the fingers, toes and heels when I am exposed to the right kind of cold. My body temperature also runs normally a couple of degrees below normal in the 96 range. One time while doing stuff for Uncle Sam, the SGM noticed my fingertips and retrieved a medic. I tried explaining nothing was wrong, but my temperature of 96.4 and my bloodless, numb and cold fingers made everything appear as though I was in bad shape. I thought, "Fuck it. I'm tired. I'm cold. Feeling my toes and fingers would be nice. Some rest would be nice." I took about a two hour rest in a warm tent. I got coffee and everything. Man, it was great! My wife is hotter than your wife.

Yes, there are more thoughtful, caring guys out here... you just have to look beyond where you normally would, they're typically the ones who never make it past friends.... As for feigning illness, yes when it was a beautiful day and I just didn't feel like going to work but I think that's not quite what the OP meant. What really gets me are people who feign serious, even terminal, illnesses... even to the point of faking signs of being treated for said illnesses... especially when they defraud the governement and their friends....

yamtx73 0 #19 September 19, 2006 Personally, yes... my ex-wife's first husband faked a broken back so he wouldn't be forced to pay child support... I'm aware of others who do so as well, but I haven't actually met them....The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apollard24 0 #20 September 19, 2006 So basically our tax dollars paid for his fake illness if you get down to it. He didnt pay childsupport so the mother probably got aid from the gov. Why do people do such things. People that do that stuff should get turned into the authorities...Breathe out so I can breathe you in... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yamtx73 0 #21 September 19, 2006 They should be turned in... forced to pay back whatever monies they stole from us... then sent to a mental hospital for treatment, at their own expense of course...The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

The first guy in my life that I've ever experienced that with. No matter how much he and I may be at odds with each other, if I get a migraine (or any other thing) he is awesome at handling things, taking care of our daughter, and checking on me. As for faking being sick, I have a boss who has something wrong with her every day. It just gets so old, that I wind up not even mentioning if I'm genuinely feeling poorly, because she has a "migraine" or her stomach is upset, or she's running a fever....the list goes on and on.

Nightingale 0 #23 September 19, 2006 LOL. I don't understand the feigning illness thing. I don't like being the center of attention, and I don't usually like being fussed over. I'm more likely to pretend I'm fine when I'm really sick. If I'm just a little sick (head cold, paper cut, etc...), I'll whine about it a bit, but when I'm really sick or injured (broken bone, sprained ankle, flu) but have stuff I want/need to do, I'm good at pretending I feel fine, unless it's to the point where I physically just can't manage (four days of food poisoning followed immediately by a really nasty flu leaving me too dizzy to get out of bed...I did actually call my parents for help during that one). Feigning illness for sympathy is stupid, but I do admit that walking on a broken bone for days before admitting that the foot was more than "a little bruised" and going for an x-ray is equally dumb.
