A Friendship That Doesn't
Stay Afloat
I do not typically enjoy the hassle of buying insurance, but the other
day I found an amazing deal and wonderful new friend. It was from a
short term insurance company (try
this one in the UK) and the man on the other line was one of the
most interesting human being I have ever talked to. We ending having
such a good time we decided to get our families together for dinner one
night. We set up a time to meet at a home cooked buffet near both of our
houses. I told my wife I met a new friend while buying some short term
car insurance and she thought I was crazy. It took a little of
convincing, but I finally her got in the car after promising this was
going to turn in to a long and fruitful friendship. It turned out I was
a liar.
This man, who seemed so sociable and intelligent on the phone, was the
most selfish, loud, and obnoxious human being I have ever met. His wife
was equally annoying and spent the entire dinner using her fork to pick
food out of her teeth. Her topics of conversation were completely
nonsensical and all involved situations which ended in, “You should have
been there.” I tried to change the subject back to my short term
insurance in hopes of possible getting a better a deal out of the night,
but it was a no go. In fact he informed me of a few of the issues hidden
in the fine print of the agreement I signed and realize I made not be
the one of out of my wife and me to be making financial decisions. My
wife strongly agrees on this point and likes to bring it up quite
frequently. Why not visit

By the end of the night my wife and I were so bored and insulted by the
off the cuff remarks of this couple that we both went to the restroom
and slipped out the back. We felt bad sticking them with the bill, but
we also felt completely justified in doing so. The next day I canceled
my policy with him and found a new company for my short term insurance
needs. The guy I spoke with seemed really nice and we are supposed to
play golf later this week. I think this short term insurance will surely
blossom into a long term friendship.
