Have you ever lost your wallet? How did you feel?
Was on my way to work today, and decided to stop by the store and get something to eat. I got about 3 blocks away form the store to realize my wallet was missing. It fell out as I was walking to work. I rushed back and retraced my steps, but never found it. If who ever found it waited 3-4 minutes, they would have seen me.
I had about $40, debit card, permit id, healthcare card, $100 gift card, and weekly unlimited metro card I bought today. My permit may have my address on it, which worries me a bit. Don't want people knowing where I live. I lost it in Brooklyn but live in the Bronx. It could work in my favor and the person who found it can mail it to me. Losing my wallet hurt my soul today. I am 30 and at a very rough point in my life. Struggling with anxiety and depression. Currently trying to save money and move out my parents house and start life over.
I don't know why people decide to take peoples wallets when they find it. How hard is it to hold on to it and try to find the owner. After you take the money, and maybe keep the wallet, not sure what else you can do with it. I have found about 4 iphones over the past 3-4 yrs and I've giving them all back to the owner. I could have easily sold them for money. I know times are rough, especially in NYC where it's expensive. However you never know what that person is going through. For all they know they could've been my last $40. I know with time I will get over this, but It truly hurts.
