Hi BND.. Please don't be too hard on yourself. Yes, it was tough to deal with the truck breaking down in the middle of the road. And your H was very sweet to wonder why you didn't call. He wanted to be able to help you and protect you, even from 3000 miles away!
Like PL, etc, have said, it's ok to let someone help and it's good for our souls to let them help. It makes us appreciate others and relaize there are really people who care out there.
7 years ago, I was feeling very upset (over my breakup with an ex-boyfriend) while driving home on a wet night. The road surface was glistening from being wet, which made me misjudge where the railroad track was so I turned too soon - onto the railroad track. Had to call 911 to stop the train, and some kind stranger towed my car off the tracks. The tires were busted from the incident. I was so thankful for that kind man's help. There really are Good Samaritans around.
It's ok to have a pity party now and then, it's understandable. Hope you're doing better today. Hugs, PH
