should i wait to tell my parents(1 golfing in oregon, the other spending family time in pitt.) bad news until after they get back or just man up and tell them tomorrow, effectively ruining their vacations and also my sense of self worth?

yay, nay?

(p.s. my pops just called me and told me to “turn over” his baby since he hasnt driven her in two weeks)

Oh man, I was gonna say let them enjoy their time away… until you posted this part above. ☹

Worst part is that the dealer isnt even going to look at it until Tuesday… so you have at least two full days to :ohnoes:

I’m sorry for what happened, I felt terrible. Honestly, tell him the truth asap. Tell him how it happened and that you are going to take care of it, and not for him to worry. You made an honest mistake, and owning up to it and fixing the problem is the best and most mature thing you can do. You know damn well he will respect you for doing that, and won’t be as upset with you.

Best of luck man:tup:

You post it up on a public forum and expect to keep it discrete?

Good luck with all that.

Is there? Or does it just make you sound better to call it “bad news”?

bad news is a term you use when the actual “bad news” does not directly need be discussed. but im glad u took the initiative to just jump right and spell out what happened. good work

The best part is that someone with about a 3rd grade reading comprehension could have figured out between 2 threads in 10 min what exactly happened.

I wasnt there…I didnt hear about it aside from on these threads.

Pretty funny you are trying to cover your ass on an internet forum if you planned on being so honest…
