Help my friend has been Sankified!

[Talldrink]

A Sanki is a player and will play anyone out for money at his or her convenience. Anybody that lives in DR and thinks that these people are 'friends' deep down inside is in denial.

[Johana]

There is a saying... Dime con quien andas y te dire quien eres.
Tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are.

there are many people in many different countries who will only make "friends" with people who are of use to them in one way or another ie a foot up the job ladder , getting in the right social circles etc - this is nothing exclusive to this country

Lapurr - Yes I live in the DR now, weird huh lol

he/she that is without sin cast the first stone. a sankie does what he does for survival. the funny part is that most have perfected the trade....

[Lapurr]

I don't think it's survival...but then again what do I know!!

That's great you are living there!! where did you move too? and how long ago?? I could use a change of climate pretty quick here!!

lol I almost said climax!!

[Kyle]

climax ?? LMAO

"Let him without sin cast the first stone."

"Toward whom shall I cast it?"

Obviously none of us is completely without sin, but I think it is fair to say that does not relieve us of the responsibility of protecting those who are in harm's way.

The thing with sankies is that while they may be acting simply to survive, they are doing so at the expense of others. Thieves and robbers may offer the same logic that they only trying to survive, but I don't believe anyone would concede that robbery is acceptable, regardless of the rationale.

Anyone who thinks a "sankie" does this to survive is deep in denial or just doesn't understand at all!!!!

Sankies go after the vulnerable, the lonely, whatever criteria makes a good target for them. Often they already have decent jobs by local standards. They are looking for the EASY AND FAST WAY OUT!!!!!

What they are doing is unacceptable regardless of their motives!

And it is guilt by association here. If you hang with them you are like them!!!!

I'm with you %100...when I think survival, I think pretty deep...my desk top is not a beautiful beach scene or the car of my dreams, it's a small child in Africa,with an empty bowl in his hand...Every day I see it and it reminds me of how good I have it!

A sanky is a pathetic parasite that attacks without warning...infests your whole being.I have come to the point where I am sickened by their flawless tactics...ugh!! makes me sick to think they have every move planned out just waiting for their prey.

whew ...alrighty then...I got that off my chest!!
