Likely a great majority of you are living in areas, where you not have the type of society (of those who know what bike you have) "I WANT YOUR BIKE WHEN YOU DIE." (use their feelings against you; some do it further than these quotes) Some ask: "Who Gets Your Bike, When Something Happens To You?~"
I bring this off-topic --- as it relates to some of the bikers that have chatted in the same bike shop, to the same owner. Generally, each local cycling society has its own mindset.

Correction: >about< "use" rather than 'above' use. "I had that thought about the use in not been seen to do such." #18

Sorry, but this is completely incoherent and you're sounding increasingly paranoid. Either there is a language problem or you really need help beyond that which you can find on an internet forum. I'm not kidding about this--you seem to be in some sort of dangerous spiral. Please get help.

Anyone here --- have/had any friends (what be good contacts; or the better one -- what [then] define as a 'real friend') --- who in the past gave a thoughful donation of a bike to YOU. As further time & years went on ----- that 1 contact later comes back to you, asking back in a single sentence for that bike given to you. "I want my bike back." (said in solid, consistent tone --- but in neutral manner). As that contact knew that you valued that bike so much --- that you NEVER were going to sell it.; never had fear of you doing anything to it. Only preserving it. ?Ever had such a person you have known come to your?

My sister texted me yesterday. Seems she is currently unable to meet certain "financial commitments" and asked if she could borrow some money from me. Strongly believing that would be money I would never get back I ignored her message and blocked her number. Wonder how long it will be before she emails me at work.

She has always been irresponsible with money. We don't speak unless she needs something. About a month ago she asked me if I could recommend an employment lawyer. Seems her employer was going to cut her hours in return for letting her keep her job. I asked around and got a name for her. I remember her telling me that she moved within the last several years. My guess is that she used the $130K or so she got from my mom's estate after she died in 2013, bought too much house and doesn't have an emergency fund. She's never had a driver's license and takes the train into the city for work, so a car payment can't be the issue. With so many jobs being in the 'burbs and not accessible by public transit, that is surely a handicap. Never finishing college also is.

That's easier to do with food & staple products. But items like bike products get discontinued via technology. And some of such gains value from that; some only gains memory, some gains both.

What's the statute of limitations on this one? Three years? Five? If someone is "loaned" an object without a set time of return, at what point does it become the property of the person to whom it was lent?
So I guess that would be my answer: if it was established from the outset that the bike was on loan, and some shorter period of time has passed, give the bike back. If the bike was given, OP, that's your bike now.

I made error, as later I got into a disagreement with same person, in another bike I chose to have him sell a bike for me. (in which I forgot about the earlier time that he had wanted the other bike back; had I not forgotten that -- I would not had chosen him to sell an un-related bike for me.)

That was an error: as the person gave DID GIVE the 1 bike to Me.

So has that person gotten a restraining order against you yet? Serious question--you're clearly obsessed beyond reason.

Wouldn't you be wanting to have forgotten a person of such a status already? Later finding out that you had to recollect on such a person? You are indirectly saying such luck never happens to you.

You really should seek help. Try to avoid acting on impulse and take seriously any legal proceedings such as a restraining order. Your situation may be unfortunate but it could get a lot worse if you act inappropriately on your grievances.

No, I'm simply asking if you had an accident at some point in your life where you hit your head. If so, then I understand what you're going through.

OK, I'm going to take that as a "yes" and offer you some help ...
Check out these sites:
https://www.biausa.org/
https://www.cdc.gov/traumaticbraininjury/index.html
https://www.brainline.org/
https://msktc.org/tbi
I hope you can find someone to help you through your difficulties, and to speak for you when you have grievances with other people. It's not good to go through something like this alone.
