  18. my ex was arrested for Grand Larceny after she ran off with some built models cars and a lowrider bicycle when we broke up, i never got the cars back, her brother paid me what i thought they were worth and now that i look back at it i feel like i ripped him off. her new BF had my bike which i got back in a good ol fashioned bike jacking. i saw her last year she apologized about thw whole incident and i was surprised she was much more mature at 26 than when we were 17.
