    Default Quick translation needed

    I want to write a "thank you" note to someone who used to help me on my route but now switched to something else, hence "betrayal"....

    "Thank you for you help on route 58, even though you've betrayed me "

    No fancy language, just common, street speech please.
    Receipient is from Puerto Rico.

    TIA

    Hi!
    I´m not quite sure I understand what you mean...
    in which situation would you say something like that...I mean, it´s none of my business, it´s just to understand the sentence and help you with the translation...
    literally, in Spanish would say:
    "Thank you for you help on route 58, even though you've betrayed me "
    "Gracias por tu ayuda en la carretera 58, a pesar de que me hayas traicionado "

    Folks? what do you think?

    I think it's a thanking note with a bit of irony, sarcasm.
    So I think your translation is correct, I'd say the same

    It's a bit strange, but maybe is intentionally done to create a feeling of... regret, maybe?
