English term or phrase: Nobody gets over me.
The place is California. It´s a dialogue between a porstitute and a friend.
The prostitute says to a friend that she can go anywhere and get a place to live, because she´s a prostitute. And then, she says "And nobody gets over me. Nobody."

Quer dizer que ninguém esquece dela, que ninguém passa por cima dela ou que ninguém é dona dela. Isso é alguma gíria?

Thank god they are required to have that caveat where an increase in price/change in procedure allows you to cancel the contract without early termination fees. Verizon "gets over on me" every month when they receive my $200 check, I say more power to anybody that can get away without paying an overpriced ETF.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Fiona Stephenson: This is the only answer which matches the phrase given, yet the context seems odd. Perhaps it`s meant to be "Nobody gets one over on me", in which case the other options given here would fit, yet even then, the context is still strange.

agree  Paula Góes: Fiona, I belive it is fine in the context - Perhaps she said it would be easy to build up a customer base again even if she moves out to another area because people can't get her out of their mind?

nobody gets over me.
e ninguém passa por cima de mim


Explanation:
É realmente muito dúbio, mas, só para tornar tudo ainda mais confuso, a mim parece-me que quer dizer «e ninguém passa por cima de mim» : )

Talvez com um pouco mais de contexto se consiga ver melhor o sentido.

Explanation:
Bem parecida com a resposta de Ivana de Sousa Santos, mas um pouco mais com tom de gíria, que cabe bem se é um bate papo entre amigos.
