I just got notification today that an ex-friend has filed for chapter 7. I believe this means she doesn't want to pay anyone back and is looking to get out from under all her debt. Please tell me if I am wrong.
She owes me 7K and it was just a loan between friends, no paperwork and I have nothing to use to file a proof of claim. Other than the fact she must have listed me as a creditor because I got the letter. I never pressured her about the money or tried to collect. I knew she was getting her life back together.
Well, I guess she has gotten her life back together because she is now working at Microsoft and is marrying a wealthy man in 3 weeks. I'm sure her filing the BK before the wedding was one of the conditions. If I were him, I would have done the same thing.
Is there anything I can do? She is now financially better off than I am. Can I at least write this off my taxes because the government is allowing her to skip on her obligations? Yes, I know I should spend my last $100 and have stupid tattooed on my forehead. This has and will really hurt me. I was counting on getting my money back. Just goes to show you it isn't always some huge nameless corporation that loses money. People get hurt too.
I know this isn't usually the type of question posted here. Thanks for your help.
