Embarrassed ? Not at all...smartest financial move I ever made. Who cares what my former neighbors think ? Holding on to upside down properties that they will NEVER recover from in a declining area, who is smarter ? I don't hold my self responsible for the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. I did what I HAD TO DO to survive, I could give a damn what other people think.

I was/am very open with my close neighbors and they said - We don't want you to leave!" I just chuckle and said, HMMM - you want me to stay enough to pay my mortgage, because I can't do it anymore.
Except for one new family that moved into a Section 8 house on our street, my neighbors have been great. With that one you have to watch your mailbox and bolt everything down in the yard.
I don't feel like an "only" because it is happening to a lot of folks, not just me. A person has to do what they have to do to survive and if your nosy ex-neighbors don't understand that, it is not your problem, it is their's. Hold your head up high - you have done nothing wrong.
Oh, and no, my neighbors didn't want to go so far as to pay my mortgage. LOL.

NO one should feel bad about a foreclosure. We have tried in every way to save our home, but because we are over 125% underwater, the home is not worth , the headache, the blood, our less and less working years and our health. Honestly, since I live in foreclosure city (Vegas) six of my neighbors are foreclosing and we are supporting one another with timelines, notices, what to expect, and Arizona Professor Brent White's( WSJ online has oodles of his info) writings on the reason a person should walk away...sometimes joyously from an underwater home...
good luck everyone...

Not embarrassed at all about whats happening with my house or neighborhood. Frankly, I could care less what anyone thinks. Neighbors are going to talk crap about you no matter what your dong so who cares! Important part is ...how do you feel about yourself.....nothing else matters.Filed 7 - 7/8/10, 341 - 8/17/10 - Continued, Presumption of Abuse Filed - 8/27/10

My foreclosure hasn't started yet but I expect something anyday (no payments made since May 2010). Anyway, I go back and forth about the embarrasment thing and it seems the pendelum is swinging more towards the thought process that my pending foreclosure is now a financial decision that is best for my future. When I think about the MANY things that led to this happening and all the many things I did for about 4 years to keep the house (i.e. selling cars, tractors, furniture, working 3 jobs, etc) and it still not being enough especially after my husband lost his job, I can look in the mirror and know that I tried my best to do what I could but with the economy and some health factors also thrown in, it wasn't gonna happen. With that said, and with this thinking process, I am getting a better perspective every day. I really believe most people will understand way more than we give them credit for; for those who don't, I think I don't need them in my life anyway.CH13 filed 5/21/09; 341 6/17/09; confirmed 7/14/09]
