    I tried to let this one go, but.......

    I've been sitting at work most of the day thinking back to this past Saturday when I had a brief encounter with my ex. He's not high up on my favorite people list so I just muttered a hello and planned to continue on my path. He took it upon himself to (in a very condesending tone) ask me how my bankruptcy was going with a little smirk. He knows fool well how it's going because he was listed as a creditor and I know for a fact he received a copy of the discharge papers. He was just attempting to be an *$%(@.

    I am a good person and try not to do unto others because they did unto me, but there are still tons of debt that I discharged in my bk that he would still be liable for if the creditor knew where he was. He lives like a gypsy and doesn't have problems moving around to stay under the radar, but I know where he works and his mom's address is always the same. I've been grappling with the decision to pass that information on to a few of those creditors annomyously so that he can truly feel some of what I've been going through.

    Keep in mind that after we split, his solution to dealing with the financial problems we were having with the business was to stop answering his telephone and telling a few creditors that he moved to Mexico. HA!! I didn't find all of this out until the creditors started calling me all hours of the day and night because he was "unreachable".

    I have a bit of hate in my heart right now and can't really be objective and would LOVE some advice on this one. I just can't believe the gaul of this guy. I guess he feels he's skirted the issue and is living his new life footloose and fancy free. I personally know of a few creditors that would love to have a conversation with him about approx. $100k in bad debt.

    What would you do? This is one instance where prayer isn't helping and I'm on the verge of writing a letter with his contact info to creditors, just to give him a taste of his own medicine.

      Ms. 'Belle: I'm not a vindicitive person either, but if I were in your shoes, I would have my word processor all fired up with MailMerge and GO FOR IT!!!

        I feel the same way. I was willing to let bigons be bigons, but he seems to get some weird satisfaction from knowing I've hit rock bottom and I guess he feels unaffected by all of this stuff. I was perfectly content just moving on with my life and would have been pleasant if I encountered him and he goes and does this. It's taken me 2 days to post about it because I was honestly going to let it go, but its eating away at me.

        I think he caught me on the wrong day because I'm just getting started dealing with the IRS and I'm not a happy person right now. Why are some people so stupid?

          Actually, if his name is on the debts too, they will probably start going after him more aggressively now that you have BK'd.

          Maybe you should let a little info slip though

            No, he isn't stupid, he is a Sociopath. Here is a link to the articles we sent to Sharlie yesterday. See how many traits you recognize?

              You have by no means hit bottom except financially and there is no doubt in my mind you will be financially stable some day.

              You have worked through your problems in the most phenomenal way and he will always be at the bottom looking up.

              I wouldn't do a thing but live life well. Karma.

                  Hi SB,

                  This is just my opinion.

                  He will get "his" because I believe in Karma. He did not "skate by", don't think for one second this isn't going to come back and bite him in the BUTT!!!! He has to move around, hide, change jobs, tell creditors that he *moved* to Mexico, etc. Really, what kinda life is that? You on the other hand, have dealt with your problems head on and preveiled, I think we all KNOW who the winner is...

                  Don't stoop (?sp) to his level....remain the classy southern belle you are!

                  Hang in there.

                      Southernbelle,

                      Write the letter, if you so desire. It may help you get at some long repressed feelings that need to get out ...

                      But ... and this is what I try to do ... I would wait another two weeks before sending it out. If in two weeks, you feel that you need to send it, then do so ... Otherwise, you may calm down and find that in a day or two, you are NOT even thinking of this guy in the least! ...

                      Sending the letter might prolong the anger ... You'll have a better sense of this in two weeks.

                        Your liability for your listed debts ends with the bankruptcy discharge. This is beyond the reach of your ex. You should try killing him with kindness. It would be exactly the kind of reaction he would never expect and he will soon disappear. But it will only work if you can see the rightness of it. Be kind to yourself first!

                          ITA with the others about being nice and all that..

                          It IS what he would least expect. He should see that YOU are a happy, resolved person that has handled yourself maturely and responsibly, unlike himself. It's probably the best medicine for him. Also, I think you should write the letters.

                            Now really is that necessary? I mean come on, calling a bunch of women "hens" do you really think that is necessary. No man hating here, if you know a women who did this to a man post her story. Otherwise we are all here trying to help this posters with her problem. She is angry with her ex, and rightly so. Do you blame her if you step out of your big manly self? I mean this guy sounds like a creep. We would stand behind a man who went threw this because of a women, that's the big difference between men like you and women like us, we don't just pick to stand behind a certain gender, we stand behind the gender that is right. Did we not vote for Obama, not just the female gender?

                            Ok enough on that. My feelings on this issue are in agreement with a few other post. Write the letters, sit them back for awhile, if in a week or 2 you still feel you want to send them, then do it. You're onto the right track with your life, his sounds like a mess. And it will continue to be a mess until he does the right thing. Your best revenge is to live well, be happy, let him see you happy. Hold your head high and when he asks again how are you, you tell him you're great now and very happy, then walk away, this will be your very best revenge!

                              Totally agree. You may have hit rock bottom financially (not as a person!!), Belle, but you are on your way up! Take care of you... and I guarantee things will even out. Karma baby!
