I have something to vent about...
I got a phone call from a close friend the other day.
Before my bankruptcy proceedings, I had confided in someone that I thought was a good friend about my financial difficulties and hardships. I also told her that I was going to have to surrender my car, and a list of other things. Prior to this, she and her husband had wanted to buy my car from me, but I owed much more than the car was even worth. I told them this as well.
After filing, I did end up surrendering my car, and the bank gave me all kinds of hell for it, and I couldn't figure out why. They wanted the car, and they wanted it ASAP, calling me three-four times every few hours. It was really strange, considering they were openly breaking the law by even contacting me.
Well, come to find out, my friend's husband, went behind my back, and was offering to come and get the car in the middle of the night, go to my work place, and everything, and get the car, and pay the bank $2500.00 for it. He was really pushing this guy, because he wanted to get this car, and get a discount on it. His wife at one point had even asked me if I would mind if they bought the car from the bank once they took it back! I specifically told her that it would really hurt me if they did that to me, and she said they would leave it alone. I also had told her all the things that needed to be fixed on the car, and everything else.
So anyway, this friend of mine is a real estate agent, and hadn't had my number in a while. She had overheard this guy at the bank telling the owner all of this, some months back. She also recently did a real estate transaction with this guy, and he screwed her over every which way but loose, and she is now in court suing them for false documentation, and a host of other problems.
So she called me up, and told me about all of this, and what's going on. I have remained friends with these people this whole time, and now I don't want anything to do with them. I am really really really hurt and offended by all of this.
So anyway, that's my vent for this day.
