    NLID, you dont always lose the house anymore. I had a friend of a friend who was was able to keep theirs. really not sure how it all works to be fair

    I figure I have lost pretty much everything and once the car is gone it is another debt that I will have to pay some part back in. It was bought before my marriage fell apart and the ex has refused to pay anything towards anything. Including an overdraft on a joint account and now the bank has closed my own single account that I had on my own because of the OD on the joint account and yet again he gets away with nothing! I have been paying on the od since the split. Yet again I have had to pay the price. So if i do go down that path I am going to wait til after the divorce is final. Imean I really dont have anything left to lose and it would be nice to breath and really start over again!

    Oh gosh sorry for the rant. I have been doing a lot of thinking about the divorce the ex and life in general the past few days!

    all I can say is that I would not be moving into this little flat if all my friends here had not kept me sane and kicked me up the backside at times when I really wanted to give up! I am so grateful and have so much paying back to do in every sense of that word!

    Party still at mine saturday.........hehehe just bring a paintbrush!
