    Interesting point - what "explanation" would be a good one for a lender?  They all seem fraught with things that would make an underwriter sweaty.  For example
    Illness - will the applicant get ill again and not pay?
    Bad relationship - reflects badly on the judgment of the applicant  (no offence meant - just looking at this dispassionately)
    Spent more than earned - reflects badly on the responsibility of the applicant.

    I think anyone realizes people can have a situation outside their control.  A bad relationship doesn't show poor judgment unless we are victim blaming?
