Info on bankruptcy, pls

[Alysser]

I don't know anything about settlements or bankruptcy, I am sorry for that.

But I wanted to let you know, if you or Gayle ever need anyone to talk I am a PM away. I know I barely know you, but I want to let you know I will always be here to support you guys. I am sure 100% of PT will be, as well

I wish you much happiness in the months to come.

Call the Florida Bar association, they should be able to answer your questions, maybe for free, or refer you to someone who can.

Sorry Rose, can't help from here. Thanks for the chat on Friday. It was an hour well spent. You're absolutely correct about the "backing off". My entire support system seems to have vanished.

I hope his bankruptcy doesn't affect you. Maybe it won't now that your divorce is final.

My feelings exactly. I would love to hear from either or both of you.

Well, I just spent 2 hours doing a very long email to my lawyer regarding all the crap that's been going on recently. I've been quite adamant that I will not pay ransom for my things that he has deemed are mine. I don't know what condition my stuff is in or what even might be there. I think I covered all the issues so now, when she's back tomorrow, she's going to have alot to do.

My 2 friends that have been pretty good up to recently have disappeared. I've emailed, texted, phoned and left messages all to no avail. I am so glad that I phoned and talked with Rose on Friday. My only human contact this weekend. It was so good to talk to you my dear.

Rose, I hope tomorrow you can get some info on this bankruptcy situation. I would suspect though, since your papers are final, that it will not affect you.

Thanks all for thinking of me. Feeling pretty alone and sorry for myself. Good to come here for a wee pick me up.

Momcat- the bankruptcy doesn't effect me at all, as far as I know. I am just wondering which type my Ex is going for. To me, he does not deserve any relief, charging up all sorts of luxury items (lying to me about their prices) and gambling debt.
Why do I have to pay for everything I want and others get a 'charge off'? He gets a 'write off' for the little red dress he bought her for XMas? And all his new clothing? That's obscene.

Catty- you are right. We had a foster mama here in FL, who sadly died. That woman and her husband were friends with another foster mama. (I didn't really know the husband) She said the man lost contact with his friends, and she admitted that she didn't even know what to say to him after a while. He tried to date, but self-sabotaged himself with pictures of his deceased wife all over. He eventually moved away. I wish him the best, for a new start at life.
It must be very hard.

Catty- I don't understand exactly what you mean by: maybe my friends DID say they wouldn't be available...

I don't know WHAT I did to lose any friendships. It's more about the lack of contact at all, from many people. Nobody has said they are not interested in my friendship, but I feel like I'm a bit of a 'non-person' now.
I sense that many people are on the edge now, even those who have been very understanding about everything. They are just at the point where it's too much for them, and I understand that. I will try to maintain the relationships with everybody possible without going on about my 'traumas' and emphasis my progress instead. (except, that's not how I really feel inside) That's where actual family would come in handy. They listen to you forever, if that's what you need.
I am going to be a better person coming out of all of this. When I hear or see someone in 'chaos' I will let them know that I am there for them.
Whenever they need me.

Thanks to all of you on PT who are holding up Gayle and myself. We do appreciate it, very much.

Hang in there Rose....you'll both be fine mate.
And as the old saying goes..."As you walk forward thru life, don't look back, cos you ain't goin that way."

[Vermontcat]

Rose, I don't have any advice about bankruptcy but I did just want to let you know that your Pet Talk family is here for you even if some of your other "friends" aren't.
Sending hugs your way for you and your kitties.

I went through bankruptcy, & I got to keep my car.. there is "limit" on how much your car is worth in the "Black Book" & if you still owe on the car, then it's also up to the company that you have the loan with.. My car was in the Clear for the Black Book, & the company I had the loan with said they will give me some time to get caught up & if I keep on track , then there is no reason to take my car away. 2yrs later I now OWN my car.

Please don't think that every that goes into bankruptcy used it as a free ticket. My ex (long term b/f) left me with an insane amount of debt. I tried to keep it under control, but I just couldn't afford it & food at the same time... Then the bills grew out of control & I was getting behind... Before my credit took a dive through doo doo creak, I tried to get help.. they refused me, so I was stuck with bankruptcy... best thing I did.. loads of stress releaved & I was off to a fresh start on my own.

Not sure how things work in the USA though... I only know Ontario, Canada's laws, & only some of them...
