Well, as it turns out, why would they care, they just took the $800 out of my account. Turned out to be a snowball effect. Then I didn't have enough money for all the bills I had just paid.
i was wondering how were they able to take money off your account? was his a spin off from yours or something? i almost panicked, i would have a dieing fit if they thought they were gonna take money out of my account to cover his debts. my account is at a different bank and i am on a fixed income, so they can't do that, can they?
laketime,
i think you did good, you didn't feed into his drama, did i hear a little guilt throwing? hopefully he'll realize that he has some choices to make and that he is not gonna be able to get around it by talking or writing his way out of it
