My ex boyfriend borrowed my car for a ridiculously long period of time earlier this year. "One to two weeks" turned into like a month. My ex-roommate in Seattle messaged me and said a parking ticket came for me in the mail there. It was obviously a ticket he incurred. I asked her to send it and she forgot. She emailed me images of the front and back of the ticket and I forwarded them to my ex. He said "Oh I don't have checks yet. What's your license plate number? Maybe I can pay it online."
to which I replied "Oh, my license plate is _____. It's also printed on the ticket along with all my other information. Also, you can pay it online at http://seattle.gov/courts and the URL is also stated on the ticket. Or you can pay by phone at 206-384-5600 (this number is also stated on the ticket).
He never responded after this. I had a dream this morning that he was avoiding talking to me about the ticket. Then I woke up and realized I was just dreaming about real life ): The ticket was already late (It had gone up from $38 to $63) and was due tomorrow so I paid it myself today with a credit card. And I now have $3 of available credit left.

I have no words...speechless! Why do we always get taken for a ride?? x
The phrase never seems to be enough but what else can express the feeling?
*Sigh!*(throwing hands up in the air)MEN!!
erghghgh. thanks for validating my feelings jen and meme! haha
also, recently discovered fmylife.com is actually a website. it's good.
I seriously will punch him for you, if I know him at all I mean.
That's why he's an ex?:)
thats so fucked up. i hate assholes like that. I am currently dealing with the same shit! uhhhhh. why can't people just be responsible!? and it's always the guys! Damnit!
If he was driving your car how were you getting around?
What an idiot to take advantage like that. You should kick him ;)
gwen, i don't know if it's "always" the guys because i will be the firs tot admit i'm pretty irresponsible, but not when it affects other people! i'm just really irresponsible about my own shit. like the fact that i am up to my ears in credit card debt. lol. if you borrow something, you take good care of it, bring it back in as good or better condition, and bring it back asap! ughh
stephanie, i had to share my mom's car with her. yes, it was inconvenient.
Ugh... what a jerk! And to think you were nice enough to let him borrow your car for so long. The nerve of him to not even send a little cash to pay off the ticket which he incurred. tsk tsk...
