I am a Mom of 3 awesome kids, all college graduates, and Grandmom of 2. I was a stay at home mom and loved every minute of it. I now work full time trying to live in California to be near my family.
I have been divorced 13 years. My ex-husband has always been a terrible provider. I have come to realize that he is a con-artist and liar. How could I have been so stupid.
Hoping to keep his business going during covid I agreed to put $16,000 on my credit cards and take out a SBA loan for $19,000. 5 years ago he asked to “borrow” $15,000 (all the money I had in the world and left to me by a family member) telling me I would have it back in 1 week. That was 5 years ago and he still hasn’t paid any of it back. $50,000 would get me whole. I am having a terrible time keeping up with the interest payments and haven’t been able to pay anything off.
Working full time to keep my head above water I don’t have a lot of time to see my kids and grandkids who live 7 hours away. I am definitely not the Grandmother I always wanted to be.
He lost our house and I have rented for 15 years trying to pay the high housing costs of California. I am still hopeful that I will have my own house again because that is who I am-a homeowner.
I don’t need new things-I drive an old car, use an old phone and love thrifting! I don’t value “things”. I do value family, peace, and freedom.
This debt is killing me and I have been stuck in this for so long. I need to break this link to him to find peace and freedom.
Thank you to everyone who will even read my story. I wish you Love and Peace.
