Why should I talk to you?
My ex wasn't good for me. She took 3 loans out in my name, gave up work for 8 months because she wanted to concentrate on her "Art"; I once got up the nerve to leave her but she feigned a pregnancy scare.

I eventually met someone else through my job, and to be honest I was going to leave her then anyway as I'd got a new job miles away from her. I get home one Tuesday, and the phrase "we need to talk" is uttered by her.

Turns out, standing in the kitchen is her entire family, carrying all her stuff out of the house into a Transit in the drive. She asks me to go for a walk, i say "bollocks, tell me now". She says she leaving, to go home to be with her Ex as he wants a family with her as soon as possible. (They'd been MSN'ing each other while I was at work. I found very interesting pictures on my PC when I looked later that night.) She loves me but "it's her". I say ok, go to the fridge, get a beer and turn on the TV. They carry on moving stuff out.

As her Ma & Pa are leaving, I give them a copy of her bank statement (£1500 overdrawn), the 3 loans totalling £7k taken in my name, her £4500 credit card statement - all which I'd been paying. "Call it £12k what shes me owes. You pay me £10k, I accept cash." Turns out she told her parents she was still working and her debts were £750.

In the end, they paid me off. £11k 6 weeks later. Even better, she got pregnant, married and seperated in under 15 months.

Result.
