I Ask For Help/Advice (Personal Matter)

Well FYI......he STILL has my car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


>:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

and i just paid the registration renewal and insurance again!!!!!!!!!!

DUDE!  WHERE'S YOUR CAR?

LMAO .....

Ummm...my car? I used to have a Kia. But now it's sitting in a driveway 2 doors down. But I had 2 glasses of vodka/juice last night and sent a nasty text telling him how annoyed and dissapointed I am in him, and I'm tired of being stepped all over and my car is to be in my driveway by Friday.

He called apologizing saying he would never take advantage of us like that...we're his closest friends around here, "oh I was gonna get new tires put on"...blah blah blah.

So I'm going to Atlantic City this wkend and my car better be back home by the time I get back on Sunday!!! or I'm gonna have FIVE drinks, and he will meet "evil Gina" lol

oh, btw..he's a facebook friend...so you had to see, I updated my status the other night and said. " I offer to feed you and you bite my hand. Next time you can starve"

he didnt get the hint then either  >:(

lol..good luck in AC

good luck in AC and with your car.Time to stop being nice and let evil Gina take him on.He is no friend treating you like he is.Get out your azz kicking boots and reclaim your car.Good luck hon!!!

Just go and get YOUR keys off him acgofer - take YOUR car and put it back in your driveway where it belongs - no waiting til Friday!  Enough already! Go get YOUR car that YOU pay insurance on, that YOU bought and paid for.

You're just too nice and he knows it and if you don't go get it, I guarantee it won't be on your driveway on Friday and it'll just be another string of pathetic excuses.

You go girl! Well done, and don't let yourself get mellowed by his lame excuses. As blue said, it's your car, and you're absolutely entitled to it!

Just interested to know if your car is back in your driveway yet Acgofer?

blue

I'd be happy to take the greyhound up there and repo the car for you if I get the same driving privileges your neighbor did!

Seriously, though, get your car.

Nope....not yet. 

He said it was 'acting up' and got the transmission fluid and filter changed and said he was giving it back to me next week(this week)

I've already decided I am cleaning it up and selling it....Anyone want to buy a 2002 Kia Spectra? Used and abused by a cigar smoker with a heavy foot. If interested, call 800-I-KILL-CARS

I'm glad you've received that massive feedback so all I can add is:

Thx God for it's only a KIA...

Go and get your keys and take back your car!  Just do it.   Sometimes you have to do things that are uncomfortable and this is one of those times.   This man has crossed the line by a long long way and surely it's time to push him back over that line by asking for your car keys.

If you just can't do it - why not ask your husband to do it for you.

Good luck.

I'm well aware that such situations are very, very uncomfortable for the whole family, as this is a family friend in question. But still, if someone, anyone (even a family friend) is abusing the family's good will, I believe, just like blue, that the whole family should stand up to it.

I wish you the best of luck, girl, in overcoming this period of hardship. Please do keep us posted!

Well... He came over last night and returned my car! Holy crap! I think it may snow today!!!!!... Amazingly, he cleaned it up real nice too and filled the gas tank. I drove it this morning to take my daughter to school, and I had a bit of a hard time starting it. My neighbor said,"oh yea. It does that sometimes..maybe because its cold" mmmmmhhhmmmmm. Whatever.
No, he hasn't gotten his van or other car fixed yet....he was able to return my car, because he upgraded to my other neighbor's 2007 Mitsubishi!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good God, all I can say is 6mths waiting, I'm glad I have MY car back!! Guess he figured he dumped enough money into the kia, time to borrow someone else's.lol.
I'm sorry friends, but if any of you are ever in need of anything at all, for the 1st time in my life, I have lerned to "JUST SAY NO". Ask someone else... I'm not the one. 

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!!! This guy just borrowed another neighbor's car?!! WTF?!! Well AC I'm glad that you FINALLY got "your" car back...geez louise, that guy may have some good qualities but the bad ones over ride the good ones, he is truly a real piece of work,I wonder how many neighbors this guy will go thru before the whole neighborhood is aware of the car moocher........freaking unbelievable!!!!!!!

Phew - I'm relieved for you!

So glad you got it back and about time and all! 

blue

Yaaaay! Finally! Well done, girl, enjoy the fruits of your decision to stand up to the guy! Feels good, huh?

acgofer....glad you FINALLY got YOUR car back.If I move into your neighborhood,I'd sell my car first or carry a big picket sign saying CAR MOOCHER MUST MOVE!!!

lol...funny, I've been making excuses to drive it. Like yesterday, I drove my daughter to school, came home, went to the grocery store, came home, and went back to the store. Think I'll take it today to put air in tires- IF it starts! It's been hesitant starting. Maybe he destroyed the starter to. He already went through the alternator, battery, tran filter and fluid...im sure he killed the starter too. But I did notice he left his Aerosmith cd in my player...think I'll borrow it. For 6 months.
