Oooh... Moral dilemma!
So I just got a robot message on my machine, from the ex-girlfriend's credit card company.

"This is a courtesy call, you asked to be notified when you were approaching your credit limit. You are within $200 of your limit."

Do I call her and tell her? :rofl:

3. Not only no, but hell no.
She's someone's problem now.

In fact, a band I'm familiar with wrote a song about it:

Artist/Band: Derailers
Lyrics for Song: Someone Else's Problem
Lyrics for Album: Full Western Dress
Bill Carter/Tony Villanueva

Chorus:
Now she's someone else's problem, and I'm finally free
From all the daily heartache, and nighttime misery
Troubles they'e all over, she's just a memory,
Someone else's problem, that's all she is to me

I was going crazy out of my mind
Closer to the edge day by day
Step by step walkin' that line
When another fool stepped in to take my place

Repeat Chorus

I was always out of money and working overtime
While she ran up my bills I couldn't pay
All my friends say she's lookin' fine
Since she's been gone I feel the same way

Repeat Chorus

5. I know. The band just isn't the same without him.
I almost literally ran into Tony a couple months back. He (and the rest of the band, too) are just really nice guys.

7. It wasn't really a question
Edited on Tue Oct-24-06 08:02 PM by Robb
I just hope her little homewrecker is as rich as she says he is. :D

Edited to posit: I wonder if she's let him in on her credit card debt just yet? :rofl:

10. I didn't know How to tell my ex
when I started getting calls from his cell phone company. :shrug:

Thinkin' about it, I dunno if I'd have called him if I could have.

12. No
It is her responsibility to notify all of her credit cards and whoever else she owes money to. It isn't your problem.

22. It's her fault for not giving them the correct phone number, but...
...I would call, only when sure I could leave a message, just to let her know. And, I would definitely say in the message that there is no reason to call you back. That way, you have a clean conscience.
