Hi,
It's been a while since I've had to post anything and I guess I should count myself lucky that for all intents and purposes things between my ex and I are acceptable. Se 30 was 1 year since separation and I am in SUCH a better place now than I was then. It truly is amazing to me.
but that's not why I'm here. I am here again because a close friend needs help and I just don't know where else to turn to help. I did get some great advice here so I thought that SOMEONE here may have some idea of what to do.
here's the situation: my friend and her ex have finally separated after quite a while of bad blood between them. he has cheated numerous times and now he has emptied the bank account 2 days before rent is due for the second month in a row leaving her with no way to pay the rent. her landlord let it slide the first time but not any more. now the sheriff has become involved and she'll be forcibly evicted on monday with nowhere for her and her 2 girls to go. Meanwhile he's at his new girlfriend's place which was paid for by the rent $$$ he took from her account.
Because of his financial mismanagement (I'm being kind there) her credit is ruined. so here she is with two kids, no way to get the $$$ she needs for back rent, no time to get a new place before the sheriff comes and literally nowhere to go. she has a great job and makes good $$$ and can easily cover the rent as long as he's not taking her cash.
So my question(s) to everyone here is what can she do? What options does she have? Is there any help available for her govt, private or otherwise? I'd step in myself but I can barely cover my own life right now and I just am not able to do anything other than try to find answers for her.
I really do appreciate any info or advice any of you may have. Thanks.
Richard
