Y'all warned me.
"Don't be friends with your tenants."

"Oh, but... reason x, y, z."

Lesson learned. Shitty.

1. This is one reason I decided to sell my house instead of renting it out.
I'm far too soft-hearted, and too much of a worry-wart.

Thank (insert diety here) it's sold (pending final closing).

Sorry, dude. You don't deserve to have been taken advantage of. :hug:

2. We'll see what happens.
It's not a financial issue, more of a friendship/relationship/emotional one. Ugh. Dunno yet if it will pan out into a financial one. Hope not.

3. Unfortunately, it can start out emotional, then turn financial.
"Oh you see, now that you know my issue, can you cut me some slack on the rent...?"

I hope it doesn't, but I'm cynical sometimes. :(

4. Hrm.
Nope, it's not like that, I already *know* all the issues and tried to help, and wound up in the middle of it. I've never told anybody off before, and I didn't yell, but I can't be in that position anymore, and I'm going to lose them both as friends. It sucks.

5. Ohhhhh....now, I get it.
Yeah; that REALLY sucks. You got sucked in (no pun intended).

It's that trying to help thing. Sometimes I think "no good deed goes unpunished" is the truth.

One more :hug:

6. Thanks, dude.
Indeed, I did. At least what I did tonight was not done in anger (eventually), but in sadness. Thanks for the hugs. :hug:

8. You'll get cookies!
DAMN GOOD cookies! One time I talked to Lynz and helped her feel better about a friendship problem, and next thing you know - some of the BEST chocolate chip cookies I ever had showed up in the mail! :D

(How are you liking the winter solstice up in that northern latitude?) :D


COLD here in L.A!! Hit 40 last night! :scared: BEAUTIFUL snow on the mountains, which made me think of my Old Seattle Home. :-)

9. Maybe I should PM my address!

Dude; snow was totally NOT in the brochure. I worked from home today.

That said, it's gorgeous.

11. I can't do that.
Even if they are yummy, and my normal cookie connection isn't baking for me this year.

That just sounds bad - like inviting myself to dinner.

Now you got me wanting cookies though. :9
