Answer 1

If you name is on everything, YOU OWN IT! Trade in the vehicle,get him off your insurance(liability), and try to have a better life! Good luck to you! ;-)=

Answer 2

*Deep sigh* Reo, you are in a holding pattern; so are others, waiting to see how you progress. If, in 'real' life, you are the same as you are here, (and I assume most people are), then your moods are kind of mercurical. You are dealing with a lot right now, and it shows. You knew the truth; you left the truth; you felt a loss, you returned to the truth. Now, you are fighting your way back, and it's harder than you expected it to be. Your words are sometimes not tactful, and you seem angry. Your enthusiasim for what is right is obvious; but sometimes we don't feel brotherly love coming from you, and maybe that is the same feeling your friend is picking up on. He might just be waiting to see how long your about-face is going to last. He might be a little gunshy about getting close, because he is not sure. He may be hurt, for his own sake, and for Jehovah's sake, too. Everyone reacts differently, and I personally would not have snubbed you if I had been in your friends situation, but that's me. I have seen lots of friends come and go, and some return, and that's always a joyful thing to me. I can't speak for your friend, but I do know that the bibles advice is to go to him, lay out your problem with him, and give him the chance to tell you how he feels. Is your wife a witness? Somehow, I missed that-if so, they may be taking the side of your wife, and that may be coloring how they treat you. Please, please do not blame Jehovah's organization for the cool treatment you might get when you return from the world. Some of the friends may just be leery, not eager to get too close, for fear that your return is short-term. I am glad you are studying, I am happy you are commenting in meetings, your progress is a joy to me. I always answer your questions if I see them, and I think I have something good to add. I hope this doesn't make you angry with me, but I feel I need to be honest. Don't judge too harshly;, after all, he has seen you make progress before, and then fall backward. It probably has him nervous. The best way you can mend fences, and possibly feelings, is for you to continue to move forward in your studies, and to put on the new personality. Live your life in such a way, that it proves all negative thoughts about you to be wrong. I truly, truly wish the best for you, I want to meet you someday, under your own vine and fig tree, along with the other brothers and sisters here, and around the globe. You belong with us, or Jehovah would not be drawing you a second time. Agape, Leslie

Answer 3

If you own the car, you can do what you want with it. You're going to have a hard time buying another car if yours was repossessed, so take this car and drive it yourself. Tell the ex to go pound sand.

Although it would be *nice* of you to refund his deposit, but he did have the use of the car for however long, and he should expect to pay for that.

A little unsolicited advice: For your next boyfriend, find one that isn't a bum. They're out there, you just have to look to find one.

Answer 4

You can turn it in, but only if you two never put anything in writing stating that the car was his but in your name. He may have paid late, but he still paid, so technically all money you get for the trade in is his (as far as what he paid into it so far). If he says he doesn't want it or doesn't care, then go for it - but you better have a conversation with him first so you don't end up in small claims court with him suing you for the $$ he already put into the car.

Answer 5

You legally own the car....

this happened to me once and i gave the bum his car and in hindsight, I should have taken it, it wasn't long before he got rid of it for way less than it was worth and I just thought if he had it then I would never have to see or deal with him again, since he's saying he doesn't care, he realises how much he owes you and probably want the car but knows he doesn't deserve it.

take it!

Answer 6

Why dont u complain to the police,car is under ur name right..good luck

Answer 7

if he takes you to court he can get the 500 back, so you should offer that back.then you would be right.

Answer 8

go for it... if he wants to act like a child and not do anything to help you or the relationship out, then forget him... go for it and make yourself happy... :)

Answer 9

If it's titled in his name, you CANNOT trade it in yourself. Only he can. PERIOD.

Answer 10

ITS IN YOU NAME SO DO WHAT EVER YOU WANT WITH IT.
