    Ex Wife Told Me To Remove All My Stuff From Her Storage Unit. So I Did M OC My ex wife and I split because she cheated. So our separation was quite tumultuous (she still hasn't apologized for the act of cheating and still denies it even though I know beyond any reasonable doubt that she did). I was incredibly hurt at the time and I'll admit I wasn't acting my best. But I still tried to treat her fairly.

    When she left we agreed that she would take over the payment on our car because she needed it for work. Our other car was totally paid off and I couldn't afford the payment on the one that she drove. But I agreed to leave my name on the loan because her credit didn't qualify (tbh I didn't really have an alternative). I told

    her that she could keep it for as long as she made the payments. And that off she paid it off I would immediately sign her over the title. But if she started flaking on the payments I would have the car voluntarily repossessed. I also agreed to give her the washer and dryer on the condition that she

    take over the car payments. I had purchased the washer and dryer but had no use for them because I lived in an apartment at the time THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR LATER.

    Well, we inevitably got into a disagreement over the parenting of our children (I can't remember exactly what it was about tbh). And she randomly showed up with the car. Handed me the keys, and said "have fun figuring out how to make the payments" (she knew I couldn't afford them). And then

    ended with a "and get all your out of MY storage unit" (we hadn't finished untangling the mess of items in our jointly owned storage unit, but she wanted it done immediately because she was mad).

    So I did what she asked. I went over that day to get my out of OUR storage unit. While I was in there I saw the washer and dryer sitting in the corner and immediately remembered that I had only given them to her on the condition that she pay off the car. So I took them. I had absolutely 0 need for them at the time. But she had very specifically wanted MY out of her storage unit. So who was I to argue?

    She called me a day later screaming about it telling me that she had filed a police report. I just laughed knowing they wouldn't do anything because it was my property.

    THE STORY GETS BETTER: as it turns out she was just angry and actually wanted the car back. Well the day after she had dropped it off on me I got into a freak accident and totaled it (everyone was okay). So she ended up without a car and I never had to make a single payment on it. The universe wanted to maliciously comply with her demands.

    yParticle When I saw the title I was hoping all the boxes were yours so you left the storage unit with an absolutely chaotic pile of her stuff. 589 vark4731 OP Reply Share I'll admit that would have been better.

    EatMoreArtichokes Reminds me of when I split with my ex and was on the hook for the payments on her car. She totalled it a week later. Cheque came to me since I had the house. Insurance company never sealed the envelope, cheque had both names on it. Was great to pay it off with $4K leftover. Still had to split that with her after but a 20K sword dangling over my head was gone.

    measaqueen Perfect. She tried to make a big stink not thinking you would follow through. She lost her car and the washer/dryer because of her temper tantrum and she's the one to blame because you did everything but the book!

    Zoreb1 Sounds like you were better off w/o her. What happened with the car insurance payment? 98 Reply Share vark4731 OP. I got it. The insurance was in my name too. She wanted half of it but that wasn't happening. The check only had my name on it
