I was contacted today by an ex-girlfriend from long ago. We dated for several years, owned a house together (with a pool), but it just didn't work out in the end. It was an amicable split, and the house was the only thing we owned together, so we filed all the legal paperwork to get me off the mortgage. Or so we thought.
Recently, she was trying to get a small business loan (I assume using the house as collateral), and the bank sent her paperwork that her husband needed to sign.
My name was on the form.
We were never married.
And she has a husband.
According to the bank the paperwork we filed ten years ago wasn't legal in the state of Texas. And that's a problem since that's the state where we actually live. And apparently our lawyer at the time was an idiot.
So, she's working with the bank to get the proper paperwork for us to sign. Until then, I wonder if I can use the pool.

No, it was just a joke.
Maybe you can bring her to the choir social? ;-)
