[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 445116, member: 4264"] Yuppers! I've had to do this re: my difficult child bro. Alternately even though it was known by someone, a friend but not close one, that I loathed one of my ex's (I've since stopped loathing and now just find him annoying lol), when I heard he was going to try to manage a payment plan to purchase a car from this person I made sure to tell the person that although it was common knowledge that I don't like the guy he WAS trustworthy and reliable with debts etc and I felt they shouldn't worry in setting up payments with him. You don't have to be FULLY honest and come across as the bitter ex. Keep it simple. Oh by the way, heard X is thinking of renting your house. I had heard recently that he and his g/f were asked to leave their current place and there was damage done and monies owing (or whatever you want to share, keep it simple/short). I may be misinformed but I do hope you check his references and speak to current landlord just in case. Can't say I vouch for the accuracy of what I heard so don't take my third party word as gospel, anyone can change and he may well have grown up. Or, just be honest depending what the dynamic is with you and this friend. Easy to say that yes I have issues with him but if he was a good prospective tenant it wouldn't come to mind at all to speak to you about renting to him. My issues have nothing to do with the fact that I've learned he and g/f are being tossed out and have damaged the place. If thats true, I'd hate to see you get burned. If I heard wrong and you received a good reference from current landlord, just disregard since its just what I "heard". I guess I'd care less if they "suspect" its just me being bitter than if I saw good people get burned from someone you can kinda predict has a high chance of burning them. Glad he's your ex! [/QUOTE]
