While I was in college, I never signed up for a lot of credit cards and things like that. In fact, I graduated from college with ZERO credit cards of my own. Fast forward 3 years and I check my credit report after being turned down for an apartment. I shows that I was listed as an authorized user on 5 of my mother's MAXED OUT and delinquent credit cards. One even resulted in a judgement!!!!
I'm so angry with her for not letting me know that she had listed me (and only me) as an authorized user without me knowing about it. We had a huge fight, she apoligized and said that she kept it from me all of this time because she didn't think it would show up on MY credit history...just hers. Well, it does and now my credit score is a 589! VERY LOW. I can't get approved for virtually anything and am having a hard time finding another place to live.
How do I forgive her for things that will affect me for the next 7 years?!
