One Of The Best Days Of My Life Has Turned Into One Of The Worse

Haha, thanks. It's funny how when I slow things down everything goes wrong.

Back on topic. If it were the other way around it would be no different. Her parents are just looking out for her. It sucks, but it happens often.
 
She is at fault if she was in a parking spot and backing up.
 
My wife just got hit a few weeks ago leaving her sisters apartment complex. She slowed down to go over a speed bump and a guy backed into her. Our insurance and his both agreed it was his fault.
 
I would demand payment. if they dont want to pay get a lawyer and hit them for those fees too.

[sarcasm]I don't know, man, he told her he was leaving, why should she have to look behind her when backing out? I mean, what were the chances that anyone else might have been driving around in a parking lot? [/sarcasm]

Yeah dude. Totally her fault! Ask her parents who they'd blame if you'd backed into her on your way out of a parking space. Then tell them to fix your ******* car!
 
Two years huh? If you break up with her, the pressure from that will make her go ballistic on her parents. It will work out. :)

actually i talked to my gf again and she was willing to pay for it or at least help me. but her mom claims she saw the whole thing and its not her daughters fault so at this point thats why they arent wanting to pay.

I thought you said they were willing to help pay. Maybe they shouldn't pay all of it, but remember you have a responsibility to your-self and your family, too. Besides, why are they worried about insurance. If it really your fault like they claim, their insurance won't have to pay out right? Sounds like you should shrug your shoulders and lay blaim on your parents...say they made you file the claim.

Why people (the GF's parents) worry about petty sh!t like this when they have insurance, I'll never know.

she keeps tellin me that im just showing that my car is more important than her, im not asking her to buy me a new one, im asking for the cost of the repairs since she was responsible for the accident. I dont see how that makes me care about my car.
Well I would tell her to piss off. Your car is more important. I see two things wrong here. One and the most important is her family don't like you! If they did and it was her fault they would pay no problem. But the mom said she saw it and it wasn't her fault. So either she's a liar or you are, one of the 2. I would bet it her. In any case this relationship will never go any where.

Secondly, if she was at fault and gave or is giving you a hard time then she's got issues and that is cause for dumping. That and the car is always more important then the girl. Mainly because you can only ride the girl so far before you dies on you. The car gets you to work or school hell or even to her house. Oh and more so the car will be here long after she has left you for some one that has money. Those type stay in there own crowd most of the time.

I say get what you can, then leave.
 
Oh and by the way. I think you were at fault. You pulled up behind a female diver, and shes under 20! That's just asking for it.

did your and your wifes insurance go up? cuz it seems like insurance companies will screw you any way they can or else i would report it but im afraid theyll try to raise my rates too even though i really didnt do anything wrong, and i have 2 witnesses in the car with me that both agree that i did nothing wrong. and they had a first hand perspective while her mother was on the other side of the parking lot and had a passenger blocking her view and all i could see was the passenger so i think shes just lying about seeing the whole thing cuz she a B!T&
 
Nope. No rate increases (We have progressive the guy who hit her has Allstate). My insurance company even offered to fix the repairs then go after their insurance (if we didn't want to wait for the claim to go through Allstate)

It turns out the repairs are estimated at $498, and I got the check in the mail on Friday. Allstate will cover anything over the estimate so long as I take the car to their recommended body shop. Which, in this case is Sterling, and it just so happens to be two blocks from my house.

I say let the insurance handle it. They'll get statements form everyone and make a call based on that and a police report if there is one. They'll know if one persons story is vastly different from everyone else's.
 
Do what ever you need to do to get her to help pay for it then leave. If she loved you it would be no big deal to her and she would have fix it willingly. I know it sounds harsh, like she told you, she loves money more then she loves you.
 
Your insurance will not go up if it is determined that the accident was not your fault. Your insurance company will go after her insurance company for the money.

I have a feeling this relationship isn't going to last much longer.

that was my first thought as well. I think that if my (future) daughter/son hit their gf/bf's car and I actually liked the kid, that I would do everything I could to right the situation. It sounds like her parents dont care, enough so to make me think they dont like you or your relationship with their daughter. Think about it... If it was a complete stranger, this post wouldnt be here.

My thoughts - contact you insurance company and let them know, theyll do all the other work to contact/collect payment from her insurance company. THEN tell her/her parents that you couldnt afford to fix it yourself and HAD to go through the insurance company. That way you wont look like the badguy by calling her out on something she should be fixing anyway.
