Im gonna add that I think this "ration" behind not paying you back is immature as well.
How old are you here?
You came, so ing pay me your share of the money that you owe me. If I hadn't ing spotted you you would have had to pay and would have paid, so PAY ME BACK!
Dont try to justify that bc you had a bad time that its a reason you dont HAVE A FREAKIN' OBLIGATION to pay a person back!
I wouldnt and couldnt even do this to an ex I hated if that'd been the case. You owe - then you owe... how can you with a good conscious feel you have a right now to pay this person back!
It flabbergasts me this mentality and way of thinking!
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: |
I couldn't have said it better myself, Jem. Whenever I borrowed money from a friend, I would feel sooo guilty until I paid them back. That's why I hate borrowing...
I was best friends with a girl for quite a while. She really wanted a stereo system, but didn't have the money on her. So I lent her the money to buy it (over $500) and told her to pay me back as soon as she could. Well, three years have passed, and I am still out the $500+. People who take advantage of a friendship are not true friends at all. It didn't take me too long to find that out.
friends > money |

Well, I don't expect ppl to be the "real" them right away with me. Certain aspects of personality come out only once you are comfortable enough to show them. I don't see it as hiding your "true" personality, I see it as simply getting to know a person. |
I know what you mean, and I underastand it, Im just saying that I personally just want to be myself right away. Because I'd rather them get to know me as me, rather then get to know me, like what they know, and then all of a sudden be myself, but then not like me. Jjts personal choice, but yes you are right. |

Yep, it's definitely a personal choice. I was just trying to justify people's unwillingness to be "them" right away :) |

I have learned the hard way. I lend very few people large sums of money.
Money is actually the number one reason for divorce! So if people that are supposed to love each other for many years and can't get past the money issue, then that's not a good sign :(
Money wields evil and greed for many! :whip: :whip: :whip: |

depends on the friend and whoever. a buddy of mine owed me money, but at other times I owed him. We were cool with not paying each other back right away.
theres another dude I know who owes me $300 from 2 yrs ago. :whip:
Money issues are delicate to deal with between friends. Everyone is different and you have to decide what you guys will do on a case by case basis. I wouldnt NOT pay them back though(unless they owed me something). |

Sorry to hear about your lose Graham. And don't worry...there was probably nothing you could do about it...it has happened to me and I'm sure many others...where you've been friends with someone for a long time and you feel like they completly stab you in the back.
Why did she say she just wasn't going to pay you? |

Yes, I think this is the case as well. |

Hey Graham...
Fraser and I recently have had to go through the ordeal of realizing that a person who we'd known for five years ripped us off for 7 grand.
As much as losing the money hurt, what hurt more is realizing that you had misjudged someone's character so badly.
The only thing I was able to take from the situation is that regardless of monetary value, it is better to not have such people in your life.
Whether its 150 or 7 grand, try to look at the silver lining and say that at least now you know and wont be taken advantage of again by that person.
As much as it sucks, you are now a stronger person for it, and likely wont let it happen to you again. |
