How long does it usually take for someone to show their true colours? Apparently a long time.
A friend of a year and a half who just recently went on a trip with me just decided that she wasn't going to pay me some money that she owes me.
I feel pretty stupid right now. How did I not see this side of her personality? Is it because people can hide certain parts of their personality well, or was I just being naive about her? Or maybe a little bit of both? |

it took about 2-3 years for me to see some of my best friend's not so nice qualities, but i've learned to see past them |

| it's not your fault. I have had similar things happen to me before. I guess that some people are just really good at hiding certain parts of their personality. |

When someone does something as petty as rip you off, it's kind of hard to see past that. |

Money is always a point of contention.
what exactly is the context? Did she just say, "I don't want to pay you!" Did she explain why?
Really ty nonetheless. |

I don't think it's a matter of 'hiding parts of their personality', but rather not being faced previously with a situation in which such personality traits would've been shown... |

Yes, she did explain why. There is a long background story, but basically what happened was, there was a fight (unrelated to money) that transpired between us on the weekend that we went away. Because I "ruined her weekend", she has chosen to terminate the friendship and to refuse to pay me the money that I owe her.
Since the trip ended, I have realized that she is crazy, so trying to make sense out of the situation may be futile. |

it's true. but whatever you want to say it is, it is wrong to do that to a friend. it definitely breaks the trust factor and makes you feel horrible inside. |
