Struggling to get my money back from a "friend"😡
Three months ago, an old high school friend I barely kept in touch with suddenly messaged me. She was crying about her tough life and, at the end of our chat, hit me up for a loan. She guilt-tripped me, saying I was kind in high school and my family was better off, so I should help her out. After some intense messaging, I agreed to lend her $500.
But now, she’s dodging my requests for repayment. When I mentioned needing the money for a new phone screen, she flipped out, accusing me of being selfish for wanting my own money back. I stood my ground and sent her some firm messages, but now she’s ghosted me again!
It’s infuriating—I’m the one who loaned the money, and now I can’t get it back! Has anyone else dealt with this? How do you handle friends who won’t pay you back?
