I know you all remember me telling you about the lady that purposely overspent $19.19 out of my money that I gave her last month. And she also refused to pay me back this money too. Well, today around 3 pm this afternoon, she came by my house. I did not open up the door for her at all. My kids kept looking out of the window and I know that she saw them too. So, she kept on knocking at my door and I still would not open up the door for her. Trust me you guys when I tell you this, please believe me: She was not going to apologize to me at all. She never have and she never will. This woman will be so rude to me and then when she comes by my house, she will never say that she is sorry. She hung up on me, she was nasty to me, she got upset when I asked what did my husband owe her $15.00 for, she was so nasty to me, so I felt like that I did not have to open up my door to her. She has to understand that I am not someone that she can just disrespect and think that it is okay. She will learn that when she decides to hang up the phone on me that this is her last time in me ever doing anything else for her again. I know that she came by today to borrow some money from me, but I am not lending to her at all. I don't appreciate her being nasty to me, it is not fair at all. I deserve to be treated with respect, because this is how I have been to her for the longest that I have known her. I am so tired of her treating me like crap and then she will come over and ask for money when she knows that she does not deserve it. Well, cream97, ain't having it. I am tired of being used and misused by people. It is time that I stand up for myself and let people know that they just can't get away with doing me wrong anymore. I may not be able to stop all of my wrongdoers, but I will begin with this rude and nasty woman for starters!

cream97,
There's just so much one can take and tolerate, so you are really doing the right thing here. Standing up to her is really a bold move and I encourage you to remain firm with her. After all, she had her chances and since she does not cherish it than we will just have to withdraw that privilege which she so rightly does not deserve.
Kudos, for standing up here. Take care and you have a nice day.

I would never let someone disrespect me either. I wouldn't loan her any money when you can't get the last money back from her! No! No! Good for you! Show her and people like her that you only get fooled once, not again! Rude and nasty should get nothing and maybe afew times not answering the door and ignoring her will show her you won't let in.

Good for you. If we continue to let people use us they will continue to use us. It is hard enough to take care of ourselves financially then to have someone that just continues to use us. I have had that problem with people. What bothers me more then anything is people that brag about going to the movies or eating out with their family and then run out of money and want to borrow from me and I can't afford to go have fun like that.

Wow...ummm im speechless! It sucks that people like that even exist....sorry that was kinda mean but I hate when a person tries to take advantage of someone. They take their kindness for weakness and don't appreciate anything that people do for them. For me personally, it only takes one time for a person to be ugly with me. I shut them out of my life, I don't owe them nothing. I even had to do this with family members and I don't regret it at all. Misery loves company honey and enough is enough! Cut her off and let God handle her. She knows she owes you money but have the nerve to be ugly with you...NO it don't work that way. So what you'll be out of $19 but at least you know the headache of her is gone

Good idea cream as I have often said negativity in our lives is not necessary and surely if she is not going to be a responsible friendly person then why would anyone want to friend her.
Sadly people like her exist but the most wise thing to do is put distance and let her figure out on her own what her own wrong doings are about. You do not need that.

there are people who abuse people like you.They see that they can take money and this makes them very happy.It is very important to ignore even knock on your door saying that ivie no money or simply that you can not lend at the moment.Do not worry so proceed when two or three times will give you.Because the more you spend attention to this man the more he will harass you.Have a nice day!
