I just realize that some people want to be friends with you because they want to get something from you. I know what it is but i just couldn't believe it happened to me. She just wanted to be closer with me because she needs someone to lend her some money and tolerate her disobedience on the policy. I never wanted to be close with her but bribing me with some things and food fooled me. She has performed lots of anomalies, I guess. Well, hope she's happy. From all those people that she'd hurt, I don't think "karma" will not chase after her.
I learned my lesson. I should be wary for these kinds of people. Though, it is a bit hard but i will never let myself be fooled again.
Happy mylotting.

Hi there Tess,
Indeed. We should take extra care from those people. I too, have encountered a person who befriend me then after some time, she asked a lot of favors from me. Ranking from very small to big favors. And during those times, I really dont know how to confront her though my sisters chase me to do. All I did was pray. I just lift everything to God. For I know He is very much aware what was happened.
And to your situation, perhaps, try to raise every bits in prayers. This will surely help you.

It's good to know that maybe she was not worth being your friend.Such friends are there and in layman's language we say that they have a sweet talking mouth.They are so tricky such that sometimes you just offer to give them whatever that they need without you realizing.Another tactic that they use is always talking how they have problems and so anybody who listens to all this will still give in to assist.From my experience,it's hard to make such people to disappear from your life because if one way fails they still get another way to use you with their many lies.

hi there that's too bad. i see that there are really these kind and i see that there are a number of this type. i mean i had a friend too who did fooled me and all she wanted was to make me of her type! and i hated it! she was the gossip goddess and when i realized it i hated her then i hated myself because i was fooled too. i was cautious in befriending someone but nah! she got me. she really has this good sales talk and that caught me. but then after all that i have also learned myself alesson i was cautious even more today when to give and when not to give my trust! happy mylotting too! :)

Though I always choose my friends, I am however friendly to everyone until a person proves otherwise. Even then, I still make attempts to always be civil. Again, I am always a friend to everyone, regardless, and would not hesitate to stand in the gap even for someone I wish to have nothing to do with.

That is definitely a tough lesson to learn. 
Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there. They really dont care at all about anyone else! They are never happy, and do their best to bring people down with them.
Glad that you have risen above them and are moving on with your life!! I have to agree that some day, they will get what they deserve!!

I had the same experience like your friend. I had a friend before who was very much the same attitude as your friend. I thought at first she was that friendly to me, later on I realized that she need something which I really did not expect she was planning to lend money and used me for her own benefit. She would pretend that she don't know our subject and would lie that she did not study but after the exam she would always say that she had answer everything correctly. I really hate recalling those things. But now I know that there are really people who can't be trusted.

It hurts a lot when you realize that the person you trusts betrays you.
I had a very close friend.At first everything was ok.We ate together,hanged out a lot,and did too many things to remember.But after some time his true color showed up.He always asked me to make his assignments.When we had quizzes he alwabys copied my works.I became like an instrument.He said if I didn't let him copy my works he will break our friendship.He was not a friend but a fiend.I broke our friendship because I was too tired of him.

There are many people out there that are just pure "con artists". I sure have run upon my share of them. It makes me mad more than it hurts me. Don't blame yourself for being fooled by it, because some people know just how it is done. I guess we just have to be more cautious, but they always catch us when our guard is down.
You said you never wanted to be close to her. Was there a reason for that or was there just a red flag that caused you to be suspicious of her.
