Losing Friendship for MONEY

My best friend borrowed money from me,but I didn't ask him to pay anymore.By the way he does not borrow from me huge amount of money.Those little pennies don't really matter to me because he is very good.I know he is not using our friendship to get some money from me because he also do the same to me.He lends me money when I need it.He also usually treats me food a lot.Our friendship is like mutualism.I give him,and he gives me not minding the payment.

This is absolutely why I don't mix money and friends. Well I mean I don't lend or borrow from friends, never. I think it just creates misunderstandings and may even break the friendship. I have seen it happen and would never want it to happen to me.

Actually the opposite was true because there was a friend I did loan money to a couple of times but did not pay me back. Naturally this person decided to come right to me for again. However, the first couple of times, I wondered where my money was and really it was during a point where I could not afford to loan out money to anyone. Naturally when I told him the reasons, he acted like it was some kind of unforgivable betrayal. Despite the fact that I might have had the money had he paid me back previously. In all of my days, I will never get some people, I'll tell you that much. Money can come between friendships for a reason. Whether its lending it out and not getting paid back or whatever. That is why I am reluctant to ask anyone for monetary help if I need it, because there is a small chance that I might nto be able to pay it back.

It is so sad when money matters come between a relationship whether it is friendship or romance. True friends do not hide from you when it is your turn to ask from help from them. But sadly this is not all true. There are some people who look to me for financial help back then but when it was my turn to ask for their help they were in hiding. Right now I am glad to know which of them are my true and real friends.

I have a friend who has work in a collecting agency. And she has this saying that If you want to loose a friend or want a friend to get mad at you, all you have to do is lending him/her money. And that's was actually making sense. I lend money to my friend whom I only knew for months and never returned it to me. The nerve that even blocked me on facebook! I just hated him so much I always think that why did he loose his reputation for money.

its not good luck when my friend cant pay money..they can try to make money pay u

I certainly did, everytime I try to collect she says she has no money. Eventually she got married, went to the USA, has a good life now and forgot all about her obligation with me. Well that's life, you just charge it to experience so they say.

Yes I have seen types of people who would really give up friendship over money, and I can share the same sentiments. I have a friend (I'm glad we're not that close), who does not know how to manage her money. Every pay day, she would spend all her money in going out with her other friends, barhopping, going to some other places. A week after, she does not have the money to buy food and she borrows money from other people. He principle is like living a day by spending all her money like there's not tomorrow. One time, when she texted me, she asked if she could borrow some money, I told her that I did not have any. She was okay with it. But after one day, she posted something in her facebook wall that's like Real friends will help you if you're in need, especially if you do not have enough money... something like that. Good thing we're not that close.

Yes. I had a friend who I borrowed $150.00 she said she would give it back every time I ask her but she'd get mad and get an attitude every time I asked her. She stopped talking to me and I never got my money back.

I learned a lesson when I was in my teens with this guy who would take me for drives in his very loud very fast car. It was alright, something to do and there were always three or four of us that went on what they referred to as cruising. Well one evening this guy, he was nice was alone and asked me if I could help him because he was having a delay in his pay or something. I did lend him some money and I thought at the time if he was actually hinting that maybe everyone in the car should donate money for gas which was cheaper then than it is now but somehow I don't think that was an issue. Anyway, I never saw him again and thought it was possible that maybe it was for the reason I loaned him money. It hurt more than the money because I do value friendship so I call him (got his number) and just asked him outright if he wanted people to chip in for fuel costs. He said no that wasn't it and he would give it back but he never made an attempt to pay me back or contact me again. I just decided somehow I would never let money ever get in the way of friendship again.

I never give importance to money, in the place of friendship. If we lose money, we can earn anypoint in our life. But if we lose good friends, we cant get it back
