RE: WHY I HATE LENDING MONEY OUT. THIS IS A STORY OF HOW I GOT MYSELF IN TROUBLE WHILE TRYING TO HELP A FRIEND.
I also learned not to lend people money... the hard way.
Not so long ago, I made a comment on a post saying this and someone replied to it with this statement:
The best way to get rid of a friend is to borrow him money.
Sad, but true...
Very true... I will always choose to loose my friendship and get my money. If you never planned to pay me back then you were never my friend...
Hey, i have really missed you... Nice to have you back
Thanks. Glad to be back. Not 100% yet, but getting more active every day :0)
I find it hard to understand that people are lending money from someone and then never mention it again. I wouldn’t be able to look myself in the eye, let alone sleep at night. But apparently I am an exception on this.
So I decided to not lend money again. Last week, I turned down a request from my niece. I’m pretty sure she would pay me back, but ‘pretty sure’ is not good enough anymore.
As for the rest of the people that owe me money, I’ve simply let go. There is no use in staying mad at them. I just consider it as a lesson I needed to learn...
If you refuse to lend money, its a choice... You dont owe anybody anything, As long as they didn't contribute in helping you earn the money. Yes, not only you. I feel like ashamed whenever i see somebody i am owing, but some people dont care.
I am a little busy at the moment, I will check your blog later. I can't wait to see what you will write about your past experience
Blogging is still fairly limited for now. Takes up a lot of energy I don’t have yet. So there is not a lot there yet. Slowly picking it up again, but easy does it :0)
Glad to have run into you again.
