Most friends loan each other money with the understanding that they will get their money back, or some friends loan each other money and not expect it back because in the lender's eyes, that's his/her friend so they get a pass. This Strawberry Letter is proof of why if someone decides to loan their "friend" money, they should consider it a grant because odds are, (s)he won't get it back, as is the case with this letter. This woman didn't have to loan her friend money, but she did it because he was in need. Now this jerkoff shows his behind and talks junk to her like "forget you, I'm not giving you nothing" She flipped the script on this joker and decides to take him to court, and now he gets in his feelings. He should've thought about that before he decided to flex on his friend. Newsflash bro: At that time, you needed her more than she needed you. She didn't have to give you the $600, but she did it because y'all were tight. All he had to do was pay her back, and there would be no need for a claim. Or if he couldn't pay at once, he should've agreed to $150 a month for 4 months.
Because she filed a claim for her $600, this COULD damage their friendship. Money usually does that, especially if one friend owes the other. This is why unless you and someone are really close, it's best not to loan money because you may not get it back; I'm just being honest. You want to help your friends (and you should) because by default, you think highly of them and understand they'll appreciate the gesture, but sadly, some so-called friends will react just like this guy did to her. She has every right to be hurt, but she has to reconsider her friendship with him. If he pulled this, there's no telling how he could try her. To go Biblical, don't give the devil any inch in your life because he will go all the way. Stick to your guns ma'am, and get your money by any means necessary. If this damages your friendship with him, tough nuggets. He brought this on himself, so he should be mad at himself for showing his behind. Knowing how I am, I probably would've said: I've been waiting for too long, I'm out of patience. If you don't have my money, I'm gonna mask up and take it.
