He's owed it since February and I've been telling him I need it back. He keeps telling me he doesn't have it. But he keeps posting poo poo on Facebook that he shouldn't have before he pays me back. Like I dunno, a loving PS4 with 3 games that he didn't have a month ago. Like, am I being a dick about this or should I be steadily getting more agitated with this poo poo? He did this with a Wii U a couple of months back as well. I want to tell him to quit being a gently caress head and give me the money or one of the systems that he's gotten in the past few months that he should have used the money that he spent on them to pay me back, but then I run the risk of not getting my money back.

"It's a pretty good post."
HATE post
"I don't understand"
SHIT ON post
"You shit on the post. Why."
you learned an important lesson OP

That lesson is that there's often no friendship when it comes to money

Never loan money you can't afford to write off as total loss. Better never loan money, period.

I actually read the entire OP and you're even more boned than I thought lol. He used you for $400 and I now know for a fact he isn't an actual friend dude

you cant buy friends OP

well you can but it costs more than $400 tbh AND you have to be like friend material after the fact to keep it goin

don't loan money unless you're okay with not getting it back


e: although there was this kid in school who would loan <50 and take a decent ti calculator as collateral and he probably came out on top if i think about it

This is like the third or fourth thread of yours detailing your terrible life skills & dreary social life & I can't tell if you are just making fun of e/n people or are that bad at life for realsies. Just take him on Judge Judy & get the justice you deserve.

Important life advice when you give money to a friend it is always a gift and not a loan, if they pay you back it is just a happy surprise.

Don't lend money to someone unless you somehow otherwise have leverage over that person. I have done something similar recently though, although I expect to get paid back, cause my friend is cool and generally honors his commitments. I've been that rear end in a top hat in the past though

i fronted someone $400 in value of items once a long time ago because I worked with him and knew where he lived and he was generally cool. of course, the items were "stolen" and he'd pay me back asap

I just got on his rear end non stop until he did. in the end, they have to know its going to cost them more than the money they failed to pay you. Wow, 4 flat tires and tows in a week? thats some luck
