Is there anything wrong in what I did

I had booked train tickets 5 days ago for an upcoming trip and one of my friends said she'll send me the money either yest or today. So today evening I messaged and asked her "Hey you'll be sending me today"? To which she replied "Hey don't worry I'll send you the money". Did I ask it the wrong way.

Don't ask her again for at least few days. And don't reply(confirm) whenever she sends money. When she asks again, tell her, "I have yet not got time to check my account, don't worry, I'll check the account and let you know". And take few days to respond.

Hopefully, this will make her understand that you were not unnecessarily worried about the money.

this just shows how people aren't on the same page as us, and aren't really aware of our real needs. Sort of! I've seen this happen a number of times and the person on the other end didn't understand the urgency, cause of whatever...meanwhile, back at the train station, or airport terminal...

Obviously your friend has not one worry about offending YOU. Or should I say, offending your finances?

You got it right and perhaps your friend has no intention of paying you for her train ticket.If she does not send you the money be prepared to be firm with her.You can say that if you don't receive the money by Friday you will have to cancel her ticket.You are not her ATM machine.

No, there was nothing wrong in your question. Your friend isn’t being real proactive in keeping her end of the bargain.

@Quimliqer Ok, I worry whether I offended her

Did you inform her that you are going ahead to book the tickets and book after her confirmation?

You could have rephrased the question like " when can I expect the ticket money or have you sent it already?"

But depends basically on your relationship..

Fingers crossed.. hope you get the money as soon

Yes of course. I booked only after her go-ahead. @in10RjFox

Eh not really. Asking 'when do you expect to' rather than 'you'll be sending me today' might have produced something more substantive. But might not have, either :/

Don’t sweat it. If she makes a stink out of the favour you did her, I would rethink your friendship

😆 you certainly where not blunt and rather up front to say the least[solitaire]

Nope, she answered the wrong way.

I don't think so
She should give it from her side

No and i hope she paid you
