Why do friends always want to barrow money?

That’s not actually a friend, it’s someone who basically sees you as an ATM. 🙁

There was an acquaintance whom I actually liked; she was fun. But I noticed that I didn’t hear from her unless she needed something (usually money), if I reached out she was generally "busy". I cut my losses and stopped providing "extra funds".

And if she’d gotten nasty when I couldn’t afford a loan, it would’ve happened a lot sooner !

I only had one friend ask for money, and since he was on food stamps, he really needed it. It wasn't a loan, and I was glad I was able to help him.

Not a friend, it's unfortunate but to be free of such will help boost your mood big time!!

Respectfully, that sounds like a very strange friendship. She still owes you, but still keeps borrowing from you? Friends are friends, not banks. And if you were a bank, you’d tell her to pay back what she owes first.
Sorry that you’re dealing with this.
The fact that she gets nasty is showing that she’s only seeing you as a fool I’m afraid 😞

You're already dealing with health issues. You don't need this.

I'm only joking here before someone gets offended, but she probably sees how you spell and figures she can get away with it :)

Try telling her you met a guy who will buy her debt from you for 20cents on the dollar, next time she asks. Mention he is central European..😷

Borrow*

Giiiirrrllll... Stop giving her your money... She's not going to be giving it back to you..

kk lemme borrow some money 😏

She wants to owe you more money, not less.

Scabs

Why does she need a barrow? Did you loan the 1k in pennies?

Her behavior is a form of manipulation

Shut her down by showing her where the bank is.
