    Vivek008,

    In my opinion, never lend money to a friend. Give it freely, without expectation, or don’t give it… depending on what feels best. Its not good to have debt between friends, it causes all sorts of problems. If they insist on it being a loan, for their conscience or feeling of self esteem, let it be, but on your side, let it be a gift. If they pay you back, huzzah! What fun, some extra money! Otherwise, why carry a ledger in your backpack? It only takes up room that could hold some flowers.

    With warmth,
    Matt

    Thanks Matt. Completely agree with your advice. I learnt this lesson the hard way few years ago and am glad that I am over this life lesson atleast for now 🙂

    Hi Vivek008

    It is a little difficult to understand your writing but from what I can gather, your sister-like-friend owes you money. You have been brave enough to ask her back for the money that she owes you but she hasnt and instead she calls you, “psychomaniac” ? You obviously dont like this “label” or her behaviour towards you. Is this correct ?

    If I were you, I would leave the emotions out of this transaction. On one hand, you love your friend like a sister and on the other hand, you feel sour as she is calling you names and not returning the money she owes you. If your love is sincere, leave the money out of it and hopefully, one day she will realise her mistake and return the money she owes. If the money is more important than this relationship for whatever reasons, then go through the right channels to get your money back.

    Remember, as money is important for survival, it can create rifts between loved ones and friends alike.

    In my experience, you cant have it both ways when it comes to money dealings with most people unless the transaction is a business deal or based on strong personal values or understanding (ie I take money from you for a personal need and I will return it ASAP ). If people could get away without paying their debts, I think many of us would avail that opportunity as it is an easier path to follow. A conscious person will not take this path, however, developing this mindset requires self awareness and spiritual growth.

    Perhaps, this experience has been put in your life so that you can grow and evolve from it. Dont be sad or go mental over it. Money can be earned but the moments that you have lost crying over it will never be earned back. So think about it. What is more important for you – your mental peace or lack of it ?

    Sending you loads of positive energy and hope you find whatever you are seeking,

    J
