there was a recent topic where a guy was considering messing up an ex-friend's facebook over $2000 and some blatant disrespect
consensus seemed to be the op was a bytch who deserved it
i want to give a different perspective on being burned by people we think are our friends
so freshman year of college, i was a fish out of water but made a new friend
we were stealing car radios all around town
then we branched out and started traveling to nearby cities to make our little crime wave
he got caught by the cops for acting suspicious but they had no direct evidence
i was sweating bullets but he apparently left my name out of it
we mutually agree to cut it out
a couple days later he shows up asking for a $1000 loan
saying he was strapped because of lawyer plus his situation
i didn't have it- i only had $1100 for myself- but i loaned him half of it
he said he'd pay it back soon-
so i waited...sitting around like a dummy...and i waited some more
i tried to call him and he said "not a good time" and to let him breathe
meanwhile i had to pull some crazy maneuvers just to keep my own bills paid
after almost a month i found out the truth from a girl-
my "partner" had made it seem like we had similar backgrounds
but he came from a well-off family- they had even wired him $5000 that month
a bunch of other shyt- basically he wasn't even from the town he had claimed
i went off by myself like
then i got real mad
he hadn't evne needed a loan but had taken money i didn't have to give
i felt like charles bronson in the mechanic- this dude had been playing me
soaking up everything i said but meanwhile i knew nothing "real" abut him
me being too stupid to wonder how he was supposed to be broke
yet somehow he has an off-campus apartment and a car
while i am in a dorm without a/c, and i'm walking or riding the bus
i remember feeling so mad i thought about killing the guy
i had asked for my money back and he had stiffarmed me
if i stole it back, then he would know it was me-
and he knew too much about me, too dnagerous to triplecross
so i got my emotions under control- if he had just asked for $550 to defray his expenses
i would have given it to him
it was the "loan" bullshyt that was burning my soul- plus all the blatant lies
rather than linger with revenge fantasies i decided to just keep it moving
dude had to be crazy, i figured- no way i would be stealing car radios for fun
and i got much more careful about telling everyone my business
so yeah, i took a few L's but those were lessons i apparently needed to learn
i felt weak as hell for being suckered like that but $550 is a small price to get someone like that out of your life
