A netizen shared how she has a friend who will always ask her to pay first, whenever they go out for meals or watch movie and etcetera.
After paying, when they go home, the friend will conveniently “forget” to pay her back.
The netizen says that he is too paiseh to ask for her money back because its just about $10 each time.
But as time went by, the little amounts of money all added up to hundreds of dollars.
Here is the full story:
“i have this friend who always don’t pay me back my money. whenever we go out and eat, she will ask me to pay first and she say will pay me back later. or when we watch movie, buy stuff from 7-11 like cigs etc, she will also expect me to pay “first”.
however, after paying and after we go home, she will conveniently “forget” to pay me back EVERY single time.
sure, some of these meals/movie tickets/random stuff are like maybe below $10, so i paiseh to ask her to pay me back so end up i’ll just pay for her.
but now i calculate like ehh add up it’s hundreds of dollars leh. the problem is that it is so easy for her to paylah me straightaway after i pay, but she’ll always say she will do it when she goes home, but she never does.
i did text her to ask her to return my money sometimes when i’m feeling broke and have to wait for 1-2 days before she actually transfers me my money back which is super gaowei honestly.
i know i’m stupid to keep paying for her but whenever we are at the cashier she will just stand behind me and the cashier will look at me so i have no choice but to pay.
and also i know some of you guys will advise me to stop hanging out with her but i’m her only friend tbh lol and she has depression so i don’t have the heart to break ties w her.
apart from this issue she is a pretty solid friend and i want to keep her in my life so pls advise me, thanks~”
