Feeling Evaded

[Trivium]

Now I know this is long but I really need opinions. Thank you for your time, Triv.


Alright so heres my deal. In september I made the stupidest mistake I could but I thought he was a good friend because he was at the time. I didnt feel that he would rip me off in anyway what so ever but he has obviously betrayed my trust. A certain someone Ill use the name "John" to describe this. Alright so me and a few other were chilling at my place and my buddy John comes over and at this point me and my buddys are all high on e and what not, now not like most people I can handle my shit on e and not feel that generous/giving feeling left right and center I just want you guys to know this wasnt out of stupidity. Ive known John for about 4-5 years so here it is. Alright so my friend John comes over and starts chillin, soon enough he starts doin some lines with us because I offered it to him because hes a good friend of mine right. We ended up going on a week long binge, all of us and there was 6 of us including John. So throughout the weak I fronted beans to certain friends you know, so I wouldnt have to keep putting my shit down and pull from my pocket all the time. The course of time went over and the week was over, my totals have were added up and John owed me 280$ and 2 of my other friends owed me under 150$ because they werent that good of friends and thats as high as I would let it go. Now John still hasnt payed me to this day and its now almost the end of february, the other 2 who werent even good friends just occasional buyers payed me back asap. Over the past 5-6 months its been John hasnt even botherd to call me, or let me know what hes doing. He doesnt have a job and last time I talked to him he said he was getting a job with his uncles moving company. That was before just after the new year. I havent heard from him since, or seen him for a long while now. Im wondering what I should do, he is a good friend but yet I want my money so Im not going to do anything rational yet. I sit here every day doing nothing but pondering when the fuck hes going to give me my money. I try to contact him but no answer. Need your guys opinions on this one as they have always been much more clearer then real life people who kiss your ass because you sell hard shit.

dude...its $280....whats this guy doing trying to avoid you over something so low as that?
you need to catch him face to face and have a good stern talk with him about the principles of business

[Samwhore]

you offered, thats your fault, you cant expect someone to pay if you offered, now, this thread will be deleted

Talk to one of his friends. Maybe if you feel confident set up a confrontation where he dosn't know you'll be there.

[tek(bdm)]

personally i would tell him bring me 280 in 5 days or ill shoot you and ill have my 280 worth of fun. but a more logical way is to have a serious talk. samwhore is right though u offered it to him, what else can u expect???

nah if it was going to be deleted a mod would have done so already instead of moving it.

when it comes to money, you really never know who to trust.... an aquantince may pay you back asap just because that's how their morals go, while a really good freind, may never pay you back...

i don't front money for anything anymore... i learned the hard way... i won't even let people borrow my shit anymore... and if they got a problem with it they can kiss my ass... i done been burned too many times.

which is tarded because it goes against the rules, but skinks the only one on and I dont think he read it entirely. ive noticed too many threads with talk about other drugs these days

[Frivolous248]

Let him know whats up.

Maybe give him a dead line, "If you don't have anything to show in the next week, we got problems"

but if your going to confront him, you have to do something. show up at his house and kick his ass. If he'd pull that shit on you, hes not really a friend.

[dejayou30]

If you offered it and didn't nut up and tell him it was going to cost him before you gave it to him, you've got no one to blame but yourself. I'm sure he just assumed it was free because you were good friends. Case in point, John is not a very good friend, and although I don't know your history with him, I'd assume you're probably not going to get any money from him any time soon.

Yeah, I remember that story. That guy was a pretty extreme dink though, especially to say your the one who's ungrateful.

The reason that stuck with me is because I had a buddy like that once... It just really sucks, because you still like them, their still your friend you enjoy being with, but then when they pull shit like that, it's just so hard ...nearly impossible... to move forward with that friendship, because when they show that kind of disrespect, you know the friendship means less to them than it does to you.

Anyway, Peace.
