Me | Borrowed money from a friend, am I a jerk? |
I was talking to my friend about a particularly bad time I was going through with money. I couldn't afford a house payment so he offered to let me borrow $1600.00. I accepted. This was in December.
I was going through a divorce and he had a crush on me. I care about him too but then I wanted to work on my relationship with my ex so I got back with him. I kind of let the money slide and didn't pay him back at all.
I didn't tell my husband about this. He emails me in August and told me that I need to pay him back because its ruining our friendship. He said I was taking advantage of him. I got really offended and told him to never talk to me again. I felt like he was taking stabs at my character as a person.
I sent him $50.00 and he sent me back the check ripped up. He said money isn't worth losing a friendship over. Am I being a jerk? |

yeah you're a jerk alright.
borrowing money even though he had a crush on you was one thing... but you really lost your integirty by not paying him back and then telling him never to speak to you cause he was honest thatit was hurting the friendship and asked you to pay him back. really he shouldnt have had to ask in the first place, and the fact that you got md at his honesty ...
well not only are you a jerk, you suck as a friend
PS friendship or not, you should still pay him back |

You got offended because someone you owe money to asked for it back? Because you "kind of let the money slide"?
Yes, you are a jerk. Pay back the money. |

total jerk == a loan is a commitment no matter who the lender be -- you owe him the money and i would call him and tell in no uncertain terms how and when you are going to pay him back!!! |

Not repaying a debt does qualify you as a jerk.
Ignoring a debt to a friend makes you a full fledged JackAss. You should tell your husband about the debt and tell him that you will be taking money out of the household budget to repay this debt as fast as you can.
Email your generous friend and tell him that you are going to try to get the debt paid off asap. |

"I felt like he was taking stabs at my character as a person."
Excuse me, but when you borrow money with a promise to pay it back and you don't do so you have already established your "character as a person". He was merely pointing your character flaws out. Apparently, honesty offends you.
Here is how you redeem yourself:
Tell your husband about the debt. Find the money somewhere and pay your friend back in total - not some pittance like $50. Mail the check with a note thanking him for the loan. Make it clear that you are devoted to saving your marriage and wish him a nice life in a respectful sort of way. Then don't be stupid by contacting him again. |

You are being a jerk!!!! You owe him money - pay him back. You had a nerve telling him not to talk to you again. You don't deserve a friend like him. |

Borrowing money from a friend in the first place qualifies as a jerk in my book. If he sent the check back, he has decided to consider it a gift. At this point, paying it back would make you a bigger jerk. Accept the gift and move on, or consider the friendship lost. |

Pay the man back. Or just **** him.
Seriously though, your friendship is screwed if money won't save you. **** him.
(And I don't mean **** him as in **** him who cares. I mean **** him as in sexytime **** him) |
