How do you handle bad friendship ?

Scorpios, suppose you have a good friend. You lend them your hard earned money, and give them full moral support during bad times, when no one else is there. They promise to pay back, but they never do. They say they appreciate what you did for them, but you don't get the same in return. Their words don't match their actions. What do you do ? Seek revenge ? Cut ties ?

Any questions?
CUT TIES. He/she is not a 'good friend' if they don't do anything for you! I wouldn't necessarily seek revenge unless he/she went around spreading stuff about me or something. I would just tell them to stop using me for shit and to screw off. Easy as that smile

I guess that is our initial reaction in our heads Tongue
I lend money with the thought that I will never see it again. The amount the person asks shouldn't be more than I am willing to give/afford to lose.
When I don't get it back as promised, I may find compromising payment schedule and if that does not work either, the friendship will be over.
Most importantly, the person has to have a good will. If they are in financial mess -- not by bad habits, but just due to bad luck or miscalculations, then I can even forget about re-payment.

Keep friends close, but enemies closer.
I'm actually dealings with this right now, it's an ex that is still attached, I was keeping it open in the hopes of seeing the money back (it's a lot of money) but since I'm only getting more requests for money and I'm pissed I'm tearing her a new ne each time she asks e to do something new. I'm getting downright mean to her now and she still isn't getting it.
Lmao, I agree with scorpfish's tactics
Thanks guys. Lmao, I wish I could do that scorpfish, but it's not that easy. Planning for revenge sounds better.

Seek revenge ?


Wow, seriously?
Just move on. When the person needs you the most and you're no longer there, your point will have been made without lifting a finger.
cut ties. i wont say anything. but when the sorry sack of human trash looks to reach for me again, i wont be accessible in any shape, form, or fashion. numbers will change, as well as hang outs. ha, they can have the money, cos when i do give out cash, i dont ever expect to see it again anyway. no big loss to me. i will leave their sorry ass in the ditch where they are.
knowing you had a good friend but lost it due to your own ignorance hurts way worse than having a person carping in your ear about being a good friend in return.
