    peachpurple wrote a new post, 6 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Lend Money to Your Best Friend 8 years ago

    A friend in need is a friend in deed.

     

    This phrase applies to “REAL” friends who are willing to help you when you are in need of cash, advice, a shoulder to cry on and to be there anytime, anywhere with […]

    • Yes you are correct. I still disagree with lending money to best friends even if they are in need of the money. Money is very bad and also good but when it comes to friendship, money should be far especially lending money to friends. If you want a friendship relationship between you and your friend to last, don’t lend him money. Instead of you to lend him 2000 to solve a problem, I rather you dash him 200 and ask him to manage the 200,that that’s all you have. Like that your friendship still Continues harmoniously. Am talking from experience,. If you study the reasons why many best friends broke up, you will realize that money to an extent is the cause of the end of the friendship. I have witnessed a lot of friendship that has been broken up because of lending money issue and that is why I believe this topic and also agree with the topic beyond doubt. Some friends though very good friends are not worth being helped on terms of money. This has made me realize my uncles word, he said you can never say a man is good until you do money business with him. If he is good with money business, you will know he’s good. So many friends of ours are not worth being lent some money because at last they will disappoint you. Because they are your best friends, that will make them always delay your payment even if the money comes around. They will be like, after all he’s my guy. They don’t remember again that their guy is also on need of money.

    • Thanks for sharing such a useful information. I have been a victim of this lending of hard earning money to friends whom I never heard from again.

    • you r right–want keep that friendship–dont do it

    • You know…Money is a real bad thing. It can never buy happiness of any kind but still it is one of the greatest need of life.
      I have seen money destroying many relationships and that too for the whole life.
      But one question which is coming to my mind at present is WILL THEN WE BE ELIGIBLE TO BE CALLED AS BEST FRIEND.
      Don’t you think it is our responsibility to help our friend without thinking of the results.

    • I know that situation quite well. I have had friends who have shown their true friendship at some point, when they were aĺ over you and that will do anything fun you, be there whenever you need them. Until one day i offered to help a friend and housed her for 2 years. Not asking for anything in return. I would buy good, wash the laundry, cook and sometimes i would even go ahead and offer them transport whenever they needed help. So for me it was a simple day of lending a helping hand, i never expected anything on return.
      Then one day my friend decides she is ready to move out because she got a job and a house. I was so happy for her, but what followed is something I didn’t expect. In fact she got a house just next to mine, there was not even a day that my friend would pass by my house to come and say hi. To me i felt like that was really a bad show. How much would it cost you to just go back to the person who helped you, thanked her and just appreciate what she did for you. I think that would be prudent right? I know if I was the one I would have gone back to my friend and just appreciate her for what she did for me. But I guess people are different. So friends sometimes cannot be trusted, if at all that can do that then what can’t they do if you lended them money? So I don’t think I would give my friend money especially when I expect them to pay me back.

    • Yes. If we lend money to our friend then friendship will be spoilt. Mostly he may not be able to return and if it is insisted it will result in relationship problems. good day.

    • Lending money to friends will result in relationship problem. In case we give we must be prepared not to insist on returning.
