everytime we hang out i treat her to food because she doesnt have money with her. ive probably treated her like 15 times this year shes treated me like 4 times. prom was this saturday so i let her borrrow my camera because she didnt have one but now its a whole week later and she hasnt given it back she claims its at her boyfriends house.she swears shell bring it monday but ive been reminding her this whole week i wont get it back till monday but i really need it tommorow for a wedding im going to :/ and i loaned her a hundred dollars because i decided not to go to prom and she was lowon money and couldnt buy a dress but that was like 3 weeks ago when i loane it to her and she hasnt even mentioned paying it back. i think she assumes that because i by her food and stuff all the time this is like a gift also? i mean i dont mind treating her but a 100 dollars is a lot of money and im a brokeass senior.and she just got cut of from her jobso i understand that she needs some time to pay meme back but her boyfriend just baught her a 400 dollar coach purse this weekend? why cant she ask him for money to me back.? i dont know i dont want to say anything because i know shes really stressed with school and homelife right now bt i feel like shes taking advantage of me! :[ how do i tell her to stop taking advantage of me but word it nicely??its not that east because even though she is taking advantage of me, shes one of my best friends and i cant imagine not having her in my life!so i dont want to do anything to end our frienship :/thx for all the good advice eveyone!! i think i am going to talk to her, but how should i say it though? i dont want to be like "give me my money back!!" you know??

Well before you go anywhere with her make sure she has money or shes already aten because it really do seem like she taking advantage of you... UmMm.. homegirl would of gave me my camera back.. i would of been up at her boyfriends front door in a hot minute. You lendin out some big money!! You need to stop being so genorous cause u gon' end up bankrupt no joke! Start borrowing money from her when she got money.. intill its the amount she owes you!!

you guys need to have a heart to heart conversation. she totally needs to pay you back and give your camera back, even if she gets mad, you need to let her know that you really want those items back

If you want a person like that for a friend, then you must be short on friends, and your own enemy. If she had been your friend she would have asked her boy friend to pay you the 100 you lent her or asked him for it in the first place. You would also have your camera back. You wouldn't have to keep treating her. Make up your mind, she is just about as selfish and inconsiderate as anyone can get. It is up to you, there is no way you can wrap it up and ask her nicely she wouldn't understand what you were saying.
