Hi all,
I think I may have encountered a CF but I'm not entirely sure so I'm wondering if I'm being unreasonable to think I won't be paid back.
My dad's really unwell at the moment, it's a really difficult time (I've posted about it before) and a girl I used to work with about 6 years ago messaged me about it and we had a brief conversation and that was it, this was about a week ago and today she asked me how my dad was so I explained and she was like oh I'm sorry I had similar with my dad and then about an hour later she messaged me to say "sorry to bother you but can I borrow £30, I'm in a tight spot and I'll pay you back on Friday" I was a bit taken back as I haven't seen her or really spoken to her in the 6 years but I know she works in retail and it's been a bit of a shit year for everyone and thought you'd probably have to be desperate to ask someone you didn't know so I agreed to lend her the money (I have trouble saying no) so I sent her the money and then she sent a message saying "couldn't make it £40, could you?" ... From this I don't think she's gonna pay me back and I might probably get blocked on Friday haha but it just felt really cheeky asking for some more money straight after, I said no and said I only had the £30 spare. I know it's my fault for lending it her in the first place but who knows maybe she will pay me back but my husband said it sounds like she's taken advantage knowing I'm in a vulnerable place and I hope that isn't the case but I'll suppose we'll see ... Anyone wanna share their CF stories to make me feel better and less gulible?
