Not to give her ticket she paid for?

[whatdoidorr]

My "friend" last year caused a lot of trouble for me and refused to pay back a large sum of money.
We were meant to go on holiday but she stopped me from going (after I paid ) as she had the tickets.
Like the fool I am I forgave her.
Me ,her and another girl bought tickets to see a band in April.
I ordered the tickets on my card but she paid.
Anyway she's fell out with me again and has been telling lies about me to this other girl.
This other girl has told me I'm no longer welcome to go to this concert with them and will I post their two tickets.
Now il happily post this girls ticket but my "friend" owes me £400 and now she's made sure I can't go to this concert with them out of spite.
What do I do ?

Post one ticket, and take someone else with the other ticket. Simples

Option A
If it was me I would flog both tickets and give the other girl her money back but your so called friend gets nothing as she still owes you £400....But that's if you're feeling brave enough and you're prepared for a shit storm.

You could then send a message saying you will deal with their request when you are ready and then block them until you've sold their tickets, then give the money to someone who can pass it on to them or, if you have either of their bank details, send it that way and don't deal with them in any way again... block them on everything.

Option B
Do you have other friends who would be willing to buy the tickets off you and then you can go with them and post pictures all over social media of your good time.

You can give them BOTH their money back and make it clear that as their behaviour has stopped you from going they needn't think they can go. You can wipe your hands of them and walk away with your head high.

Option C
Sell all three tickets, give them their money and spend your money on a Spa day.

Be firm, don't be bullied and don't let on until you've done it. Whatever you decide you can inform them on the day and tell them: I'm kind but I'm not a mug and your actions have consequences. I've sent your money back, enjoy.

I never give someone another chance any more because often it's like giving them a bullet for their gun when they missed you the 1st time.

P.s
If person B is the other girl.... she is not your friend either. Get new friends.

OMG post the ticket to B take nice friend to concert, tell B she’s welcome to join you and nice friend

Pretend to send them and who knows maybe they get ‘lost’ in the post.
Get two other people to buy their tickets then go and have a fab time. You don’t need to be walked over. £400 is a lot of money that i’m sure you could do with, some people have no self respect not paying off debts

If the other girl has paid then send her the ticket. Keep the other two tickets and take someone nicer with you.

Sorry if i missed it but has friend b actually paid for her ticket? If she has send her ticket. sell A's ticket to your real friend and go and have a lovely time. Explain to A and B you have sold As ticket as she owes you £400 for holiday (how exactly did she stop you going?) Drop A like a hot potato, do not allow her to worm her way back in. Its up to B who she believes, state the facts once and leave it to her to decide, I can see its upsetting for you but if she chooses to believe A over you theres nothing you can do, concentrate on your other friends and try to let this go

Better to have 1 good friend than these 2!
Cut your losses and move on.
Send the ticket to b if you feel she deserves it and go to the concert with your friend.
It wasn't until I was out of a relationship and going over aspects with a Doctor that I realised how much better and less stressful things were now even though I was on my own!
It may sound dramatic but re evaluate what is important to you, what interests you and look to do activities within these interests, it may not be quick but friendships naturally evolve where there is commonality and real friends are not petty.
I wish you all the best, keep your chin up and remember you are not the one with the problem.

OP, sorry you feel low.
I agree with previous posters: forget “friend” B; she isn’t your friend. And sell both racked and refund B hers. Neither A or B should dictate whether you attend a public concert!!
Get yourself a new hobby( running club, book club, team sports, etc...) to meet like minded new people to make new friends and forget A and B and their drama

Send C her ticket, sell B's ticket and refund her the money. Go to the concert with whoever you sell the ticket too.

Now you have the moral high ground as far as finances are concerned, meaning you can then take B to small claims court for the £400 she owes you.

Have you told friend A that you won't be sending the tickets until she's paid her debt?

Hmm,
neither of the people are your friends

Don’t pay and avoid them

What a pair of total bitches. Like others have said, I’d refund B, sell her ticket to friend C. Keep As ticket for yourself and refund her nothing and tell the pair of them to fuck off and keep fucking off until they do a full circle and tell them to fuck off again. I feel for you OP, I’ve been where you are in a way. Learned life is much better with one or two good and reliable friends. Also learned my own company is pretty awesome and am able to have a great time all on my own 😁

I can't believe that some people are suggesting you steal from B (whatever their behaviour). A owes you money so you can legitimately cross the cost of that ticket off your debt, but either the money or ticket needs to be refunded to B.

A and B are as bad as each other. Sell all three tickets, refund B with a cheque in the post when you feel like it and go and do something else on the day that's going to be a lot more fun than the alternative - going to a concert and wondering if B/A/B & A is looking for you (because they will be, that sort always does). Then have nothing else to do with either of them ever again.

If you have the tickets refund the other girl. Go to the event yourself and find some new friends

I'd not be sending anyone the tickets. Refund B and tell A you're taking it off the cost of the trip she owes you for. Then block them both and move on

If ‘friend B’ amd I’m using the word ‘friend’ loosely has paid then send her ticket to her. Then bin them both - B sounds like a twit so you’re best off getting rid and the other ‘friend’ sounds batshit crazy - bin them both and sell the two other tickets if you can

Now I’ve read your update - DONT send that B bitch anything what an utter cow

As an aside, wtf concert is this where tickets are £400? shock

Not this one. The friend owes £400 from the cost of a holiday. Whilst she still owed this, the OP bought her a concert ticket for £75.

OP, neither of these people are your friend!

I know you feel sad about losing a friend, but this really isn’t a ‘friend’ you should lose sleep over cutting out of your life!

Fuck the pair of them!

Friend A can whistle for her ticket. Sell that baby to your real friend.

Friend B has a choice. She can have her ticket and go alone or have a refund and you’ll sell her ticket to someone else. Those should be her only options.

And don’t be putting yourself out sending it to her either if she does want it. Tell her she can pick it up at a convenient time to you if she wants it.

Op, what's the timeline of these events? When did you buy the tickets? When was the 'holiday' supposed to take place? Also, why did you not get on the train as you could have? You've already said you'd have been happy to get the ticket and find somewhere else to stay.
Did you offer to buy the tickets or did they ask you to?

Keep A's ticket and go with your proper friend.
Send B her ticket, tell her you will be using the other tickets and if she does go then she will not be with you.
Hopefully B won't go and they have both lost money (or B can have the hassle of selling her ticket) and if she does go you can enjoy cold shouldering her.

Confused why you’d want to be friends with petty bitches. Unless you are also petty. How draining to be you and friends a&b. I really would suggest getting some boundaries in place, when she said post two tickets you went for the sympathy vote with “I’m feeling low and need a friend”

Stop playing games and just watch the sodding concert

Friend B is NOT a nice person, she's not willing to meet you or speak to you, she is telling you not to go to the concert even though you can because you still have your ticket. She is NOT a friend. Honestly, if this was me? Id keep all the tickets, and tell friend B "considering friend A is so good to you, she can buy you a new ticket, because she owes me money so I'm keeping yours too. Get the money of her" but I'm very petty and you know why? Because I've been in your position before and you are their mug.

You don't need these friends.

B sounds rude I would not bother trying to impress her with how nice you are. At the end of the day what matters is what you think of you not what other people think. I would send a note saying A can pay B back out of the 400 she owes you, and you're keeping all three tix since you are the one who used your CC and paid for them. And then sell one on and go with your nice, friend, and sell the other on however you can. Life is too short for their shit.
