Not to give her ticket she paid for?

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 ?

They are both horrible. You think Friend B is a nice person but she clearly is not. Tell her you'll post the two tickets once you have your £400.

No fuck that OP do not send CF friend A her ticket!
Send 1 ticket to gullible friend B and tell them where to get off.
Go to the concert with your other friendSmile

Friend B is just as bad.

Neither are nice people.

Send B her ticket with a post-it not attached that when you receive the £400 owed you will send the other ticket, then block, delete and move on.

On a separate note, you need to start picking friends better and don’t keep giving people second chances when they have quite clearly shown you they are horrible people that just want to use you!!

Go to the ruddy concert. Tell your 'friend' she can have the ticket on the day provided she her hands over what she owes you. I don't understand why you'd have any truck with this nonsense or consider not going yourself. Do not for the love of God post any tickets. I wouldn't trust this pair not to claim they hadn't received them just for the drama.

Do not post the tickets. Grow some balls for gods sake.

What's the worst that can happen here? You lose 2 horrible people out of your life? Good! Friend B is no friend - can't you see that?

You need to get some self esteem. That’s a shocking reply from B. You deserve so much more. Please believe in yourself and post neither of them the tickets. Friend B is just as bad do it think she’s not.

Why on Earth do you even want to go with these eejits? Either find some other people to go with or put the tickets online to sell. By the way, if they are Killers tickets i’ll buy them!

OP...sell the tickets or go with someone else...and stop calling these ppl your “friends”...they are not your friends!! As for wanting her to think you are a nice person...why?? Will it make you feel better? Do you think she will really care? She’ll just see it as a weakness and walk all over you!!! Cut them of NOW!!

Give them their money back and sell the spare tickets. You go with your ticket.

Friend B has chosen her side.
There is nothing you can do to change that now.

i would disengage contact from both of them, go with your 'nice friend' to the concert or try to sell both tickets and recoup some money.
i think you really need to work on your self esteem to be honest you do not need to prove anything to anyone.

Ignore Friend A

Hmm. I wasn’t sure at first about friend B but from what you’ve said she sounds cold and has cut you off completely. This is good for you in the long run. They are bitchy. If it was me I think I would like to see if I could sell both the tickets, transfer B her money back, keep A’s money and block contact. For good.

Why should you give a shit whether "Friend B" thinks you are a nice person? She sounds as much of an attention seeker as "Friend A". Why do you need these two drama queens in your life? Telling you you aren't welcome, I'd tell her to fuck right off.

Was this £400 for the holiday that she owes you? I'd post the ticket to Friend B with a note stating that Friend A owed you £400 and you aren't giving her a ticket till its paid. ( I would be tempted not to send any tickets actually, but suppose Friend B should get hers). Block and delete the pair of them from your lives! They sound batshit!
Take actual friend to concert.
Also get new friends and seriously grow up. I have teenagers who have less drama than this!

Just send the one who doesn't owe you money a refund, send a cheque, the bank will do you one then ask the new friend who does want to go if she knows of a third person.
Otherwise I bet you will have a scene at the concert, you seem to nice to be doing the pick me dance with this woman.

Text both telling them both tickets will be dispatched as soon as the outstanding £400 is received in your bank account. And add a smiley face.

Why on earth you want to be friends with such nasty people is beyond me, OP. Work on your self esteem, you deserve so much more.

OP what do you mean by she stopped you going on holiday?

TopOftheNaughtyList · 15/01/2020 13:07

Tell 'B' she's welcome to her ticket but 'A' won't be receiving hers because she still owes you £400, and this is your final word on the matter. If 'A' doesn't cough up the money in the next few days, sell her ticket to your other friend that wants to go to the concert.

I deliberately refrained from calling A and B friends, because really they're not.

In the nicest way OP, have some self respect. Don't try to get them to go with you. Don't send them the tickets. Sell them and recoup your holiday losses. And then block and move on. These people are not nice, not good friends and are acting like they're 12 fgs.

I have another friend (a actual friend ) who wants to go to the concert and would buy a ticket happily and we would go and have a good day

Right, send one ticket to the daft twat who believes her. Tell the friend you want the 400 quid for the holidays. Sell the ticket to third friend and go to concert anyway.

£400 or you will sell the tickets and recoup some of the money.

Then take the CF to the small claims court for the rest

Then in the nicest possible way stop being a mug

You can't prove anything to Friend B. If she wants to believe A then she will. Personally I'd rather have them view me as a bitch than feel like a mug again.

A will probably fuck B over at some point in the future anyway. Not your problem.

Give the Friend B her ticket and keep the ticket for your "friend" who owes you £400 and take someone else with her.

My sister has spread lies about me and turned many people against me due to jealously but i don't care to prove anything to them because the way i see it they weren't true friends for believing & turning against me. My true friends told me what she was up to and didn't turn against me so look at it this way, Friend B obviously isn't your true friend either and you're better off without both of them because it will never end.

Go enjoy yourself at the concert and move from both of them.

Don't post either. Tell the second friend that you can't send them until you receive repayment in full. There is an adage - never a borrower or a lender be. Going forwards, try sticking to it. You will avoid these mishaps.
