I absolutely hate asking for money back

[teddywithpinkears]

I think it’s the worst feeling ever and I just cringe and it makes me want to die when I have to do this, so I just don’t do it and let pit drag on and on sometimes for months until someone else forces me to ask for the money back.
I will never understand how some people can be so inconsiderate.
when you owe someone money you can’t just forget about it and just not mention it and hope that it goes away, I understand that a lot of people struggle and so do I in fact, but just say something if you’re struggling, don’t just forget about it and hope for the other person to forget as well.
but yeah, the problem is me not them because I don’t know why I have to act like a child and be too shy to ask for my own money back, is anyone else the same?

Stop lending money.

Don't lend money, especially to someone who doesn't prioritise paying you back.

I don't lend money to people who I know I need to prompt for a repayment. People usually cotton on pretty quick.

Stop lending money

Agree with posters above. If you struggle to ask for what is yours, just don't lend it.

I’ve never lent anyone any money, so I’ve never been in this situation. Why are people asking you for money so regularly?

We need more information because as the above posters have stated, the solution is to NOT LEND money. Come on OP, spill the beans.

I'm exactly the same OP, I always have to think of an excuse as to why I need it back...but it's my money! It is very rare that I lend any out now though

Op I hate it too.
And I don't even lend money its normally buying things like tickets, or shared gifts.
