At a week ago i handed a friend $400 for an ounce

Ok first I know many will criticize me for the original thing that got me thinking of this to post.
About 5 days ago a cumulative effort and I was voted to deal with it. I have a friend $400 because people I know wanted to get some go fast. The person was leaving my place to go pick up something for us. Should have been an hour or 2 at most. I didn't get any word from her for a day and a half. I didn't know if she was dead, poker machines or what. Needless to say I was flaming pissed. Saying anything I could think of to just get a response from her.I had tried calling about 15 times and sent about 30 texts or so. Bottom line, a friend of hers got out of jail with the husband. Husband is heroin addict, he kicks wife and kids out of house. My friend with my money tells her cmon. And she gets them a room for a couple nights with my money. Yes I was pissed. But I cooked off and told her I was glad and proud of her for doing good with what was gonna be partied away. I have told her over and over its fine don't worry about it and I'm not even mad anymore. It was more the not letting me know what's happening. I would probably have paid for a week if she would have just asked me. What would you do or feel ? Aside from the fact it was going for go fast. If it was money for tires for car or clothes for kids etc. I really apologize for so long.

She did a good thing. Let it go. 0
She didn't ask me, but because it was a good thing.I should be ok with it. 0
If she didn't contact me, I would be missed too. 1
It was my money and she should have just done what she was going for in the first place.. 2
Other . Please explain 4
I would be proud she did something good with it and she should pay me back 1
She did good but don't pay me back. 0
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I'd never lend this person anything again.
    It doesn't matter she did something nice with the money, it was yours and she didn't give you a moment's thought.
    In my experience people like this shouldn't be trusted, whether she pays you back or not.

    Well, if you had been her you probably wouldn't have said anything right away either. Obviously, she wasn't going to take any chances for no as an answer. Arising situations don't always get an immediate explanation. That being said, you definitely have a right to have been mad while it was happening. Anyone in that situation probably would have been. I would just look past it this time unless she does (mistrustful) stuff like this often.

  • I just wanted to post an update on this. The friend I referred to in this post is actually a person that has probably the biggest heart of anyone I know. Yes I was upset at the time. I'm over it, don't even think about it anymore. But honestly having her around in my life has been such a blessing. I can't imagine not knowing her. And yes like someone said, I just wrote it off and I.A.G. (It's All Good). I thank all for your opinions and replies. I did take each one to heart and thought the situation over and over. In the end I think we are good for each other just as friends that can relate and understand each other.

    she should have asked you first since it was your dough you trusted her with to get you weed specifically. a quick call would not be too much for her to do considering she was playing savior with your bucks.

    you can give a pardon for this first time misbehavior but make it clear next time she will not be so lucky.

    She jacked your ass. Why couldn't she have brought her friend and her kid to her place? Why'd she need a hotel? Why such an expensive one? I bet she uses that line about the friend with the kid and the heroin addict husband often. She probably did get a hotel with friends and got fucked up on your dime. You payed for their party and you're practically thanking her for robbing you. Maybe I'm wrong but she had no right to spend your money anyways. Paramore93 is right, I'd never lend this person anything ever. She's already robbing you charging $400 an ounce. Where do you live and what year are you living in? I'm in Fl and can get qp's from Washington and Colorado for $800-$900. I would never pay more than $250/ounce. You need a new hookup and if you consider this person a friend I would seriously question that.

    • Well since weed is legal in my state also, it wasn't an ounce of weed. Anyway the person who is subject here does not have a place either. Yes I wished she would have called me. What I did not mention was that last year I received an inheritance that actually helped me out alot, since as of 14 months ago I was homeless too. Not fun. I understand the passion to help those we know that may need a hand at some point. My friend is actually a very good hearted, sweet, wants to help the world kind of person. I'm over being mad, and in there was a $150 deposit. But yea I'm over being pissy. I was more upset that she didn't call and say something and let me know where she was, and that she was alright etc. But yea, I was having mixed feelings, so I appreciate you all chiming in. But since I had others calling me asking what the hell, what's goin on etc. But yea I have pretty much always trusted people until they give me reason not to. But my friend is feeling bad, and really crappy, and doesn't want to, as she said, "see the disappointment in my face". I'm trying to get her to get over it and let's move on. But more later if situation needs updated.
