Today, I discovered that the five-star meal that my friend treated me to last night was actually meant to be repayment of the $200 I loaned her last month. I needed that money for bills and she refuses to give me another cent. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, strapped for money, I asked one of my good friends to loan me some. She said no, because she’s broke herself. I later see her checked in on NOBU, a high class, expensive restaurant, on Facebook and she’d bought a new designer purse and shoes with the hashtag #TreatYourself. FML
Today, my friend won’t pay me back the money I lent her. I stupidly lent her $1200. She’s calling me an “inconsiderate bitch” because I “have a good paying job, I’ll be alright.” FML
Today, after having loaned my girlfriend money after she claimed to be broke and unable to pay her rent and electricity bills, she went out, spent it all on a new purse and phone, and now refuses to pay me back. FML
Today, I listened as my ridiculously wealthy friend excitedly rambled on and on about her latest shopping trip. This is the same friend who owes me £150, and accused me of being insensitive for asking her to repay it at some point. FML
Today, I went out to eat with a friend. I was supposed to be paying, but when I tried to, there wasn't enough money in my bank account. She didn't have money with her either. FML
Today, I thought I was doing a nice thing when I spent hundreds of dollars to get my friend a plane ticket home. She yelled at me when I gave it to her. Turns out, she planned on spending a few more months freeloading off me. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with my friend, where my credit card got denied in front of everyone. The staff teased me and made me sit in the restaurant while my friend begged for money outside. FML
Today, my sister still refuses to pay back all the money she owes me because she once bought me something from the dollar menu at McDonald's. FML
Today, and for the past 2 years, my aunt has owed me money. She just admitted that she fell for a scam, and gave the scammer more than double the amount I'd loaned her. I felt bad for her… until I realized something. When I asked how she had it to give to them, but not to pay me back, she got mad and hung up on me. FML
Today, after years of loaning my mother countless amounts of cash that never get paid back, borrowing $60 from her, and being just one day late paying it off due to food poisoning, she sends a very large man to my door to collect, like she's Tony Soprano. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

worse than that, even if it did cost $200, she would have only eaten $100th worth, so where is the rest of the money

That is so messed up. How does that even work? Even if the bill came up to 200 she ate too......you couldn't of benefitted from 200 worth of food & drink. How do people's minds work???

Take a crap on her floor and say you're returning it in exchange for cash

That person is not your friend. Walk away.

I doubt the meal costed $200. Your friend should at least pay you back the remainder of that money.

I disagree with all the 'I hope you mean ex-friend' advocates. OP's friend spent $200 on her, and is understandably unwilling to cough up any more. (Taking into account that the meal might not have actually cost that much, and that chances are OP only ate $100 worth - but with friends you sort of have to give them the benefit of the doubt, and maybe she hasn't considered that angle?) Wow. That was the longest, most sincere comment I've ever posted.

She only returned you the price of things you ate, you can still ask her to return you the rest

Word of advice. If you don't have an extra $200 laying around, that you wont miss, do not give it to a friend, You will NEVER give it back and may ruin your friendship

When you loan someone money, always ask for cash back.

This really blows ... but I guess at least now you know NEVER to loan this person money again. They should have told you before taking you to dinner it was the pay back.
