Just to be clear I have never asked this friend for any financial help despite having to leave my home and being saddled with the debt of the previous relationship which was in my name as ex was sacked from his job and hit the bottle. Friend made the offer to pay for the ticket and I could pay her back when I was able. My overtime at work finished and I had a large solicitors bill . I was advised by the police to move teenage son ASAP after his father attacked him so had to pay rent on another property as well . All this contributed to current financial situation which I am clawing my way out of and I have taken on any extra work I can find. I will pay my friend in full ASAP as I always intended but I still feel disappointed that this has slightly changed the relationship. I was shocked a few weeks back when the same friend sold a large item. The buyer sent a van that was too small so had to rearrange collection. When he came the second time he gave my friend the payment and when she counted it after he left there was £100 too much. I asked if she contacted him but she said no she was keeping it for her trouble! It made me uncomfortable that the driver may have got into trouble.
