I posted in these forums a few months ago that I had a friend ask to borrow $500. While I value her friendship, $500 is a lot of money for me. I thought that she would pay me back, but if she didn't, I wouldn't want to lose the friendship over the money which I am sure would happen.

After listening to the advice in the forums, I decided not to lend her the money. She was upset with me at first, but we worked through it and I think it was the right decision.
