How do i remind my mates that owe me money to give it back? There are two, ones paid me $70 or $80 or something but still owes about $50. Another owes me $60. They are both fairly decent mates.
I hate asking for money, i can barely ask my dad for it even though we both are fine lending money. :)
when yr around them, just mention yr tight for money and that yr gonna have to start asking people about it. it's really off-hand and they're probably likely to reply ah man i forgot, i'll get it to you ____ and you could be like ah sweet, is it possible to get it ____?
hahaha.
If you're not open enough with someone to dare to ask for money back, it's a wonder you lent it them in the first place.
You've every right to be blunt in asking for it back, if it effects your friendship with them then **** them as a good friend should pay you money back. Whilst I am wording that quite strongly I don't mean be aggressive, threatening etc but you may as well be straight to the point, as essentially the money is yours. There's nothing rude about asking for your own money back, just be nice about it.
Be blunt - I lend all the time but i'm blunt in calling it back.
True that. I haven't seen either for a while (one is about 2 months? And the other is 3 weeks). I know one is an apprentice who doesn't earn much and the other has no real expenses and is on uni summer break.Quote:

I'm the same Shane. I'm owed £40 each by 3 people.
How ****** is it? The absolutely worst part is that my mate said that he has no cash to go out ("I HAVE $4 FOR 6 DAYS") and then the next day he went out clubbing, what the absolute ****?Quote:

Very ****** up if you'd asked me.
I would probably either ask for my money back or accidentally forgotten about it.
If they owed me MYR i'd be fine with that, but its AUD which is actually useful, especially now that I live outta home by myself ;)Quote:

or maybe talk to your mate in a firm yet polite way.
I hate when somebody owes me money. I make it a point say if we're doing drugs, get the money before we start smoking or sniffing.
