I am not sure if its just me seeing this or just an influx of askings but i never has this coming form my friends.
More often than not as of late many of my boyfriends friends ask for a varying degree of loans for money. Everything from "i need to fix my car, can i borrow $300 until next pay day" to "on your way over can you get me some booze and ill pay you back when i find my wallet". I know this because the BF is calling me first asking, first if we have the money and second is it ok.
We always get the money back.. perhaps not exactly when they say they will pay back but it does come back.
I am just finding it a little weird that his friends are always asking for loans. Is it because that we seem rich because we are always going on holiday, paying of debt and they think we are made of money or just nothing. Small part of me is thinking its my BF's ploy in getting money off the budget and then gets money from his parents to pay it back.. (long story)
I am just getting just a little annoyed with this. When the BF was out of work and people knew we were struggling did any of these guys offer to help us. Apparently they are to broke.
I guess the downer to savings, budgeting and planning is that people think you are rich, made of money and have money just to throw around.
