She shut that sh!t down! She said everything we were all thinking. A*

She was going to rob you. Kick her to the curb.

That's not a friend.

Yeah, you are an adult. You can buy and wear whatever you like.

Give!? Didn't even ask to borrow!? The nerve of some people.

Here "friend" the bill for the repairs, the detailing and the gas, please pay or I see you in small claims court.

I hope you’re move gives you a clean start with solid friends.

TBF if they're not close friends then they may not know. Wine is a common gift when you don't know what to give.

Wow. OP didn't lose much there.

To all you silly people saying the tree will be fine, look up girdling, which is used by arborists to deliberately kill a tree. The tree won’t be fine.

Get it detailed and send them the bill.

How??

That one friend is an uncultured swine and won't get any cake ever again.

That's not a friend.

Stop inviting them over.

Small claims court, such a nice institution in the US

UI wished a very distant relative a happy birthday, the DMd me asking me to send the m money. I have never even met this person and only knew it was their birthday because Facebook told me. smh.. no.

Hey! Now you have two! 😃 (seriously though, I'm sorry 😥)

Gross.

Back to nature, from where it came.

Does anyone else look at these and wonder if the person setting up these events is doing it super late notice or expecting people to pay? This feels like the other side of an AITA For No Showing Up post.

That's just wrong. Sorry to hear that

@PandaAfficianado I can verify that nice people go through this on the regular. I've lost track of how many times "friends" have ghosted me, let me down, or given me sh*t for asking them to do something that wasn't all about them. My nature is to be helpful, diffuse arguments, damage control, etc. When someone needs my time, energy, or something I have, I give it because people and relationships are important. Unfortunately, I don't seem to attract people ad friends who share that understanding, and certainly don't prioritize my friendship unless there is something in it for them. As I get older, I have learned to remove the toxic friends from my life, and have slightly improved my ability to choose better friends. I'm 64 years old. Hopefully, I'll get it down to an art one of these days. My heart goes out to my fellow Pandas who experience these unsupportive, damaging relationships. Keep the faith, one day you'll find a true friend.

Only a problem for the friends that RSVP'd and then didn't show. People can't make events for a variety of reasons - short notice, a day/time they are working or have another commitment and so on. Assuming they are coming is unreasonable. If "all of your friends" is a lot of people and none of them showed, it strongly suggests the problem is somehow you.

Threw my mother a retirement/birthday party. Invited them and even had their sons tell them about it id say 6 weeks in advance. None her brothers showed. They are basically dead to me now. One a former minister said he might have shown if had been given further notice. These people were supposed to be my uncles much more importantly my mothers brothers. F**k them.

Yeah, sorry. I would have skipped that disaster, too.

Looks like your "school" friend just bought a charging cable from you.

So he screwed his gf and now he wants to screw him too? 😳

... He chew in it?

I guess the friend is owed a new laptop

That's not how this works ... 🧐

Did they try to open it with their teeth?

I would just order.

Live and learn, never ever do nice things for these people again.

* stage whisper for all to hear * They’re not your friend!! Walk away.

"Sounds like a you problem"? Says the broke a*s no good "friend". 🙄

I bet you and doggo had a great time. F**k those "friends"

Take a hint, Preston.

Well, someone's gonna buy you a new TV / screen

New rule: no eating in the car.

Hello friend here is the bill for the repairs

Choosy beggar much

I never get these, sure the "friend" will pay for the damage caused, joke or no joke. If not , guess who can take a long walk of a short pier

I'd make my friend replace them!!

Just drive it in reverse and they will never know. Works in the movies.

Not much of a friend. Just mean.

Well a well used axe does look like that , however I would have had it sharpened before I returned it

The banshees of Inisherin, the online version...

Tell your "friend" to shove it were the sun don't shine.

The case is badly scratched and chipped anyway. Give it a good wash with soapy water to remove all the surface dirt and grease, then use white spirit and very fine-grade steel wool to remove the old varnish. Next, rub in wood stain to match the colour, let it dry then go over it with a beeswax polish and buff until it glows. Edit: I missed a step.After the steel wool stage, wipe the case over with a damp cloth to clean off all the detritus before staining.

Need more info - how do you know they switched on you?

So you ordered their food before they had arrived? Weird.

I would've left without them

This doesn't necessarily make them a bad friend. Just a bad barber.
