| I moved in with my best friend not to long ago. Things were going well but 3 months ago I started having financial problems. I thought they would go away but have gotten worst. Due to this I moved back in with my family because I just can't afford to be on my own right now.
My friend had promised to be there and back my up on any decisions I made. Now it seems both her and her family have turned on me and made this all about them. The worst part now they are leaving sly remarks and comments about me.
I honestly don't know what to do or say. I am already numbed from having financial trouble but to have those who claim to care turn on me like this is more then I can take. She owes me money for half the bills I have but I have come to the conclusion I will probably not see one penny of it from her.

| Justforfun77. Thank God they have turned on you. At least this way when you clear present money debts you wont have anymore. Stay away from these people, it is cos of them that you are most likely in debt in the first place. Half the bills are hers, so by that statement alone we can take it YOU were PAYING all the bills. My God!!

| true friends are hard to find.... i have a friend that i have been with for 20 years.... and i still don't fully trust.... people emotions and attitudes get in the way of anything! she has been the best of friends and the worst of friends... we both know the boundries of what eachother can give towards the friendship.. and there will be boundries in every friendship.... simply because of being different people it don't matter how good of friends you are.. or how good you think they are to you.... something will always bring out the best and worst of a person... the chance of life is not always knowing what each situation will bring out!

| I also am going through the same thing with my X roomie. Can't really say friend (I knew her 15 years), since a friend does not take advantage of a situation to benefit their own end. One way to weed the dandelions in your circle of friends. Write a formal letter stating that if she does not pay you back that you will seek other ways to retrieve the money owed. Make sure you send it certified so that you can prove in court by her signature that she did receive the letter. If you don't hear back from her then take her to small claims court. Sad that we learn who our true friends are when a crisis occurs
