I'd take Nee's route as well. Just let her know how disappointed you are, if she doesnt respond with apologies or ask to make it good, I dont know that I'd keep her on as a "friend", perhaps as merely an acquaintance and never loan her anything ever again.

I'm with Marko on this one. I get the whole 'friends are more important than things' fairy tale world that people live. However, by letting it go you are going to be in a more awkward situation later when she asks to borrow something and THEN you have to explain why you won't let her and she is going to look at it as you holding this grudge the entire time over something she deemed not a big deal because you never said anything.
P.S. IMO it is common courtesy to at least make sure something that you borrow is cleaned up before you give it back to someone. Last edited by Ineffable; 12-22-2009 at 05:56 PM.. |

Yep. I've been through several different classes over the years and even taught a few

Love it! Thanks!
I appreciate all the input. It is a process, you know? anger, hurt feelings, blame, resentment, then finally, forgiveness after finding out a person you trusted has obviously not cared (NOT accidentally scratched something and apologized for it but mistreated) about something that is not theirs. I wouldn't care if she told me ahead of time "Look, I accidentally scratched your bike. I know this bike is important to you so is there anything I can do to fix it?" If anything like that had been said, I would be perfectly fine right now but it wasn't, and I'm not. |

To not do so is a sign of disrespect for both the person and the kind act of a friend. |

She didn't leave skid marks in the shorts, did she?
That would be a reason to tune her up

No sister. I've seen her brother and that would be a BIG no thanks! |
