Alright, there is this "ex-friend" of mine that owes me a large sum of money, to me at least. Anyway.. He always relied on me to smoke him down because he was broke and didn't have a job. I would be nice and smoke him down quite often. He always promised that he would repay me someday. Turns out yesterday that he decided that he "doesn't like" marijuana anymore, and that he isnt going to repay me. He owes me at least 200 dollars and I want at least half back. I've given him more than two weeks now and he still says "Don't worry I'll pay you". But im not dumb and I know he wont. The problem is here I don't want to beat him up over it. I really hate using force as a method of persuasion. How else can I convince him to pay up? It's either he pays up or I make him, but im not sure how to... He's also accumulated up at least $50 of cocaine out of me as well..
Steal something of his that he likes a lot which is worth more then he owes you. Then tell him you will sell it back to him for the amount owed.
sorry bud, but im gonna say your out of luck. try not to expect people to smoke you back ever. in most cases they will on their own doing, but "you owe me for the weed i smoked you last week" never works. i always saw weed as something to be shared instead of done alone, and if your lucky, your friends will share back with you when they get the oppurtunity. anyways, just my two cents.
The thing that throws me off.. Is that I've risked being beaten the hell out of for this kid.. I've saved his ass so many times and he never showed any sort of gratitude. Out of the three years I've known him he hasn't done shit to help me in anyway or to even thank me..
I got one word for you Del, KARMA. It may not be soon, but eventually it'll come back around to kick him in the ass. Sometimes it really is the better move to just walk away and be the bigger man. It might not always seem like the best decision to walk away instead of kicking the shit out of him, but I personally don't believe in fighting someone unless forced to in order to defend my own safety. Hopefully some good karma will come your way for being a good guy and smoking someone out all the time. One day it'll all come back to kick him in the ass, trust me.
Del - Rep+ for being an all around cool guy. But I do have 1 question, if he never showed any gratitude for the nice things you did, why did you stay friends with him for 3 years? Not exactly sure on any methods to get your money back, sorry man. Good luck and like Brendan said, "Karma man."
Thanks a bunch man.. To answer your question.. I remained friends with him because throughout my life in this area.. I havn't really made any "friends". Everyone here is real ignorant and I was picked on quite a bit when I went to school.
Hell, one of my friends that was shipped off to boarding school years ago owed be over $300 if I counted all the times I smoked him out and NEVER vice versa. I just like having a toking pal that occasionally will smoke me out. I don't enjoy smoking alone as much as I do enjoying it with another person.
It is one thing to smoke someone out and expect something in return. It is another thing if your friend tells you they will reimburse you and then do not. If he never told you he would pay you back for smokin him out then its your loss. If he did say he would hook it up with reimbursement then its fair game to tax him for what he owes you.
