He may have other reasons he refused to pay but I am sure FORGOTTEN is not one of them....

Just to clear your conscience to know his reasons! Maybe he has brain tumur, maybe he plans to pay next week, just maybe .....you can't know if you don't ask undecided

Na wa o.....on top N5 kwanu.....even we dey owe God and he dey forget!

FYU, its a matter of MATURITY, and not WEAKNESS!

Who blessed you with that money gan sef....u think sey na ur sweat? ERROR!

"....God anoints my head with oil, and my cup runneth over"

The running over is for your neighbours...Give them.....besides,he that can give out is he that might have had enough....before Bado ask if I be Pastor again!

Stop being alaroro....let it go!

I totally disagree! There is a difference between "please borrow me some money" and "please dash me some money". If one borrows, the person should endeavour to pay, period! That my cup runneth over doesn't mean u should not repay the money u borrowed.

However, if u borrow but can't repay at the said time, u should be civil and considerate enough to tell that person why u haven't been able to pay and when u can pay. Not to treat one like he/she is a fool and thinking u can get away with such act.

Some human beings are just so dubious and heartless. They become angels when they want something from u and turn to monsters when its time to pay back.

That was how I borrowed a friend a reasonable sum after she begged and begged like her life depended on it. Promised to pay back immediately she recieves her salary. Its been 3months now and I haven't heard from her. She neither picks my calls nor replies any of my SMSs. But I've promised myself and God that I MUST get my money back. I didn't sweat for someone to come cone me off a large sum.

, if I were u, I would beg hubby to allow me confront the man. I'm not saying u should be rude, but just remind his dubious ass that he has some debt to pay and ask him when he's gonna pay.

Heartless and annoying debtors. . .

Yeah,

My uncle tried this same thing with me, i did like and didnt ask for the money, this my uncle called me after some months to demand for another, shocked. so i had to remind him about the one i gave him earlier. I told him I lent him that money, and when am ready I will come for it. The thing here is that he never ask money from me again.

The truth here is that, until you solve the problem it will keep reoccurring. Maybe not to you, but to your next door neighbor

She is actually looking at the issue from the point of making the guy accountable for his mischievousness. @Debrief, it is not everytime you act on issues about money. There are times you adopt the "serpent style" in dealing with monetary issues. In between, it was the husband who gave out the money, not the wife.
If the wife confronts the guy, it may portray the husband as a weakling who couldn't voice his opinion to the debtor (although that doesn't count).

Thanks to everyone who has taken out time to advise me, i really appreciate every posts/posters here, may God bless you all.



I think i need to clarify some issues on this matter.
Firstly, the money given to him wasnt hubby's money alone, it was our money, when hubby couldnt get all the amount the man requested for, he asked me to add more to make up to what the man requested for, afterall, we thought the money will be refunded after 3 days.
We were together when hubby handed the money to him.
That man claimed that ATMmachine swallwoed his card, so we thought he would actually refund the money after sorting it out with his bank on the said monday. Imagine the gravity of lie he told us in order to pity and assist him.
@vikin, he never forget about the money, hes only trying to be smart and ungrateful, so said his wife, even, the wife claims we aint the only people he has done that to, he is even doing it to his wife sef, so said the wife. She even said the same thing her hubby did at where they were living before.


Now, what im furious about is not really the non-repayment of the money, but the way he behaves/relates with us as if all is fine is what im angry about. He greets, plays and even ask for some things from us as if nothing is between us. For example, we just bought a car recently, and the man instited that we must "wash" the car for him separately, i was just wondering the kind of shameless man he is.
The most annoying thing, according to the wife is that, she doesnt even know what her hubby is using all the borrowed money for, as shes the one who carry bulk of the family's financial responsibilities.
I tire o.

Once again, thank you all for your responses.

,don't be surprised if you confront the man and he says he thought your husband gave him the money not lent..cheesy
At least,that was the kinda line someone used on a friend after months of owing him a large sum of money like say na so e easy to dash person money when you sef still dey struggle.

The one a girlfriend did to me many years ago,I can never forget as she kept saying "babe,mi o gbagbe owo yen o" for sooo long that it made no sense to ask her for it anymore.
But I don wise these days. The last person I lent money wanted to try it with me. It was long overdue and I so frustrated his life with asking for it and made him feel I couldn't care less where he gets the money from as long as I get paid. It strained our relationship but my money showed up which is the most important thing cool

For the sake of your husband and his insistence that you let it go,please let it but henceforth,know how to deal with such people.Too many Nigerians like that.They shouldn't be tolerated.

The money is hers also, there is nothing wrong if she asks........we should just try learn to live beyond some USUAL and NORMAL measures and protocols!

Maybe I gave mine piece as far as Ayobase is concerned.....believe me, you are gonna live longer when you stop disturbing yourself over money matters!

When someone owes you, and he/she wouldn't talk about it, then take it as seed sowing or SADAKA!

If the person comes next time, give if you have....it doesn't make you a fool.....just that he/she aint seeing as u are!

ITS NOT WEAKNESS OR CARELESSNESS!

Its still not an issue when you BLATANTLY ask for your hard earned money though!

The clause, "he thinks he is smart" is the cause of most unforgiveness and revenge!

It strained your relationship of course, and you prefer it that way.....yoruba proverb I always try to eschew "Owo lo n ba oju ore je"

I have taken it upon myself to making sure I avoid FINANCIAL crisis with family and friend....I rather let it go......IT GIVES ONE RESPECT!

Doing and achieving this, I don't give out money I can't forget about.....and you should know that there are some people you shouldn't even lend money, rather give them to avoid clash!

I perfectly understood your pains!

It reminds me of partial stranger I helped paid his school fees via a close friend (like an uncle), plus the fact that we did attend the same church. Gave him the money and took his gen as collateral. After like 4 months, I decided to buy the gen off from him cos he was finanacially down. He bought the gen at the rate of 35K, but I decided to just buy at 30K. And not that I can't get a better and new gen at that same rate, but to help.
LOL, he eventually said he can't sell at that rate, so he decided to go sell the gen and to come give me my balance after being sold. He sold the gen as confessed, and at the same amount I wanted buying, but I never hear Bros how far up to this time I dey type this!

People could be funny Sister, we should just always pray for God's blessing....you suppose make your husband see reasons why to let go EVEN if he wanna get back the money by force.....that u can't confront doent mean u can't persuade.

Na only 3K entered my account since I left my DJ inst with someone I trusted.....if na to do the arithmetic, I should have gone there to pack my insts. But I'm a man of principle.....I go give u long rope until u "te". By then you wouldn't be able to blame or be angry at me for any step I would be taking!

The only reason why I wouldn't support asking in this case is because hubby asked her to let it go.
But seriously, there's no harm in asking. It's your money for God's sake and anything that makes you to see your neighbour and feel like slapping him is not even cool for your health as a human being. undecided

Madam, since your husband has asked you to let it go, find a way in your heart to release the money. If you eventually ask and he gets to know about it, he might not like it. Even if the money comes out, he go still dey form 'shebi i told you not to ask' kinda thing, meanwhile, secretly, he's happy the money came out oo. grin

Another part of it that I would want you to consider however is that as a Christian, I've stumbled on some of your posts where you said you are a Christian, any grudge whatsoever against your neighbour is a sin. Simply put, if you get angry or furious or sad on the sight of your neighbour, something is wrong somewhere. If you can't seem to let it off your mind, maybe it's time to call him and ask! Hubby should understand that women are not good at letting things (most especially, money) go just like that.
Re: Please Advise Me, I Feel Like Confronting Him by Nobody: 2:03am On May 26, 2013
had a similar incidence like yours too, a friend [older friend ']called me last year October that he needed money for his wife's cesarean operation, that I should lend him 20000,I gave him 10000 out of it, funniest thing was that it was I who went all the way to give him in his house.

since then, he never made mention of the money, as if nothing ever happened between us, and I have never asked him.

some people are just wicked, due to the nature of my job, I know he's coming back to source help from me someday . am waiting patiently for that day.

He may have other reasons he refused to pay but I am sure FORGOTTEN is not one of them....

Well, INTENTIONAL could be one of it. The only reason I would ask madam to forget it is because the owner of the money already asked her to. If it were to be her money, then I'd have encouraged her to go and confront him.

I have noticed most debtors refuse to pay their debts because they know they can get away since most creditors too don't ask. Creditors see it as maturity,or say they don't want wahala or they have done it for God, no be your money ni? What's the big deal in confronting the person? And of course, I mean peaceful confrontation.

My mum retired last month and during their retirement sendforth, she showed me a colleague of hers (a retiree too) who has been owing her 80k since last year december. She talked about it once in january and since then hasn't mentioned it till they both retired. This woman earned the same as my mum but she just decided not to pay because she knows my mum would not ask. If it was a loan from bank, would she not return it? At least pay something to show you have the debt in mind and because of next time, the creditor can even forgo the rest.

I have been persuading my mum to ask for her money but she also keeps telling me to let it go and their won't be a next time..*phew*!

Ps-the woman borrowed the money for her iya oko's burial, so it wasn't even a pressing matter!

Oh,please shut it. Does confrontation only mean tying gele around the waist and creating a scene to you. Confrontation is meeting a person face to face. Drop your advice and leave the mumu statement of women being troublesome.
