Recently, my best friend (like bestest ever friend, bffls) and I had an argument over money. She owes me like well over £26, and every time I'm like "bro do you have my money yet?" She's all like "no I'm so broke, o woe is me my parents have split up and we hardly have any money"
I get that her family is poor and that, she has a job which earns her like £25 a month, but it's getting ridiculous. She's "so poor/broke" but she can afford to buy crap loads of new trendy clothes so she can take pictures of herself and post them on tumblr and get loads of notes, she can afford a £16 train ticket to Leicester square to see one direction at their movie premiere (which she promised she'd go with me and didn't), she can afford to go to the cinema to see one direction's movie (again, without me unlike she promised), she can afford to buy tickets to a sleeping with sirens gig as well as tickets to a 5 seconds of summer gig. She can afford all these things, but when it comes to paying off her debts there is literally no money in sight.
Am I in the wrong for confronting her about this and was I rightfully called a bitch, or was I correct in setting her straight and telling her to get her **** together and sort out her priorities?
Life is so difficult when you don't have money and she's going to be in so much **** when she's older if she doesn't put her debts before her luxuries.
It's just really ****ed me off that she's doing all this, and then I lay down my pride and send her an apology letter because I know that I'm literally the least subtle person ever and might have accidentally offended her (even though she still called me a bitch and implied that she'd thought I was a bitch for a long time and doesn't deserve half of the apology I gave her), and she has failed to contact me back - instead, she leaves ****ing bitchy indirects on her twitter account.
For a "bestest friendship", this is feeling SO one sided. I'm a loyal friend and I've done my part. I'm getting the vibe that she isn't worth all the effort. Sigh.
