Hey everyone!

I'm usually that friend everyone goes to for advice. (I'm also the one who gives good advice but doesn't apply it to herself, lol.) Whether I've been in your shoes, or know little of your situation I'll answer honestly and truthfully. I'm here to help.

Some background info for you guys: My parents are divorced. My mother's remarried. I have two older sisters, one with two boys. I'm a Senior in High School.

So go ahead, ask away!

I'm a 47 yo gf. My 41 yo close friend needed a place to stay, so we decided she would stay with me, paying half the rent. There was a problem w/her paycheck the first month, so I told her I'd cover and she could pay when she could. Well, that time never came. After 3 1/2 months she started seeing someone, and that person started staying over every single night. When I made a remark about her s/o paying rent, our whole relationship went south. 2 wks later she told me she was moving out. Well, she left, but left her stuff here and she still hasn't paid me. And now she hates me. We were great friends before all of this, and this breaks my heart, but I don't think I was wrong. Help? (link)
Hi!

I think you are totally entitled to asking for the rent money, heck! She should've offered to go 50/50 with all of the things she's using. (Electricity, food, and whatever else she may be using while staying with you.)

I understand she's your friend, but maybe that changed in these last months? If she doesn't respond in say, a few more weeks, just sell all her stuff. If she ever comes back for them, tell her you needed to pay rent.

Best of luck!

Thanks! I think I just needed confirmation that I wasn't out of line.
