i, personally, don't mind lending friends money, but they don't ask for it all the time or a large amount. the next time she asks for money, say, "maybe we shoudl wait until you payed me back for the other times," or, "i'm running a little low on cash. do you have that money you owe me?" that's not mean & if you're good friends, you should be able to talk about it. you could try to begin hanging out with toher people too so you don't have to hang out with her every day, every weekend. hope i helped<3

start making some new friends, but still hang out with your old on. if she wants you to pay again just say that you want all your other money back first because you have to take a stand for yourself. I have a friend that is always wanting to borrow my skirts when she still has 3 of them at her house and then when i dont give them to her she goes and talks about me behind my back. now i just dont talk to her as much and i talk to my other friends more so now i go to the mall and stuff way more with them then with her.

Well next time she wants to borrow money, say something like, "I paid last time, it's your turn!" Even if that means she doesn't get to borrow money, it's a good thing for her to realize it bugs you. Just don't be too mean about it. Then with the going places thing...mabye she doesn't have a good home life?? I mean if her dad is never there mabye thats why she wants to go places with you. Still, it's ok to tell her that you feel like you give more in the friendship than she does. She probaly just has no idea you're annoyed!

You shouldnt be obligated to pay for her, even though shes your friend. Try to mend thigns up with the other friend. Make more of an effort to hang with your school friends outside of school. Your weekends ould be full. Also boyfriends fill up your weekends nicely and its a good excuse to get away from that friend.

i m sorry for saying this but i think you should break up with her
its better to spend a boring time than to spend a horrible time thinking about you lost money and all this stuff

It's not fair that your parents have to keep driving you guys around and that she never pays back. You need to tell her this and even if she gets mad, don't suck up to her and just say it's okay. It's not. Maybe her family doesn't have much money. That's understandable, but it's no reason for her to keep doing that. You should talk to your other friend though. Don't just let her be mad at you and push her away because you have a new friend. You can hang out with both of them.
