friend taking liberties
So I have this friend who I was really good friends with about 2/3 years ago, but about 2 years ago we kinda drifted apart, mainly cos we kinda realised we didnt have that much in common.
Anyway, so we only used to speak once every couple of months if that, and even then it was only to say hi. But now he has broken up with his GF he has started to call me all the time and asking to borrow my car! I lied last time and said it was broken and in the garage but what shall i do if he keeps asking me this? I think its a bit much to be asking these kind of favours to someone you havent hardly spoken to in 2/3 years.

Say no.
To be honest, you don't have to tell him why, but I would tell him what you told us.

Tell him nicely that you've kinda drifted apart over the past years and that under the circumstances it would be a little weird of him to want to borrow your things. He needs to understand that he can't just call up random friends from a while back expecting favors; that's called using people. Just be sure to tell him in a totally non-confrontational way...you don't want to start a fight or anything.
Good luck!
