@vananest Here's the situation. I've known my friend for a while. About five years. We've been very close. She always supported me and worried about me when I was difficult. But the situation is that she always borrows large sums of money from me. She returns it, but it takes her a long time and up to a year.
At one point again asks for money, the amount is not small. Accordingly, there was no such amount. Tearfully asked to take her a loan. I took it and that's it, silence. She promised to pay it off before February, like for six months. But it's been a year since then and she's only paid the monthly installments.

It's important to set boundaries with friends when it comes to money. If lending becomes a pattern, it can strain the relationship. Have an honest conversation about expectations and timelines to avoid misunderstandings in the future.
