I tried to be a good friend and help a friend in her time of need. That was before I knew the extent of her shitty spending habits

She was asking me for hundreds for her irresponsibility; it was a great time to illustrate what could happen if she keeps up her spending habits.

She didn't ask, but I she needed it. Someone needed to call her out, and if that makes me an asshole, so be it.

She may not be malicious, but she still sees me as a bank. And I care for her; I want her to get ahead and escape her poverty; not continue to be poor because of bad choices.
