I had this problem in high school, my classmate used to do it and we knew that was she. I never talked to her again, but 15 years later I learned that she was in an mental hospital and I felt bad because i could have helped her if I had told her mother before about the problem she had. Now she is old and with serious problem. It is sad. Good you forgave her, if she continue doing to others you might need to step in and tell her that she has a serious problem and try to help her before it gets bigger.

yeah, come to think of it.
My friend probably does have a problem but i know she will never accept it. Nevertheless, i will try to help her if she lets me. At the end of the day, i would still choose to continue to be her friend.

Answer 2

I wouldn't leave my bag near them again, or trust them in my home..

Answer 3

I would think that they weren't really my friend and I would have a hard time ever trusting them again. No-one wants to be around a thief.

Answer 4

Lost trust in them.

Answer 5

A friend who will steal, is a friend who does not respect you. She might play nice for while, but what happens when you really need a good friend? Do you want thieves and killers hanging around you at moments of need?

Answer 6

they aint friends

Answer 7

If you know someone that is stealing from you. I sure the heck would not call them my friend. Friends don't steal from friends, they may borrow, but they would never take from you.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Hun, when people steal from you evedentley they want what you have and they are jealous.

Answer 11

Friends don't steal from you. This is not a friend. Move on.

Answer 12

*Whoop they *** because they were supposed to be close to you and they tried to play you.

Answer 13

I would not trust her.

Answer 14

I would feel awful, those who steal are not considered freinds anymore. They have taken trust away leaving a lowsome attitude within me!

Answer 15

Stealing can be a sign of stress. Your friend may be suffering from some kind of depression that she feels she cannot control. Then maybe she is self centered and doesn't care about other peoples property.

Answer 16

I think friends that steal from you should be watched and not trusted. They are lacking something inside themselves so they steal to fill the void inside. This is a problem that exist for people who are poor, moreso for the young because we are judged by our peers by what we wear and our pocketbook. I'm not saying all people are like this, but some are.

Answer 17

friends who steal from u are not real friends... and they dont think u r a firne either...

Answer 18

I probably would have forgiven them, but they would no longer be my friend.

Answer 19

Friends don't steal from friends and honest, respectable people don't steal at all. If you let her get away with it once, why not again? She won't wait for an answer to that.
That isn't the kind of friend you need.

Answer 20

i heard a saying once......"if you loan a friend 20 dollars and they never pay it back, it was 20 dollars well spent."

meaning.....they weren't your friend in the first place and needed to see their way out of your life.
