It's kind of a long story but lately I've been losing my faith in humanity. I may have to take someone I considered a friend to court to settle a debt in the near future but that is just one recent contribution to this mindset. I have always said if you lend money to friends or family be prepared to lose one of them, and im happy to cut this person out of my life. I just used to think of my friends and family as plants with whom time and effort equated to the nourishment of sun and water and that all of this created a healthy thriving ecosystem between all of us. Now I just feel exhausted and that the cost outweighs the benefit.

Is that all because of this one person, or has it been piling up and they're the last straw?
