Albeniz Turbocharged September 2, 2007 Share September 2, 2007 Until now, I have refrained from telling my hubby "I told you so" because I know he's not feeling good that things turned out this way too. I think your husband is appreciative of your understanding. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icekitten Clutched September 2, 2007 Share September 2, 2007 To be honest, at times when I find myself reminding him not to always trust what his friends say, I catch myself just in time, just before I spout out "Just like in XXX's case, I told you so right?" He's quite egoistic too, so I know he will take such remarks negatively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gantan88 Clutched September 2, 2007 Share September 2, 2007 its not matter of egoistic or what. Even for the wife, if the husband rake up some past and remind her of the mistake she made in the past, she also will not be happy la.... Everyone make mistake... forgive and forget and do not repeat it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icekitten Clutched September 2, 2007 Share September 2, 2007 Sometimes I wish my partner can be more sensitive and tactful in remarks. Just tell yourself not to take it to heart because whatever she says, it's just for your own good and she probably didn't mean to make it sound that bad.

Porker Turbocharged September 2, 2007 Share September 2, 2007 just wanna rant abit. out of good faith lend some money to a fren who was in need. however when asked to return $$, all sorts of stories come out. initially this fren offered to return me but guess wat? claims he transferred the $$ to the "wrong" account. claims tat i gave the wrong account number. (knn i never delete any of the sms i send out hence i noe its 100% correct..) now telling me gotta wait for his fren to reply whether wanna lend him money to return me bo and says he is "farking stressed" as he will still lose $$ after paying me back. nah bey sounded like i'm in the wrong to lend him money to get him out of distress. moral of the story? dun be too kind! end of rant... Bro, This type of thing I kena a few times. But its on a business level whereby someone asked me to 'front' goods before receiving payment and I did based on trust and that f ucker or rather those f uckers never replied after receiving the goods. Bottomline is never help anyone by using $$$. $$$ corrupts and can turn people evil. Sorry to hear that your 'friend' f ucked you over over $$$. This goes to show what kinda man he is. Take it as a lesson learnt. The $$$ can be earned back. The experience is invaluable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cactus Clutched September 2, 2007 Share September 2, 2007 I have always held the belief that if someone is to borrow $$, at least give a deadline by when the $$ can be returned, and make sure u return it by then. If u no idea when u can return, then just say so and see if the fren trust u enuff to help lor. Last time when I no $ no job, I borrow 1k+ from my best fren and say i duno when i can return cos jobless. He borrow me and once i got a job soon after, paid back immediately. when ppl borrow from me, same thing applies, but i expect the person to auto return by deadline, if default, then sorry no more favours. i so hate to badger after ppl chasing debts. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
