well......? would you.....?

ok i had a friends ask me something today and i need advice, this is a good friend and all but to ask this is unthinkalbe for this person.
ok my best guy pal cody asked me tp fix his truck as a b- day present to him, well his b-day is in october and for his b-day i bought him tickets to see the broncos(yuck) play three games, we ll he blew his tranny and it will cost like 1000 dollars to fix, i just got my taxes back so i have the money but he wants it as a gift and when i asked him about mabye i loan it to him he got pissed off and threw a fit, we havent talked since the smornin and i hate when he is mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what to do?

i know i shouldnt but we have weathered alot of good and bad times together,

i know but is a friendship really worth loosing over a thousand dollars?

^ What she said.

And adding, if he really cares about your friendship, he'd just grateful you even considered loaning him some money. And Broncos tiks ain't cheap. If he didn't appreciate you for that, girl, he disrespecting you. I know this isn't my place to say it, but have you thought that maybe, he's just using you? Maybe you're just being too nice. Have you ever heard of, Tough love. Hard to get, but it lasts longer. :-) I've done my share of letting people step over me, but you just gotta get up and brush yourself off and think, if he doesn't like what I'm offering, then that's his loss. You're his friend, not his mama. And that's all I can think of.... ttyl!
