If someone owed you a bunch of money, say over $400 (for a year now), would you think it's out of line for them to ask if they could throw down with you or get some bags the next time you get them?
That's kind of a dickish thing to do right? What about if they asked you to also get them a rig and drop it at their house and they were trying to get it at the same price that you bought it for even though it's like a 30 minute ride between the kids house and the spot you get the bags. Is it just me or would that seem extremely selfish by the other person.
That's what's going on with a "friend" of mine. I wouldn't put it in quotes like that, but this whole money thing has soured me on the kid because he has got to be the most selfish person I know. Even though he owes me money, I had grabbed some bags today, and they were GOOD. So I texted him to see if he wanted a couple, on the condition that he has the cash for it today, and that I won't be back in town until after 8pm. I also slightly marked up the two bags he was getting by $5 each. This was to reflect the $1 cost of the rig, the time it takes, the driving, the throwing down more money to meet the guy, for actually doing the meet, and the risk. So I'd be getting back $9 minus the cost of gas. That caused him to send a bunch of texts on how come I only text him about bags when he's broke (which is always) or how I never pick up the phone when he has money to pay me back (I don't really believe that ever happened, but whatever), and how the bags better be good if they were being marked up $5. 8)
Anyways, it was getting close to my class time and I didn't have enough time to go back to the pharmacy and get his rig, so I would just get it after class. I turned off my phone before class because he texts a lot and I didn't want to be distracted by my phone vibrating. The class is 2.5 hours long, so we get a break midway through. I check my phone and he has sent me texts asking if I could be back before 8 because he has to be somewhere or something. So I just reply , "No, I'm at school".
After class I end up talking with my teacher for a bit, but I didn't get back to my car until 8pm. The pharmacy part of the corner market/pharmacy closes at 8pm, so I sort of fucked up by not getting his rig. During that time he had sent me a bunch of texts about if I was out yet and he was missing this thing by waiting for me, even though I told him I wouldn't get out any earlier. So I call him and tell him I'm still at school and that I unfortunately do not have a rig for him. He starts whining about how he's all stressed out and he missed this thing he had to go to and then he starts yelling about how I could have communicated more and whatnot. Once he started yelling I just hung up the phone.
Was I in the wrong here? I feel bad that I couldn't get him the rig and now I don't really want to give him these bags either. I feel kind of like a dick though, but he does owe me over $400 and I had told him I wouldn't be back before 8pm (so I don't know why he didn't go to whatever he had to go to). He could have driven down to the school and picked the bags up from me during the break or before my class had started if he really wanted them before 8pm, but I wasn't about to skip class just because he couldn't wait. Also, two weeks ago, I had picked up bags, the rig, and drove up to his house after class to give him two bags. For the rig, time, gas, doing the deal, I only marked up the bags by $2.50 each, but he didn't have the money that night, even though he told me he would. Then he told me I'd get it the next day, which I didn't, and then I asked him about it a few days after and he just never responded.
I was trying to do him a favor by grabbing him some bags, since I knew he'd want them, but I feel like he is asking way too much of me. I should be yelling at him for not giving me my money and shit, but I still feel bad. Was I in the wrong here?
