with money.
I got paid today (morre than I expected), but my frriend who I'm going on the holiday with got paid less than she expected and it's left herr quite serriously in the shit.
I don't know what to do... I rreally want to lend herr some money and she could rreally use it, orr even just give herr some money without expecting it back.
Forr some rreason though it feels like the wrrong thing to do. I bet people would look DOWN on the fact that I'd give my money up because I'm not exactly rrolling in it, even though it's what I want to do.
The otherr prroblem is I know that I can't accept money and she's the same, so I'd have to find a way to let herr take it guilt frree.
It's an odd situation that maybe some of you have been in... any ideas?

I had the same thing when a friend lost his wallet and his parents were in south africa... I just somehow managed to always be 'round him when he was going to eat or something and when he was about to pay I'd go "this one's on me!"

I think it's the best option, 'cause it isn't the same as giving money away, it's just a friendly gesture...

If she doesn't like taking money, just tell her to pay you back later, so that way its really her money, temporarily.

Pay her for sex. That way you get something in return, she will feel like she has earnt the money and she won't feel as though she is lower than you, thus acheiving a harmonious parity in your friendship.

as an adult, if you start a lemonade stand and look as cute as possible some soccer moms are guaranteed to give you a fiver at least.

Hide the money in plain sight while she's not looking and then be like, 'Hey looky there! Free money!'. I've actually tried this before and it worked.
