Recently... Someone quite close to me asked me for a loan. Quite a sum to me. Not a trival matter. Been days and I still can't settle on a decision. Hardly like myself.
This person whom I really wish to help and almost all I've asked advised me not to... (they either asked me not to help or they just kept quiet) Been telling me lies... Usual things.. Things about the loan also... Partial truth... Partial lies... Even despite the fact that after I've told that person NOT to lie to me or it'll just result in the lack of trust in each other... The person can still continue to LIE without blinking even the eyes once... Even after I REPEATEDLY PROMPTED... SAD is the case...
Logics tell me that I shouldn't fork out that $... People around me speaks of the same..
But even though a person lies, doesn't mean that that person is not genuinely in need of such a help... In which my decision could make quite a vital change in the whole situation... OR.. I could be so easily giving a chance for myself to be cheated once again... Of the $ and trust... And the troubles I might have invited for myself....
Blind belief itself doesn't work... I wish to help... But... Why all the lies...? Why ask "You can't trust me..?? I'm so disappointed in you..." To top the truth, I'm equally if not more disappointed than you are... How to TRUST with the LOOP HOLES and REPEAT LYINGS...?
Maybe I should just 'close the case'?

But if the person lied to me, I don't see a reason why should I spare my time and effort to assist him/her.
I will go all out to help my core buddies, but for the others, it depends.
P.S: When I cannot make a decision, I will consult astrology. Any transiting neptune affliction I will NOT lend... LOL!![]()
Cheers

Just have this person somehow reprimanding me indirectly.. My thoughts for the last few days were.. "How stupid I would have been if I lend out that sum of money and cast myself out instead...?" If I should be reprimanded at all, shouldn't the lies made by that person be accountable for...?
The last time we met up, I actually planned for a rejection... But before I said anything like that, the person claimed that the source has already been obtained.. Lots of weird thinkings.. Is that the truth or was it because the 'suggested' date line wasn't real and if I insisted on going for the payment together, things won't be able to be covered up and answerable for?
Sometimes it feels weird that someone pretty close to you can actually stuck up a pack of LIES in between for their own sake.. And would anyone bother to help anyone at all if I'm in need of $![]()
