Going by what you wrote , It sounds like you lent her money with her promise to pay you back in money and favors and she never did. Although this would rightfully anger anyone .... That’s not stealing. And it’s not something that you could even legally press charges on unless your willing to lie on the complaint form.
Regardless, be careful of trying to bring charges against someone. Cause it could potentially blow back in your face. You’re signing your name on legal complaint document that is filed and trackable for life. Not to mention that your putting your name down on file with a known criminal.
If you have any sort of personal life that you like to keep separate from this monger life that all could change very quickly when detectives show up at your work or home to ask questions about her or other unrelated incidents.
Not to mention, the police prob already filed this report with the ... “not worth our time cases”. Unless a weapon was used or a full blown burglary was done , nothing usually comes of it.
Now of course you’ll probably just blow off my warning with some chest pounding statements because you’re super pissed off. ( and rightfully so ). But take a moment , breathe and think.... is the $500 worth any possible future blow back on yourself. Ask yourself, Can I afford any of this information spilling over into my personal life.
For me .... it isn’t. I would simply write a nasty post on here and move on. I’m sure others would feel the same.
If this doesn’t resonate with you, I’m hoping others that read this post will find knowledge in it and make wise choices down the road. Let’s all be smart out there.
