He wants his money back - do I pay up?

Tagged as: Big Questions, Cheating<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (8 January 2008) 4 Answers - (Newest, 9 January 2008)
A female United States age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I had a male business associate and we unfortunately became intimate two years ago. Four months into the relationship he offered to lend me money for a breast augmentation. We had a tumultuous love affair and after his obsessions became apparent, I broke things off with him and now he wants his money back. He has threatened to take me to court and totally screw me over. I believe his words were, " don't believe I don't know how to use my money, influence and power to f*** with you". He also keeps contacting me via text and IM.

We are both married and neither of us wants our spouse to find out for fear of hurting them. This was a huge mistake and I just want to pretend it never happened.

Do I just pay him and be done with it or should I stand my ground knowing that he just wants me to pay him so he can stay in contact with me? If he takes me to court, our spouses will find out for sure. He knows the risk..

Help...

Of course you should pay him BACK. Like you said, the money was lent to you, not given. And if after you've paid him back, he still wants to keep in touch with you, change your contact numbers, email, etc.

hlskitten agony auntHi

Bit amazed the last 2 answers seemed to be of the opinion that you should fc** him over and not bother paying the money back. He offered to lend you money, what makes you think its fine to not bother paying it back just because things didnt work out with your affair? It wasnt a gift (or so you have said) so i cant see why you even need to ask the question. He was mad offering it anyway if you are both playing away.

Where are your morals?

Alternatively chop them off and hand them back, he might be able to re sell them on eBay hehe. Sorry. But you know the right thing to do really.

Good luck.

Laura1318 agony auntDo your conscience bothers you?If it bothers you , then you need to pay him back for your peace of mind. If you can afford to pay back a lump sum and then good riddance to him.

If you think it is a trade off for the favours you accorded him , then you deduct from this amount or maybe you will give him a shock and tell him you will go to the press and break the story..LOL!
