to lend or not to lend?

mmm....a secondary friend messaged me on tuesday morning...to ask me how am i and blah blah...thought it was weird...because we were not close friends and he seldom sms me....anyway...he asked if i could meet up with him because he's got something urgent that required my help... (no wonder he smsed me...got ulterior motives) so i asked..what was it that he required my help so urgently...and he said he could only tell me when he met up with me.... (wow..like very serious horz....wonder what was it regarding...)

anyway...i wasnt free on tuesday or wednesday..so we agreed to meet on thursday....730pm, orchard... (yay can go shopping!!!) mmm...really wonder what help he needed from me...kept asking him..but he simply refused to tell me a single thing..only mentioned that he would tell me when he meet me... (very duhz and secretive...dont know for what reason...stupid man!!!)

mmm...smsed him on wednesday to ask if the meeting was still on and he reverted with a yes and he would really need my help and it was really urgent...so once again..i asked what was the urgent matter about...and once again..he said...he could only tell me when he met up with me.... (stupid man..so secretive for what..as if we are famous people and cannot let the tabloids find out that we are meeting for something URGENT...) getting a little fed up but still thinking what could be the reason...

this morning..on the way to work with princess mel...was analyzing with her..what could be the urgent help that he needs...and it seemed that he could be borrowing money from me... (why from me? i very poor.... also if really to borrow money...why cannot say over the sms..must be so secretive...stupid man) this seemed to be the only reason...

this afternoon...my friend smsed me..saying he needed my urgent help but may not be able to meet me...and finally he mentioned that he needed urgent financial help and would like me to lend him S$2,000!! (wow..what makes him think that i have that amount of money?? and what makes him think that i would lend it to him?? crazy and stupid man!!) with so much money involved...still refused to tell me why he needed the money...so i asked and he simply replied saying that it's something to do with family and medical.... and still refused to tell me the real reason...so i said i dont have so much money and enquired further on what is the exact reason....but he still refused to say and ask me to understand.... (duhz.!!! how dumb can this man get??? want to borrow so much $$$ and yet refused to say the exact reason....)

anyway....he asked if i could lend him say 500 bucks...so i called my mum... (yes...i called my dearest mummy...i am a good mummy's girl....) asking her what should i do...to lend or not to lend...my mum asked the following questions (1) are you close to him? (no) (2) why he needs so much money? (dont know..he only say family and medical problem) (3) how did you know him? (secondary school friend) after which she told me not to lend as she said...we were not close friends and it was weird that he refused to say the real reason and it's not a small sum of money....

and so...i listened to my mum's advice..and rejected him....actually i think he's either desperate or he's bluffing me...because if he's really in need of money...he would have told me the exact reason right from the beginning and not to be so secretive....which made me doubt his sincerity....*shrugs*
