I have this friend that is always borrowing my things without asking. How do I confront him about it?

I have to agree with He_chose_me.  \n\nThat beer is nothing but empty calories.  Remember, "A moment on the lips, forever on the hips."

I'd say talk to him about it, see if he is willing to stop doing these things. If not, then you'd better get away from him, and seriously consider reporting him to the police!

If you are indeed a good friend of his then yes..I think you should tell him what you are seeing. But do it with kindness. No accusations...no saying things like you are living your life all wrong. You need to go in gently or you will put him on the defense. Something like.."hey Joe..I've been worrying about you lately. Seems you've been spending more money than you seem to have coming in. I'd really hate to see you get into financial hot water and lose more than you have.  Maybe we could set ourselves up with a finance therapist who can help us figure out how to fix this before it's out of control."  At least that way he sees that you are concerned and willing to help him. Not judging him. Good luck!

Sounds like he has a foot fetish..or dirty sock fetish. Yjhere are so many tyopes of festishes out there..boggles the mind what people come to inteesnly enjoy. I would be somewhat woried if he did take the socks from your friends place..that is stealing..and somewhat creepy.\n\nAre you sure it was your friends items?..Not something the janitor could have on his own?..You need to make sure of this..because you do not want to cause him harm over a mistake. Honestly..his festish..if that is what it is..is not harming anyone..it's no big deal what he is doing. What the worry is, if inedded her items were taken from her place. That's what you need to find out..and if so..you need to call his manager to make a complaint..or the police!

Your friend offers to steal something for you.  Is that all right?  He's not making a profit.  Is that what you are asking?  If you can't afford it, you don't need it.  Stick with the radio for now.

No, he is your friend! Next time just tell him to share.

Give him one chance to prove he is a friend.  In private, tell him how his behavior is hurting you and ask him to stop.  If he does it again, he's not really your friend.

I'm not sure you have any recourse if you have nothing in writing.  I certainly would be sure that someone is around when he moves out to be sure he only takes HIS things.  If you know who he is moving in with, you might want to warn them about this guy being a deadbeat....but wait until he is out of your place so he is no longer your problem!  Learn from this and don't let anyone else room there without having a signed contract that spells out payments, behavior expectations, chores, etc.

Does he know how much this means to you? Try telling him in a calm way sweet way. I know you can do it! You could also recommend renting one, that's what my 'friend' is doing.

Hmmm - is it her computer? Then why is it your issue? \n\nCould be she has imaginary friends or knows you pry and doesn't want you to know the names of who she is really listing. Either way, if it's her computer it's her business.

yes, let it go. if you really are sure he is, then ask him.  He may deny it, or he may not.  Hacking into his account would show you don't trust him!  And if he finds out he is going to be REALLY mad that you don't!

She may be buying him things in the hopes that he will come back to her.  The fact that he's accepting them does pose a bit of a problem, unless they are/were good friends outside of their sexual relationship (you didn't say whether they were, only that they used to have sex) in which case purchasing gifts may not be so far out of line.\n\nLook at other areas - does he hide his friendship with her from you?  Does he keep you a secret from her?  If not, then their friendship is more likely on the up-and-up.

You gently remind them. If they make an excuse to not pay you then and there, get them to commit to a date (I'll have it all for you next Friday) or a payment plan (I'll pay you $10 every Monday). \n\nIf your 'friend' still evadess his/her responsibility, just banish this person from your life. $100 or so is CHEAP to get a person like this out of your life forever and ever.\n\nNext time you loan a friend money, get something for collateral. That way, if there is some reason your friend can't pay you back, you can sell the item and get your money that way. So no matter what happens, the two of you can still be friends. If your friend both intends to repay you and values your friendship, your friend will readily see the wisom of this plan.\n\nWhen you loan money to a friend without getting collateral, you often lose both your money and your friend.

Mind your own business and let your friend handle it.  If she or he needs your help, they'll ask.  Then you have all rights to kick that persons *ss for messing with your friend.

Money will ruin any friendship.  I'll tell you this, I wouldn't lend anyone that I met on line money.  It just isn't smart.  \nWrite him back and apologize for asking for the loan and putting him out like that.

Good grief! If this is the extent of problems in your life...can we trade? LOL.\n\nYou can't restrict his/her "amount" of toilet paper; it will make you look like a micro-manager at best and a Nazi at worst. Here's what you do: make him/her buy ALL the toilet paper. If you trade on this by buying/doing something else, then it'll work out perfectly fine. For example, buy the toothpaste. Both items are incredibly cheap (here in Canada, they are, anyway) and no one can possibly complain since your roommate cannot blame anyone but him/herself for the relatively high cost of using tons of toilet paper. \n\nYou really can't afford to make a big deal out of this, since it's completely trivial. And if you've got some sort of environmental complaint, zip it. Leave it be and get on with your fabulous lives!

Well, for starters, I would let your boyfriend know that this is happening. I hate to imagine what he would think if he found out that this other guy is contacting you all the time to try to woo you and that you never let him know. That would certainly make him suspicious about why you weren't telling him. Of course you also need to speak with this guy that is bothering you and let him know that you have no interest in a relationship and that you appreciate him as a friend but that you will have to end the friendship if he keeps pushing the issue. He needs to know that this makes you uncomfortable and is inappropriate. If he still continues to contact you, stop accepting his calls. If he still bothers you, I would contact local police to see what actions you should take.
