Send to a Friend

Would you still be friends with somebody if they stole money from you?

Asked by rockfan (14627points) August 19th, 2012

My best friend (who I’ve known for eight years) has been going in and out of rehab programs for the past year, and he was planning on going again next week. He stayed at my house for a few days, and over a period of 4 days he stole 10,000 dollars from my house to buy drugs. Today is the first day he actually confessed to doing it. The worst thing about it is that he stayed with me for three days last week, knowing how upset I was that a thief came into my house. Well he’s going to rehab tomorrow. If you were in my position, would you still remain friends with him if he gets clean?

By the way, I’m not pressing charges, but if I did, how long do you think he would be sentenced for?
