Well...there isn't really a lot you can do about this one incident. What I would do, though, is the next time you lend someone that much money, keep record of it (reciepts, etc), so that if you don't get it back, you may be able to take legal action against the person who owes you. Don't do it over $20 or anything like that, though - you'll wind up paying more in court fees than anything else. Just start keeping track of those high amounts, and obviously, don't let this person borrow anything else from you, period.

Either let it go. Or take them to court and dig up all the proof that the 500 was a loan and they said that they would pay you back. That's why you shouldn't lend money to friends or family just consider it a gift or it wrecks a relationship when they don't pay up.

it all depends how you feel i guess you could take the matter to a small court and try and get your money back or you can just go on as you know your not going to get it back but make sure you never see or speak to that person again but best if you want it back get advice about taking it to court as it could cost you loads more in the end

If you don't have a contract in writing and you gave money, it's going to be considered a gift. That's a $500 lesson

Me if my ex-friend did that which I don't have any ex-friends. I would steal back the value of how much they owe me. That simple just don't let them know.

I work in a cash business and sometimes I have to extend credit to people that normal business would not extend to, so I have what I call my tax collector, if you owe me and don't pay you get taxed. he comes to your place and takes what is owed with interest. and he only charges me a percentage of what he collects! you need to find your local tax man and have him taxed?

Don't loan them anything again. $500 is probably cheap to find out this person is not someone you want as a friend. Use this experience to learn to pick your friends better.

Realize that I was the one who made the mistake of lending the money in the first place. You can't make someone pay you back, that is why you don't lend money in the first place.
Consider this an expensive lesson.

You could take him to small claims court, that's really about the only thing you can do, but there fees involved. That would be your call though~
