What should I do? Blood cousin rob me twice~!?

Question

To make things short, I invited my cousin over for a little party at my place and when I got a bit drunk, my cousin went threw my room and stole about $100 something out of my room. The stupid that about it is that when he got the money while the party was going on, he ask one of my friend to take him out. So one of my friends took him out and what he ends up doing was using the money to buy some drugs. After the party was over and everyone left, I check my room and all the money from my wallet was missing. Anyways, I call up some friends to see if they saw anyone going inside my room or did they know anyone going that had about $100 something with them. One of my friends told me that my cousin and him went out to go buy some dop and he end up using about $100 something. Well that’s how I know but I wasn’t for sure.

A couple of weeks pass and he came over to visit and I had a bag full of quarters which should be wroth around $30 and I use that to like go dry my close when it rains. Anyways, that went missing and he was the only one in my room the most. I now know for sure that he robs me that last time I had that party.

I wanted to confront him about it but since we are as close as cousin I don’t know if I should. What should I do? In a way I want to kick his As$ and in a way I want to tell him straight out that why would he do this. What should I do??? We are both 19 years old

Answer 1

Sorry to hear to got done over mate, It hurts when its the ones you trust the most (family) I have been robbed a couple of times and never by a stranger! That's what sucks, But tell me why do we keep it quiet? Because its family and hey, they are our loved ones we don't want to get them into trouble. They are getting them self into trouble by stealing, stop protecting your cousin and make him face the music. Try and do it within the family first but if that doesn't work, You need to treat it like it was a stranger. The longer you just push it under the rug, the worse it will get, let him take responsibility for his actions. Its not your problem, don't stand for been robed. That's wrong you know that, your cousin now needs to know that, and if he was buying drugs with the money he stole, he needs help anyway, this is a way for you to help him!! Your strong so do what you know is right!

#1
You are minors if the legal drinking age in your location is 21 ....you've noted both being 19 so is this why you can't call the police as people usually can do when they are stolen from?

#2
Parties and drinking are for adults who serve 0-2 alcoholic beverages...meaning the focus of a functional party usually doesn't have the focus as being alcohol and instead based a theme or reason for gathering together. Beyond that I think the party is based on the laziness of a host. Anything beyond that could quickly result in a huge consequence which you already have experienced. You've been stolen from and there are no excuses for this however, complicated your party and your wallet. One amongst your friends is not a trustworthy individual.

Are you ~100%~ positive your cousin took that money?
If you are certain then you are are dealing with a relative that has a drug/theft problem despite the relation....blood does not entitle anyone to things that belong to another. If you aren't certain then say nothing to your cousin....a false accusation is just as bad as stealing and can cause rift in families.

If it were me and I knew -4 certain- he took money he'd no longer be welcome at my pad until he paid me back and apologized. I most likely would not speak to him if he lied during an attempt to get my money back until resolve occurs. At the same time I would take into account that I had a party that resulted in a lesson learned and consider fellowship in healthier ways. I'd have no other choice.

If it were me and I wasn't -4 certain- who took the money I'd still take into account that I had a party that resulted in a lesson learned and make it a point to find positive ways to hang out with friends. I'd have no other choice but to refuse to supply an environment for ?someone? who is untrustworthy.

Answer 3

TWO WAYS OF DOING IT.(TODAY'S WAY).(The OLD WAY)Be sly as a fox on this one .Invite your cousin over for a drink or to burn one.Don't Let on that your privy to his miss deeds.Make sure there is no one present.(Meaning no witness).Stay cool calm and collected. (TODAY'S WAY)Once he is comfortable,present the facts as you know them. He was seen doing the deed .(don't give up the trust of the friend that let you in on the information).Tell him you are giving him a chance to right his wrong.Tell him one way or the other he is going to repay his debt to you.If he dose it in a timely fashion,at your discretion you could stay as friends but wiser.Or write him off as a lesson learned. (THE OLD WAY)
You'll need two implement's.# 1 a board 2 by 4 inch and 36 inches in length . Longer or shorter if you prefer.#2 a broom or stick size of a broom handle.After he gets to your place and is comfortable you can present the issue or not.Then beat his face in with the 2 by 4. Make sure you stay calm at all times.Then take the broom and smack your own face with it only hard enough to leave some red marks or slight bruise.Then call the cops .Tell them he tried to rob you again and attacked you.That you took the board away from him and protected yourself. End of story. ( Always remember a short story to the Cops is your best friend.Stick to your version and dont add to it. I myself prefer the (OLD WAY). Hope this helps you out.

Answer 4

confront him and let him know you took it.If he used the money for drugs sounds like he has a problem. Good luck.

Answer 5

Either hide your money, don't let him come over, or kick his butt!!
