Need stories of bad friends

[ericamanda01]

I know this is an odd request, but I am writing a fictional story for a writing scholarship and need some bad friends stories. I have my own but I have used them and need more to make it a truly crazy story.

Am I the only one...hehe, well here ya go, life is stranger than fiction :

Larry and Joe are so called BF's and have been for 4 years.

Larry knows that Joe is looking for a huge screen tv and is not about to be able to afford 1300.00 for one on his income with a new family and all. One day Larry comes in with a big screen tv and it is a beauty, several weeks later Larry tells Joe that " if he wants the tv he can buy it for 700.00 from him ", what a steal, but what are BF's for, so he takes his house payment money and buys the tv, deciding just to go ahead and be behind on house payment for such a once in a lifetime deal.

So Joe gives Larry 700.00 for the tv and moves it into his place, everything is peaches and cream for about a month.

One day Joe's wife answers a knock on the door and it's rent a center wanting to pick up the tv, the women calls them crazy and slams the door shut. Later that evening rent a center and the police are back to retrive the tv, match serial numbers and take the tv.

Joe calls Larry and trys to figure out what's going on and he wants his money back. Larry trys to convince him that he knew that the tv was rented and it was on him, to bad so sad.

So Joe takes Larry to small claims court and loses because he doesn't have proof of the 700.00 he is out. So he is out a BF, 700.00 plus court cost, plus a pending court date with the police, where Larry will be too because his name is on the rental agreement but claims Joe came in and stole the tv from him.

You can't get much worse than that.....true story...names were changed to protect the innocent.

Doesn't it need to be your own work? Is it fictional? If so I bet you could come up with lots of craziness on your own. If not, why not just use what you already have?

My mom died after buying a new car. Thing was two weeks old. So I'm taking that and giving mine to DS.

Friend asks what we're doing with DS' car and I tell her we'll sell it. Looked up Blue Book, should get around 4K. Friend asks if I can give it to her.

I could, but I'm not. I'm going to sell it. If she wants it, I'll sell it to her for 2500. She tells me that I know damn well they don't have 2500 and can't I just give it to her.

I could, but I'm not. But she really needs a car. I know that, but we've decided to sell it. We can use the money. Friend says we don't need the money.

We don't need it to eat, but we do have a lot of expenses - the tuitions are killing us - and it will come in handy. But she NEEDS it and we don't NEED it; we have enough money.

Well we have enough money because we worked hard for it and we don't make stupid decisions like giving away cars we could sell. It's my inheritance and I'm keeping it. I'm not giving it to her. We're selling it and that's that.

Friend is now not speaking to me. She's been a good friend up till now. If she gets over this, I'll forgive her for her rudeness. If she doesn't, no big loss IMO.

Sort of. I am just using bit and pieces for inspirations.

Thanks for these crazy stories!

So I met this woman at work. She was funny and liked to go to movies and I figured I could strike up a friendship with her. We started hanging out, shopping together, going to movies. I would bring her food and run errands for her when she was sick. My husband worked long hours and we would hang out when he was away. We talked every work day and at least once on weekends for about 4 months.

Then I noticed that she wasn't talking with me as much. She wasn't calling on weekends. We weren't getting together as often. After about a month of cooling off, she basically cut all ties with me. I still saw her during work but there was practically no chit-chat, just work. I questioned others who had been so friendly with her before and they had had the same experience.

She is a serial friend. Not as bad as losing money, but it is strange to have become so close to someone and then have them drop out of your life.

A friend from high school and I ended up living in the same college dorm, but on different floors. She started spending a lot on my floor and getting close to my roommate and the girls in the next room. I hung out with them, too, but I was busy with school and didn't have the kind of free time they seemed to have. One night I came back and it was obvious that they had been drinking. I kicked them out of my room, but the party continued next door. Later my friend wanted to get more beer and decided to call an older townie she had met to see if he would take her. I tried to talk her out of it, but she was drunk and determined. I couldn't stop her and was worried about her safety so I decided to go with her because she would have been an easy victim. When we got back she decided to sneak the guy and the beer into the dorm. I told her I would have nothing to do with it and told her to wait until I was out of the lobby and in the elevator before she came in. She completely ignored me and ran to the elevator with the guy and the huge bag of beer. I should have gotten off the elevator then and there. As we stepped out onto my floor, she saw the RA coming and ducked into a stairwell, leaving me with a guy I didn't know and a bag of beer. I was written up, had a hearing, and ended up in trouble. I never ratted her out by name, and she never stepped forward to clear me. My parents knew I didn't drink so they believed me. This was one of the biggest eye-openers about friendship. Not everyone is going to do the right thing.

when I got married, two different friends asked if they could give me a shower. To each I said, "Yes, thank you. That would be very sweet." Neither of them gave me a shower. (And no, I wasn't bridezilla - it was a very low key wedding.)
