I don't usually post the personal things on here, but this warrants it. About 2 weeks ago, I took my friend, we'll call him Saul, to a Steelers game. He crashed at my house afterward and I took him back to his apartment the next day. When I returned home to get back bag ready for a day of class, I noticed that my iPod touch was not where I left it.
I remembered "Saul" was the last one to have it, so I called him and asked him where he put it. He said, he put it back on my desk. Well, I looked there, no iPod. I looked in my kitchen, no iPod. I looked under my table, no iPod. So, I didn't know what to do. I asked my best friend, what he thinks the chances are that Saul stole my iPod. He said it was pretty good. So he investigated and it turns out, that indeed, Saul stole my iPod in an attempt to sell it for $150 dollars.
This hurts for a variety of reasons. One, Saul has been my friend for nearly a decade and I've trusted him. I also paid for his son's clothing for the first 5 months of his life. When he needed a ride to Albany to pick his son up, I drove him. When he needed 400 dollars for a payment on his apartment, I gave it to him. I have always been a great friend to him. He repays me by stealing one of my favorite possessions, my iPod.
His sister is going to make him return it to me in the next few days and I am going to cut him off and be done with him. It's just a terrible feeling knowing a decade-long friendship has come to an end over an iPod.

The real unfortunate thing, IMO, is that I bet you'd have GIVEN him the 150 dollars if he had just asked.

Sounds like he's been a real shitty friend to you overall. Comes off as a bit of a leech. Sucks to find out this way though...had it happen to me once.

Sorry to hear it bro,I've never had that happen to me,but I can only imagine how heartbreaking it is;you sound like you would've given him the shirt off of your back had he needed it. Dude sounds like he needs a butt whooping to be honest,I couldn't imagine stealing from one of my best friends and I couldn't imagine them doing the same..

Sounds to me like you need to cut this guy off completely, man. The second I get my iPod back, I am done with the dude. He's basically dead to me. What pisses me off is, I've been a damn good friend to the guy and he does this. Seems like a dumb reason to end a friendship.

Friends wonder why I keep twin katana in my room...
I've had a few guys break off friendships because I caught them stealing, I used to be a guy everyone took advantage of and now I have katana to scare them.

That's messed up. Get your ipod back and never talk to the guy again.
