A friend borrowed $180 from me about three months ago, and we never agreed on a payback date. I'm on a tight budget this month, so I really need it back, but I don't want to make things awkward. Would it be better to ask in a casual text or bring it up the next time we see each other? I'd like a polite script that sets a clear timeline and maybe offers a payment plan if they're short. We also have a group trip coming up, so I don't want this to spill over into that. How can I keep it kind while still being firm?
