How do I get back the money my friend owes me
I m 16. Me and my friend went on a trip where he didn't bring any money. We had an understanding that he would return the money afterwards. But now he is only stalling it.
Now, After the trip some of his stuff (phone charger, empty wallet) has been left with me. Should I use this as a leverage to get back my money?
Basically, Money first, Stuff later....
But now he has slowly started spreading a bad word about me in his friend circles.... I know if I give back his stuff without the money first then he would keep stalling it forever.
I don't own the money... It's my parents who do.
My parents asked me to not make a big deal of it and just leave it.
I have also tried to stall from my end saying that I m not in home so come later to pick up stuff
