friend spent night and money is missing, did she take it?
okay so like Thursday my friend spent the night. We wanted pizza so my dad gave us 20 bucks than went to go hang out with his friends (I had mine so he was going to hang out with his). The pizza was just under 20 bucks, I tip well so I was going to give the delivery person a 4 dollar tip. I went upstairs to go get more money out of my wallet in my purse, and my friend told me she had 4 bucks but it was in quarters. We used those. I had brought my 4 dollars (it was bills), down stairs and left them on the table. So we had dinner and she fell asleep around 12AM and we went upstairs around 1AM. We slept till about 6:30AM (I was excited for a concert so I couldn’t sleep). but before she woke up I went back down stairs to get my 4 bucks of the table and went upstairs and put them by my bed on my dresser. Then when we were both up we went downstairs and watched tv and played on Youtube with my mom’s laptop. I went upstairs to take a shower, it was maybe 10-15 minutes. Then I went back downstairs and she went up to get her stuff so my dad could take her home. I wouldn’t say she was up there for a long time, not even 5 minutes? She went home about 10:30 AM, I found out I had got concert tickets for my birthday to the concert I wanted to go to. It was about 4 PM. So when I went upstairs around 7 to get ready for the concert, I wanted to bring money for a shirt or something. I checked in my wallet and I was missing my 60 dollars, I looked on my dresser to see if the 4 bucks were still there, they weren’t. I know I didn’t spend my money because I checked on it the night before and I was saving for a new phone so I wouldn’t spend it. I don’t want to think that she took it because I trust her alot and she’s not that kind of person, she’s never begging for money and her mom normally gives her money if she asks, so I don’t want to believe she took it.. I haven’t told my parents, should I? If she took my money, how do I confront her? Sorry this is so long.. that’s alot of money to me and I really trusted her..
I haven’t asked her if she did take it, I don’t know how to ask that question to a friend..
Thanks for answering.

she took it
Before talking to anyone, triple check everywhere you could have put it. If you are absolutely sure its not there, talk to your friend. Just ask her if she saw any money laying around when she was over. If she acts strange, something may be up. Tell you parents your missing the money and say you think she could have possibly taken it. If your parents don’t know anything about the missing money, just flat out ask her if she took it. Don’t be mean about it, but make sure she knows its an important issue.
Wow If she did take it, it would be hard to trust her again. I would just bring it up. Tell her the strangest thing happened the other day possibly when she was there. See how she response and tell her the only conclusion you can come up with is that she took it. I say first you should search your whole house and come up with a million other conclusions as to what happened to the money because its hard to accuse a good friend of stealing something of yours no matter how you say it. BUT you got to know for sure. You dont want your parents things to go missing and have them blame you. You might want to tell your parents also if she has stolen the money, they may not want her over anymore.
