Heya Lexus--
Well, are the things his?
He's just got the cop involved to make you nervous.
Kill 'em with kindness and be super nice to the cop!!!
Yeah, I dunno about eating the $150 - that totally sux - but getting in an argument about it, especially when tension is so high won't make the money magically appear. Maybe mention it real sunny and casually in front of the cop! Like, oh before you go could you write me that check for the $150 you owe me, etc... I mean you know him best - is he really ever gonna pay you?
Is this getting you on the road to where you want to be? Isn't it good if he comes and gets his stuff - like isn't that a marked FINAL moment? And it may be better for both of you that there will be a cop there. It's often in these final moments when the codie is no longer playing by the rules that the addict flips their wig.
Hang in there Lexus---
Peace,
B.
