I 18f wanted to get my lashes done for prom. Originally I had asked my uncle for 50$ as I had not known how much lashes cost. Upon realizing the price I was crushed ($168). My date however offered to pay the difference, so I applepayed her the $50 to put twords the deposit (which was 35$). The time was getting close to my lash appointment when we got in an argument and she decided that because of our argument she no longer wanted to pay for the difference. I called my uncle in tears and begged him to send me the money to which he begrudgingly agreed. When he asked how much I needed I told him I was given the fixed price of $180.(even tho it was 168$) Since he already sent the $50 he sent me $130. My date had already ordered the uber and still had some of my money left over from the deposit so we made up and she decided to tag along. I gave her the remaining $130 so that she could just pay on her card. Everything went perfectly and both my date and I were very happy with my lashes.
BUT here’s where things went wrong. The day after prom my date realized the lash lady accidentally charged for the deposit twice. Instead of calling the lady to address the problem she demanded I have my uncle reimburse her. I told her that wasn’t fair and that she should call the lady because it was not my uncles fault, nor would my uncle agree to pay for a mistake that was not his. After some arguing I told her that I would try to ask my uncle for the money when he receives his next check. She dropped the situation however it would be brought up every few days. I’d tell her to call the lady as it wasn’t mine, my uncles or her fault that the lady charged an extra deposit. Again she refused to call the lady and demanded my uncle pay.
Things seemed like she had dropped it for a bit but then today she brought up the situation again more agitated. She told me that I didn’t really love her if I wouldn’t ask for the money from my uncle. After some arguing and me telling her my uncle would not agree and that she needed to call the lady I gave up and texted my uncle. I explained the situation to him and naturally he refused to pay and reiterated what I had said about calling the lash lady. I showed my date the text messages and she became even more upset because I hadn’t “stuck up for her”.
Now she is still upset and refuses to call the lady for her money back. She genuinely cannot see how this is not mine or my uncles fault. If you were in my position what would you do? Any advice is greatly appreciated!!
