Default Re: Loaning Money

I think you've got two choices and they are both sorta desperation plays.

The first is intimidation - threaten her with a lawsuit. You shouldn't actually need a lawyer to file a suit in small claims court, but having one always helps. Unfortunately, it sounds like you don't have any documentation, so your only hope here is that she's too stupid to realize this (and if she bilked you out of this much money, she's probably not stupid).

The other option is to play on her sympathy. Make up some sob story about why you really need the money and hope she takes pity on you and pays at least some of it back. What's your pride worth?
