My friend won’t pay me back after I loaned her $2,500. How do I ask for repayment without ruining our friendship?

Dear For Love & Money,

I have a good friend who was going through a financial hardship, and she asked me for a loan. She assured me she would pay me back quickly. I’m young and don’t have a lot of savings , so giving her $2,500 was most of my buffer.

It’s been months, and every time I bring it up, she puts me off or changes the subject. I don’t want to lose my friendship! What should I do?

Sincerely,

Not a Loan Shark
