I've got a problem.
Last month, a buddy asked me to buy something on his behalf, so I did.
Then later, I asked him for the money. It's less than MYR20 only so I was not chasing for it. Then last week, again, I hinted that I have not received the money, but he said he paid me back already, and I went, "No la, that's for another item. For this item not yet."
He said, "Oh yeah ah? I pay you now."
So I felt very odd and tried to recall last month's events and realised that he did indeed pay me back a few days after I bought the item for him.
Now I feel so bad for having received the money twice.
I don't even know if I should tell him my mistake or not, or just keep quiet. I thought I'd keep quiet and just treat him to a meal next time or buy him a gift but he has taken a two year hiatus to go backpacking so it'll be a long while before I see him again.
By the time I see him, I'd have forgotten about the money again!
I can't even bank in the money into his local bank account cos I don't have his account number and if I tell him that I want to return the money to him, he sure will ask me to keep it. But I don't want to take people's money like this. Aiya... very rice. Don't know how to solve this. I've got the email drafted but do I send it out or not?
