Well, she is definitely causing you problems. But is she making you stumble? Are you getting swept up in the things she is getting swept up in? If not, then perhaps God put her into your life for a reason. Reach out to her and show God's love. You probably have been already, but maybe stick with it. When she asks for money, just say no. Say you're saving it, and if she says,"I'll pay you back," say,"No you won't." Force her to learn. Or you can just unfriend her on facebook. That usually works, right?

Girder, lol people don't know when you unfriend them on Facebook unless they check.

Just ignore all ways of communication with her. Eventually she will move on and find new friends and realize maybe you're tired of her. So, just don't answer her phone calls and texts.

Good luck and God bless. :)

Before you say yes, question this person and her motives. She's just using you and she loves to use you.

Don't be naive and don't let her take any more advantage of you.

She's not a good friend. A good friend will build a healthy relationship with you in God but she's been lying to you too much.

Question her when you are alone with her and when she's trying to use you again. Ask her if she remembers that day when she sang how she loves God. Sting her conscience a bit if she still retains any. If she loves God, why is she hurting you, a neighbor and a close friend, so much?

Don't fall for her tears. Don't fall for her anger. Don't fall for anything that she stirs up. Be stoic and serious. Be very honest and wise with your words. Say that she's been hurting you and list all those things that she's done. If she says, "Forgive me," forgive her, but don't be friends with her anymore. A person does not change within a day unless they allow God to be in their heart and try. Move on and far away from her.

You don't need to keep it long. Just be short and concise with your words and leave.
