[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to be clear, you bought a treadmill you should not have spent money on? She asked for it, and then you agreed?[/quote]

"Should not have spent money on?"  We live in one of the most polluted cities on the planet, so exercise outdoors is not possible, I work full time and would not be able to get to a gym most days, and I do prioritize my health.  I cannot afford to NOT make this priority.  It isn't as if I'm going bankrupt from buying it, just that the money would have meant a lot to me in reselling before I move.

But, yes, I reluctantly agreed after the other option fell through.  That is on me. [b] If I could go back, I would have just lied and said I found a seller in my building for the sake of saving our friendship, I guess. [/b] [/quote]

Honestly I don't think this would have solved the problem. Sure, it would have lessened the sting since she wouldn't have ended up with the treadmill, but in reading your post, the thing that got to me was her insistence that you give her the treadmill for free from the start. That was aggressive and rude and it showed what kind of person she is. If you had ended up selling the treadmill to someone else, you would have had cash in your pocket and been happy that she didn't get it for free, but it wouldn't change at all who she is. So I think that's the real issue. [/quote]
