Thank you John for your comment.  Well, it is indeed sad to realized that after all, a friend wasn't real.

But , I don't think so.

If  he or she is a real friend, It is not matter to lend money.

If my friend really need money, I will give money without returning.

"If he or she is a real friend, it does not matter to lend money.'

'If my friend really needed money, I would give him or her money without expecting for return.'
