Question: Any advice on getting back $2000 loaned to boyfriend 18 months ago? No longer going out but he refuses to pay? I've emailed him requests for payment but he refuses, I even sent him a letter of demand, but to no avail.  Is is worth taking him to the Small Claims Court?  I have nothing in writing, apart from a receipt for the golf clubs he brought with the money.

Answer: Do what you need to but honestly the amount you will spend trying to get it back could be more than the actual amount owed to you. You could have a lawyer speak with him but if you never signed a contract or anything of that nature he could say it was a gift. Just let it go. I know its alot of money but even if you win a court case, he may never pay a dime and you will be out even more money.
