I let my roommate borrow my car and now I’m getting notices of fines and penalties for his unpaid parking tickets. What do I do?

My best friend keeps Venmo-requesting me for “shared” expenses I never agreed to. How do I set a boundary without losing the friendship?

Blowing up someone's phone isn't cool at the best of times; it's even less cool to do with Venmo requests for "shared expenses." If you have a friend that's constantly sending you Venmo requests for things that you didn't consent to buy, that's not friendship—that's financial abuse.
