Hi. Recently someone broke an item of mine that I let them borrow. the item cost $150. At first she said that she wanted to pay for it but now she won't. she says that she won't because I "stepped to her in the wrong fashion". In my eyes I didn't and "even if I did" wouldn't she still be responsible for paying fo rsomething that she broke?

Sue her in small claims court.

This is where you decide whether or not you want to keep this person as a friend, although it seems that they have already shown you that if they are a friend, they are not a very considerate one. (I am still trying to figure out the meaning of "stepped to her in the wrong fashion" ). I think that you are alleging conversion, which is that she converted your property to her own use. You can, of course, sue her in "small claims court", and in Georgia, that is called Magistrate Court. You should be prepared with some receipt, however, to show the value of the item, and be prepared to lose a friend.
