So my father had what was thought to be in a stroke towards the end of June 2018. I had just used all my money for paying bills and I needed to figure out a way to get down there. My friend loaned me 200$ for a rental car to go see him and I told her I was not sure when I would be able to pay her back since I was in between jobs at the moment. She said oh do not worry I know you will pay me back when you are able. So I left it at that, I sent her 75$ shortly after to start paying off the small loan. But she did not accept the payment and was returned to my account days later. By the time the money was returned my bank account was in the negative and I could not send it back. So this is the 4th month since receiving the said loan and now she is taking me to court. I told her I would not be able to pay her anything until the end of this month as my rent is due and I have to use this check to pay it. She is not hearing any of that and has since blocked me off any accounts. In the beginning she said she was okay with me paying off little by little now she is demanding the 200 in full. Yes 200 isn't a lot of money but right now I am not making enough money to pay bills and have 200 to give her right now. Can I really be sued if I told her in the beginning that I was not sure when I could pay her back? I have all of this in messages between us so I have proof.
