Why did my best friend steal my ipod? can i still be friends with her?

OK so she’s like my soul sister and im crying cause i miss her so much.. but wouldnt it be a mistake to be friends with her? you see… what happen, trying to make a long long long story short.. we were at a sleepover at my house and when she left my ipod was gone! i was so upset, it’s the new ipod touch that plays outloud on its own and has 32gb and stuff and i got it for xmas in ’08 and my dad engraved my name on the back of it just for me!!! anywho, i asked her about it and she said “you think i stole your ipod dont you! i would never do that i cant believe you would think i would do that!” and so i dropped it… BUT THEN… one day i called her house and her mom picked up the phone and said “alicia isnt aloud to talk on the phone, she’s grounded.. when do you want me to drop off your ipod?” and i said “ALICIA HAS MY IPOD?” and she said “she told me you let her borrow it” and i said “no… my ipod has been missing almost 2 months and she told me that she didn’t know what happen to it!” and her mom said “I see. I’ll drop it off tomorrow.” So then the next day (well yesterday) she came to my door, gave it to me and said that she didnt steal it that it “somehow” ended up in her bag and she didnt know how and that she knew it sounded stupid but it was the truth and she was really sorry for not giving it back as soon as she found it and she only used it once or twice. Then, later she said that it was dead the whole time and she never used it.. then she went to her grandmas and she wont be home until tomorrow. i plugged my ipod into my computer, and there was a password lock on it (not mine i never had one) so i couldnt even turn it on, the backround was canged, and it wasn’t named “Danielle’s iPod” anymore, it was named “Oh baby!!!” and all the songs were deleted and replaced with new ones.. so obviously it wasnt dead the whole time, AND she didnt use it once or twice. and now i remember her reading this quote while she was on the phone with me and i was looking through an application called “ipod backrounds” and it had the quote she read to me so she even used MY ipod when she was on the phone with ME and she didn’t even feel bad! she cried when she gave it back though? i never talked to her about it yet idk what to do. i think shes only sad cause she got caught and shes afraid i wont be her friend again.. but thats the thing idk if i can live without her shes my best friend we had sleepovers every weekend and talked on the phone every night and idk what to do. Can someone tell me the psychological stuff about why she stole in this incident? do you think she felt bad? should i be friends with her again?

and yes i did make this a short story, it was alot longer..

  • Could you really continue being best-friends and trusting someone who lied not only once, but continued lying after being caught several times? I couldn’t. Someone who lies like that isn’t a good friend at all and you probably shouldn’t continue hanging out with her because from what you described, it sounds like she’d do it again.

  • Wow..this is an interesting situation and something similar actually happened to me. A couple of years ago I had a friend who wasn’t the most honest person…we were at a party and I lost my cell phone and keys, She helped me look for them and we didn’t come up with a thing. I was really upset because it was the first awesome cellphone i bought with my own cash I worked for….a few weeks later I saw her again with a very identical phone but I wasn’t sure it was mine, as it was popular model, it was mine though, I confronted her about it but she said it wasn’t mine and made up some story. I stopped speaking to her for not only that but for some other serious reasons, she was irresponsible and untrustworthy etc. After I decided to forgive her and the incident back then when it happened…she has changed for the better and this year we are cool, but I still keep my stuff away, just to make sure. So you could be friends..but let some time pass, she needs to admit that she did it and stop lying to her friend, because you’d need to know for yourself if you can risk something like that happening again.

  • Here are some options…..

    If you’re MAD: You should say that wasn’t cool AT ALL. And tell her she needs to get ALL of your stuff back on your iPod and it wasn’t easy getting all that stuff on the iPod and she better never steal anything again and lie to you… And if she does she’s in GIANT , BIG , FATTY trouble…… (it’s a little harsh, but it’s what should happen)

    If you’re NOT mad: Just forget it and act like it never happened…..

    Source(s): I think your mad though….

  • Do not ever allow valuables to leave your grasp! File a report with the school office describing the Ipod.

  • Well its really wrong to hold grudges on people that used to be your best friends(i been through it ) so its really up to you whether you want to be friends with her. but i wouldn’t talk to her for a long time then i would start talking back to her ( the reason i say not to talk for her until a long time is because she violated your privacy and basically messed up you ipod) If that was me i would be furious

    so its really up tp you

    ~Haha~<3

  • Dont be friends with her. i know my best friend wouldnt do that kind of thing, EVER. And thats one of the reasons in friends with her. So if someone steals your stuff, kick them out! get a new friend.

    I dont think she felt bad. Her mom probobly wouldnt get her one, and so she took yours.

  • No. Of course you can’t be friends with her. How can you even think that?

    She STOLE from you! Don’t you get it??? Stealing is NEVER, EVER INNOCENT!

    I stole from a friend once. I was 17. It ruined my friendship completely, utterly, even though I took gave what I stole back. “I” couldn’t go back. Stealing is a one way street.

  • I wouldnt. Who would i wouldnt trust ur friend anymore

  • im sorry but there is no way I could read all that. if some girl stole your ipod, ask her nicely to give it back, or have you mom call her mom, if she’s really you friend she’ll give you back your ipod with no trouble.

  • Hmm…I think you should just talk face-to-face to her about it and get the story straight (: I don’t think you should loose a friend b/c of something like that.
