However, after I had an affair we split up &#8211; it was over a year ago and he never paid me back. I&#8217;ve just discovered he&#8217;s landed a well-paid job and got a new girlfriend. Can I ask for this much-needed money back?He can get some satisfactionIf you got some form of agreement in writing, now&#8217;s the time to wave it above his head. Otherwise you&#8217;re in the unhappy situation of having to plead to his better nature. I&#8217;d find it hard to forgive someone doing the dirty on me, and I&#8217;d be unlikely to be talking to them afterwards, especially if I had found a more pleasant and loyal girlfriend. Nevertheless, in his position I&#8217;d pay the money back, but would probably make you beg a bit. That&#8217;s all he has left now to gain some satisfaction. If he&#8217;s a man of honour you&#8217;ll get it back in due course; if not, or if you aren&#8217;t giving us the full picture, then you&#8217;ll have to accept it and learn from your affair and your mistake.carloswhizz, via theguardian.com\/money Continue reading&#8230;&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : theguardian.com&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/money\/2008\/may\/02\/divorce.debt\" target=\"_blank\">Can I get my money back from an ex?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; I lent my boyfriend \u00a32,000 while we lived together.
