Well that was very thoughtful and rather big hearted of you Xusnake. I I hope your friend will one day realise just how much you looked out for him even though he robbed you and hurt your feelings. I also hope stealing is not a habit he has or that he is developing or else he might rob someone else who may not be so kind to him. Many times our friends and sometimes relatives have less than desirable habits but it is hard to just throw them out in the cold sometimes. Of course there comes the time when we draw the line. I sure hope your friend will indeed change and become a good man. (lol)

That was a very nice thing you did by forgiving him, I don't think I could be that kind. You probably will never get your money back from him but I would tell him to return your ID or else I would report him to the police because you don't want him to ever use your ID, that can get you into trouble.

that is so thoughtful of you to let it pass and make him graduate so as for him to have a better life. but i think you should let him know that you know he did it just to make sure he will not do it again in the future, as he may not be lucky the second time. he's got to learn his lesson at one point and needs to straighten up for him to avoid future problems.

Well, it's good for you to be concerned with the guy who robbed you. You forgave him, all right. All the goodness will return to you seven-folds once you are in need. Just continue being good and God will bless you all the blessings that he could bestow on you. I wish I could be like you. Even if I'm the one who was stepped over, I'll still not be selfish and continue to love my neighbors as they love me.

That is a very nice thought Xusnake, You have given him his life for which he should be very grateful to you. As you say if he had been caught and then dismissed from college his life would have been spoilt and he would have got into real thefts. So We can safely assume that he'll be a better man in the future and will work hard, get the graduation exam well and come out in flying colours. He should be grateful to you..

It was a right thing to do. But also i think you should ask him nicely and with compassion and love, is he really took your money. You can also ask if he in financial situation and need help. You as his friend can offer some help if he is in trouble.
