Today, I found out my best friend has been stealing hundreds of dollars from me and my fiancé. My wedding is tomorrow morning. Guess who my best man is. FML

Why don't you just make him give the money back and then find a new best man?

Hope he stole enough for his hospital bills.

Might wanna give him his Groomsman Gift early...you know those shiny matching silver bracelets...with the chain linking them... Yeah those.

Many times people steal from friends or loved ones because they expect forgiveness. perhaps he was too ashamed to ask for help. maybe he has a drug or other addictive habit. There's a reason you asked him to be your best man. Remind him how one acts through example and compassion.

Or remind him how it feels to get his ass beat

How the hell does that make it okay to steal from friends

So you would forgive someone stealing all that $$$ off you? RIGHTEO someone does t know the difference between right and wrong

Even if he is broke and is too ashamed to ask for help it doesn't make it okay to steal. If he has an addiction he needs to seek treatment. There is no reason why someone should steal from their best friend.

Um Im pretty sure you can call the cops on him. Get back your money

I doubt they have proof of the theft that will hold up in court. Missing cash is pretty much untraceable unless OP wrote down all the serial #s

Talk to him first and see why he did it. If you guys are really good friends you will work it out and hopefully he'll pay you back

I really don't think it should matter "why he did it." He stole money from people who trusted him. People who were his friends. Personally, if I were OP, I'd probably cut ties with him. What else is the guy doing that OP doesn't know about? I guess that's harsh but I can't stand thieves/liars.

You should totally call him out in front of everyone at the wedding. Embarass the shit out of him. Yes, I know this would probably be tactless or trashy...but then again, so is stealing from your best friend. That sucks, OP. I hope you can find some legal way to make him pay you back or get him punished for what he's done.

I'm going to guess that your best friend is also your best man? I'm not 100% sure though, seems a bit easy

Not anymore. I'm sure you have other groomsmen you can choose to be your best man.

confront him, tell him if he doesn't give all the money back your going to go to the cops
