Would you cut off someone because they are anorexic?

Tonight is a roll.

Found out that a person who had to do a very important job for me - I had given her the money for it - just didn't show up at the meeting I had set up, cashiered the check and went to spend the money to get drunk at the bar.

This woman had issues, first and not last an eating disorder for which she takes all those supplements that are more a placebo than anything else, and me and others always tried to help her out.

But after this I was just done. Took seven calls before she answered, and tried to dodge my questions before I told I knew everything, that I had warned her I would always support her but to never screw me, which she did - so now she's done and I advised her to start applying for foodstamps and come up with my money tomorrow or there will be far worse consequences. She started to raise her voice so I just hung up and blocked her number.

At this point I'm just done, she got chances she kept blowing and I know her eating disorder is a main factor, but not an excuse either.

It isn't the eating disorder. It's the fact that she did this : Found out that a person who had to do a very important job for me - I had given her the money for it - just didn't show up at the meeting I had set up, cashiered the check and went to spend the money to get drunk at the bar.

That's pretty fucked up and I would have cut her off for that.

She used to be good at those things when we met a couple of years ago. I thought that despite her problems she was still trustworthy.

[NostalgiaSenpi]

Sorry to hear that. It sucks when things go sour.

If it was possible to help the lady and lift her up to a better place, I would try to do that. But I would not give her the opportunity to pull me down to her level.

[TrueConfection]

How about if they're obese? That's also an eating disorder.

My answer is no. Not solely because of their eating disorder.

[Agape93]

If they refused all help, yes. I won't watch a friend starve to death.

[Jamie05rhs]

Sounds to me like she has much deeper issues.

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

She's going to have much more problems now.

[Jamie05rhs]

Unfortunately yes.

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

What's worse is that she's got another person into this mess. This third person wants to repay me in her stead to cover for her, and if I refuse they said I am going to have a problem with them as well.

[Jamie05rhs]

Oh, wow. Craziness.

My ex was anorexic. My god was her body hot.

In the context you just gave, absolutely.
