Irony at its best

There's this girl who complains (to me) that my friend doesn't return her friend money that she borrowed.
Today I found out that the complainer doesn't return money that she borrowed either.
A classic pot calling the kettle black.
I'm starting to doubt if my friend actually borrowed the money and not return or is she being framed.
After all, what I have is a one-sided story.
And you know what they say in history, it's not reliable!
LOL.
But still.
Irony like this happen everyday.
I don't just mean the money issue.
Many atime we say so-and-so has this issue, that-and-that cannot do such a thing, and so on.
But we fail to realise that we don't do it as well.
Or have the same issue.
And sometimes, because of our comments, we might hurt others' feelings.
Because if we face the same problem or fail to accomplish something, yet criticise others, isn't that being unfair to the person?
Moreover, are we in a position to criticise in the first place?
Maybe you'll think, yeah of course I am, I'm her good friend.
Still, that doesn't mean you shouldn't think about your comments first.
Because they may really hurt others.
Now, back to the money issue.
It's not a small amount.
(To both parties.)
I really think the money should be returned.
However I'm not the borrower or the lender, I can't really say anything.
So someone, please help.
PERSUADE the lender to ask for her money back (she's too weak and gets bullied by others, more easily than she thinks).
POLITELY ASK the borrower(s) to return money.
And let's hope for miracles, shall we?
And that, my friend, concludes history lesson #4 on reliability and literature lesson #5 on irony.
See ya! :D
