I don't lend money, if a friend or relative needs money, I give them a gift. This way, I am never disappointed. My mil asked for a 'loan' for by bil wedding... a sizeable amount for us at the time... I told my wife to give her 1/4 of what she asked for (although it hurt, it was not catastrophic, being without) as our gift, ... did not ask for it to be returned. This way no one is obligated to anything... peace of mind is worth it.
If I ever get it back, then I invite them to dinner or something ... and have a good time for all
