and then
I gave it about two weeks before saying anything. I didn’t want to seem pushy, but it started bothering me daily. After 2-3 weeks, I sent a casual message like, “Hey, just checking in about the money — no rush if you’re struggling, just let me know.” It opened the door for a conversation without making it awkward. Lesson learned: next time, I’ll agree on a deadline up front.
