The moment "close friends" ask for money it's over.
Educated men in their early to mid 20s should or must know that friendship ends the exact moment when money is involved. Especially loans.

He may pay back he may not. The problem is there is a certain level of subconscious trigger enabled the moment you loan a friend money. The moment you give it to him not even but rather the moment when he asked for it. Just asking puts your friendship in jeopardy.

Your part would be to get informed on the topic and explain it to him very thoughtful and thoroughly.

Loaned old college roommate $500 after he paid me back many times in the past. Haven't heard from him since.

Do it only if you are ok with never seeing that money again.

Never loan a friend money. You only GIVE money to them WHEN you deem it a truthful necessity.

If I ever give money to a friend I will never ask for it back. Giving is great tool in life. Just make sure you make the right decision when you do.

Ask why, pay attention to their reasoning and body language, and then figure out how much and if you feel it to be truthful.

Not everyone has a family they get along with.

Also if a small loan could make all the difference then they should get a loan from a lending business. The interest on the loan is a small price to pay compared to being a piece of $hit putting your mate in an awkward position asking for money.
not everyone gets approved for loans and if it isnt paid at a certain time the interest goes up and/or they are reported to a credit agency. It isnt so simple.
