    She sounds some people I know that constantly crave attention. As weird as it sounds, she may be keeping them over there so you pay her more attention. There are some red flags from what you have said, for sure.

    Yeah, and that's not something I'm into. Wanna hang? Let's do it. Want me to coddle you? Not gonna happen. There are more flags, but it's just gonna turn into a *kitten* session if I air them here.

    Today I would probably eat the cookies in the store before I even got out into the parking lot so I wouldn't even technically hold them at all for a friend per say.

    see Im not the only one

    As requested, I bought four packages of cookies for a friend, to be reimbursed upon return home. After having them sit in my place for two weeks (she was too busy - lives 5 minutes away), my husband and I ate a package. They've been here a month and a half now. I know I should've left them alone, but having them here was just too tempting. I let her know we ate one, apologized, and stuck the others in a closet. I've tried contacting her, but no response. How long would you say I'm expected to hold them? Are they mine now? How long could you hold out?

    20 minutes.

    I would eat them and then forget all about it. If she ever asked I could honestly just say, "What cookies?"

    If she gets mad at you for eating the cookies tell her I said it was OK.

    I would wait about a week unless I was contacted with some extenuating circumstances...

    If I had someone pick something up for me that I really wanted, I'd be there asap to pick it up.

    As long as it takes for them to take it back

    If I get too bored Ill set it on a table for them to pick it up themselves

    No response to anything I sent, I was going to leave them in the laundry room for anyone to take, but then I thought about it and being petty isn't the way to go, so I dropped them off at her place. I really wanted to get rid of them - everyday I'd think about them sitting in the closet, tempted to eat and annoyed as all hell. Looks like she ghosted me, funny because a guy did it to her and she called him all sorts of cowardly names. No wonder she has no friends.

    If she had paid for the cookies upfront than they were hers and you'd owe her reimbursement for the box you ate. However, since she never paid you and she doesn't seem interested in picking them up; plus you paid for them yourself, they are your cookies to eat.
