Some commenters speculated that the former friend might have mental health issues, promptingyoinkybehavior
Believe it or not, stealing can be considered a mental health disorder in some cases. Takekleptomania, for instance. It’s a disorder where the afflicted person can’t fight the urge to steal something, even if they don’t need it.
