Help Me Talk To This Mean Girl!?

Okay, Its this girl and I let her borrow my phone on Friday, she forgot it today and is not going to be here tomorrow, so on Wednesday I need to get my phone from her. But I get really tongue-tied, and lose confidence, so what do I say?

Update:

This Girl Is Also Known For Fighting Over Dumb Things.

Update 2:

You're right, I was really dumb and for some reason trusted her, and I will NEVER do it again.

    Just ask her nicely for your phone back. dont let her be a threat to you. Stay confident. Also some people may seem ways by what they appear but unless you actually really know them you dont really know what there like. So you need to stand up for yourself and not be afraid to talk to her, it took me two years to figure this out, and if your too afraid to talk to you, just write her a note, i know this might sound dumb but this is what helped me out, at first. And it turned out great. Just politely talk to her, dont be afraid, your just asking for your possessions back. Dont let your fears get the best of you. I learned everything from this one quote "the only regret on should have in life is the regret of never taking the chance"

    Hope this helps. and take care.

    Just say "hey remember i let you borrow my phone, like last week? Well now I need it, so give it back, kay?" Say it with a kind of edge to your voice, like you're annoyed that you even have to ask. This way you're being straight-forward, not too mean, but you're letting her know you're not gonna let it slide. Hope I helped! ♥- moi

    "Hello..I need my phone back as soon as possible." I can't understand how people lend their phones out, whether it's pre-paid, family plan, boot leg, whatever. Stop lending things to others that you can't get back.

    if you lose your confidence when you talk to her, then you don't have to bring it up like "give me back my phone or where's my phone" but you can be like "hey, you still got my phone?"
