Friend owes me thousands

He is not your friend.

What other friends do you have?  Siblings?   Close colleagues?

Have you felt able to ask your parents for help or advice?

Ask him for your money, if he makes threats, your counterthreat of telling his wife is much worse, so if i am reading into this right he will not follow through with his threat.  Unfortunately it doesnt sound like you will get your money back, but i wouldnt be worried about jeapordinsing your perseved friendship as it is non existant, all this guy is, is a leech, the friendship is fake so he can get what he wants off you...money.  You would be better off without him.

Does your brother still owe you money too?

33 year old male living with parents. Yes I would say vulnerable adult ? 

Op speak to your parents for any advice. You have lost the £6000. He is not your friend. Ignore / block all contact!

Do not get into any conversations / emails / phone calls  TOTALLY ignore from now on.

Yes I’m paying of his loan, (in my name but I didn’t get a penny)however he’s paid of loans in past and when he does have money he pays the loan

hes unemployed at the momment 

and when he ask for little nearly always pays me back and doesn’t harrses me for money, or blackmail me or anything like that.
