here first you will have tosee wheter he is in a position to return and if he is, then while talking to him you may hint that you are in need of money due to some urgency(whatever it is ) in your life. I always feel that in relations and friends lending money makes you lose money and friend both unless while giving you are very clear when you want it back or if doesnt mke any differnce to you if it is not returned.I dont find anything bad in being straightforwrd like asking him frankly that -now that you are in need of money,can he give it to him? if he is in a position to return and his intentions are honest, he will do it and instead of feeling bad he will always be thankful to you, but if the case is opposite like either he is not in a position to give--then there is nothing you or he can do,or if his intentions are not honest, then atleast now you know that he is not a friend.
