Question
If someone said not seriously that they vow all the time not to spend money on their friend. Is this a problem?
Answer
Hello,
I did not understand the exact case from the question.
I will just provide a basic rule: if it is clear from the words that the person did not intend a vow, it is not a vow. Even if he said 'I vow'.
Like a person telling a story that someone said 'I vow'.
However, if a person says they vow, even if in their heart they thought it would not be a vow, they need a release from the vow.
