Very bad Spanish writing, but here's my best guess as to the meaning.
Es que yo quería poner un puesto de elotes, pero yo ya le he pedido, pero no me prestó. Tú no tienes que me los prestes. Yo te los mando en un mes. Por favaor regrésame un mensaje.

It's positively frightening that you could decode that. I'm reminded of novels about profilers "thinking their way into" the minds of serial killers.
Sorry, but how I translated it, the whole thing didn't make much sence. Sorry.
Gracias! I am just learning spanish and my friend thinks that I know a lot more than I do. Thanks a lot!

The thing is that I wanted to set up an elote stand, and I have already asked him, but he wouldn't lend me [anything]. You don't have to lend me them. I'll send them to you in a month. Please write back.
"Elote" is a type of Mexican corn, often sold at sidewalk stands.
