Are you the type of person who often do this, borrow a lot of things from other person but no plans in returning it back? Or are you the person who always fell victim by this kind of people? If i borrow something from other people I always make sure that i will return it in good shape, that means taking good care of the item.

The irony of this situation is that I am the first to return things that I borrow yet I am always a victim of people not returning things they borrow from me.Persons are especially reluctant to return money that they borrow from me,yet when ever I borrow money it is returned in full and ontime .Iam a person like this anything I borrow stays on my mind until it is safely returned to the owner because I hate being the one to have to explain to someone how something they left in my care gets damaged or destroyed.

I never lend anything to anybody, and therefor I never borrow, unless I really have to (and then I give it back, of course). That applies particularly to books. As stated, I don't lend them, but in spite of this policy, I thought I'd make an exception, that was with a friend, and that was almost two years ago. I haven't seen that 'friend' nor my book ever since. Funny, no?

Hey lyza, I don't like to borrow things from people, but if I do I take very good care of it and make sure that I give it back the way I got it and as soon as I possibly can. I just have never been comfortable borrowing things. As much as I don't like to borrow I really hate to lend things. I tend to forget that I have lent something or I might need it back and then I feel uncomfortable asking for it. It creates problems when you borrow or lend things to friends. The best thing to do is not to do either.

I am like you, if I borrow something I will return it. Some people I think pretend they forgot to give you back your things, but what I do is to ask them back very simple until they give me what they borrowed back! I actually do not like to loan things to nobody!

I will not borrow anything, I do not want to be held responsible for it. I have lent out things before and since many people failed to return the items I refuse to lend anything to anyone anymore and when they ask I tell them why. It takes a few inconsiderate people to spoil it for everyone else.

hello friend,i also will return the items i borrow to the people voluntarily.and i will keep them in the good condition the same as in which i borrow from them.I think it is the most fundamental rule to be honest with other people.If you are dishonest, i think no one will lend you something in the future.lol good luck

we have the same experience,this kind of person don't mind if they are doing this.But in my case i'll make it sure that the things i'd borrow from you will be handled with care and as i finish using it i return it back immediately so that if i need it again you can lend it to me again
