..its so weird borrowing money from someone..

As much as possible I do not want to ask money from my parents or borrow from anybody else unless it is for some extremely important reasons. I just don't feel right about it. I feel I am such a loser! I do not want them to see me as this "minute" person who could not afford to pay or buy certain things for the family.

Hi subhojit! I also wouldn't want to be borrowing money from anybody especially if I know that we are just of the same situation. I would rather apply for a loan or pawn my jewelries. This way I will disturb anybody.

When I was still in elementary school I very rarely ask for money to my parents for pocket money, I felt bad because I know our economy was not too good. I always try to meet my personal needs, I usually recycle my things that I have that I do not have to buy new stuff. I am afraid to borrow money to others, I'm afraid that I can not return their money on time.

Well then just borrow when you really need it. Dont be shy with asking for money in the real world you will need it to buy the things you want or need. Shy people usually miss great opportunities, do not let shyness take over you.

I think that just mean you don't want always rely on your parents or from borrowing money from someone and that's good in its own way. Although you don't have hesitate to ask for help when you truly needed it. I think it's good that you have your concience not to begging for money from others too much, that'll make you motivate to earn enough money.

It's good that you got money from your scholarship and not depend on your parents. But if you really need the money you should have at least tell it to your parents rather than asking for someone else. Also, you could tell the reason why you need that money.

Well you are still quite young and still going to college, so it is not that bad to get money from your parents. When someone is my age and still borrowing money from people then they have done something wrong in their life and they are not taking care of their finances well. I borrowed some money when I was younger, but I have not borrowed money for over 20 years. Lately though a lot of people have been borrowing money from my husband and I and it is very sad because it shows how bad the economy is. Many of our friends and family are struggling these days, either with not being able to find jobs or having to take jobs where they make less money then they used to. We are being dragged down by our friends and family who are borrowing money from us in order to keep from losing their homes. Now we have lent out so much money if we have an emergency that requires a lot of money we are going to be struggling.

Hello suhojit10! I have never borrowed money from my parents. I have never ever asked them for it. But I have applied for two loans and I got them. Now I`m working to pay them. I was very messured with expences since I got married, but suddenly as children grew up, they increased. Fortunatly my eldest girl is beginning to work, she can buy her own shoes and clothes, and more things, soon. This is very helpful for our family finances. Blessings... dainy

I hate borrowing money from others so I know how you feel. It is hard to get good grades and work (believe me I have done it before and my grades had suffered)and I think that the reason why your parents give you money. I do not think it is right to beg others for money. I am glad that you got the scholarship to help pay for college.

well said and its bang on,exactly correct and that person must not feel so nettled to lend us money and we must not beg from them,we must get as a loan ideally

Well i am quite reluctant and hesitant to borrow money from someone I know or to a friend. Its quite uncomfortable for me. But if is quite emergency or urgent well maybe I could have the guts to ask. I think there is nothing wrong in borrowing money from someone as long as we know our responsibility of paying it on time.

It's good for you to have this sense of independence.This will encourage you to work hard and rely on yourselves.That's great.However,sometimes people borrow money because they have to.We may get into emergencies.So if someday you are in real need of money,dont feel bad to borrow it from your parents or friends,they would be happy to help you.

I mean it is a good thing in some ways this is a good. Not wanting to have to rely on your parents or others for the rest of your life shows maturity. You are ready to eventually go out into the work force, make money and pay for your own stuff. This mentality could also keep you out of piling up lots of credit card debt. If anything make sure to be polite and always thank your parents for any money forced upon you and may be keep it in the bank to acquire some interest, save for a rainy day or that moment that you may need it badly. You are doing fine

We should always remember that no one's money comes without efforts, so we should appreciate them when they decide to lend money to us. Besides, if we borrow money from others, no matter who they are, we should remember to return their money in time, otherwise, a spot may appear in the pure relationship.
