Everyone has something that's just too personal to share...what is your something? Mine is: underwear, bathing suits and razors. My sister wont use a towel that someone else used or nail clippers/nail files.

for me its using someone else toothbrush! i think that is pretty nasty and have only done it when forced to do so (such as losing or misplacing your own toothbrush.) but i still think its gross!

EWWW I'm gonna have to add that one to my list. On the subject of toothbrushes - it drives me bonkers and ickies me out when my sister brushes her teeth in the kitchen and talks to us while she does it.

Underwear I wouldn't ever want to share. Razors I wouldn't want to share either but wouldn't mind sharing with my fiance. Toothbrush is the same. I can share my tooth brush with my fiance but no one else. Im also the same with deodorant. Those are a few.

Guess I'm just an old boot because when anyone asks me anymore to borrow anything and I do mean anything I just simply say, " I am really sorry but I just don't loan out my stuff anymore." I loaned out some records one time LP's from the 50's to the 80's and I never got them back that did it!!! The only thing I lent out after that was a chain turkey lifter. It works like nothing else to lift a turkey out of a roaster. I lent it to my so called sister in law and when I asked for it she said forget it, it was hers and was never mine. As they say that was the straw that broke the camels back. No More. To add to your list however the thing that makes me go ewww grose is when I see people sharing deordorant. EWWWwww.

Ewwww that is gross (thats something I've never seen people share or...ask to borrow) I've had people staying over that have forgotten theirs but I always have mini ones that are new for guests just in case. I can see how not getting things back would be frustrating - my family has always written names on things we lend or...well with certain family members around these days we write our name or initals on things we dont want stolen too.

Mine would have to be my heel exfoliator and my toothbrush! My foot scrubber smells a mess right after I use it, so I make sure to wash it. I don't want your foot funk on there too! And I don't care if we've been together 77 years and we've done everything there is to do under the sun! Don't use my toothbrush!
