I don't mind lending things to my friends but I don't lend things to people I don't like or know that much about.
I'd never let someone lend my camera for two months :S What the **** is he doing lending it for that long, making a Calendar Girls 2.0?
I lend people money all the time, it's really the only thing people ever want to lend off me.
I dont mind lending if I know and trust them, but if someone else passes is on to someone I dont trust then that really annoys me.
This really. Sometimes I do offer things to my close friends.
Also this. Possessions mean more to me than money :/ Especially at my school, money is usually evened out if it's leant, not given back as such something else is bought for the person, it usually involves food, booze or *** if I'm honest :/
It depends what they're asking to lend.
Things like games and dvds I wont lend out, I'v kept mine scratch free for so long :P People always ask to borrow my head phones and they're one thing I will never lend out because I don't want them in other peoples ears :P
I let people use my phone to make calls, aslong as they're not on it for ages xD
I don't lend anything out long term. If they borrow something, I want it back the same day.
I don't let anyone use or borrow my things unless I know I can trust them haha. Done it so many times and end up regretting it. I used to lend out so many DVDs for example (I'm a boxset nerd for EVERYTHING) and the boxes would come back damaged, the discs would be scratched and it'd break my little heart.
I hate it when people ask though cos I feel horrible saying no...
Generally, I don't mind people borrowing my things as I'd like to think that if I ever needed something from someone else, they'd let me use it. As long as I get whatever it is back in a clan and working order. My only exception to this is plates, mugs, bowls, pans etc. I've found that in my uni accommodation, people borrowed these things and never cleaned them so they aren't to touch them any more.
If I trust them and know them well then I don't mind lending them things but I don't think I could ever lend out something such as my camera like that. I have a bad habit of lending out books though and then forgetting to ask for them back and then getting them returned to me like 6 months later :P
I hate it when people borrow my stuff though and lend it to other people without asking me, that's just annoying and rude.
I don't really mind if people want to borrow my stuff really...
