Do you mind people lending your things?

[Sharon]

Not being funny but I HATE IT I hate when ******* chavs ask to play on your phone, when people ask to borrow your jumper.

I've been volunteered by my mum to ******* lend my CAMERA to my great grandad for TWO MONTHS I'm actually fuming. If it so much comes back as broke or lost he is buying me a camera of my choice.

I don't ask to borrow things either. I always get asked to let someone on my BlackBerry on Facebook, I've always said no and made excuses.

[Alkaz]

Yes I do. I bought my dad a satnav a couple of years ago and everyone seems to want to borrow it and it really annoys me how they just casually ask n sometimes don't bother bringing it back, my dad goes n gets it. I know it's not mine put I paid for it so yeah.

[Aidenn]

No because i generally make myself clear, something happens to it, their replacing it, and if i dont trust someone they dont get it in the first place,

[Triz]

I just say no if it is someone who I don't know/like or trust.
However what annoys me is when I give (my phone for example) to a friend, and then they start playing a game, a crowd forms around him and my phone as he is playing.. someone whom I don't like asks if he can play, and my "friend" gives it straight to him without even asking me first.

That is what annoys me!
In the rare event that I do ask to borrow someones possessions, if then someone asks me "for a go" I either say go and ask "NAME HERE" or I ask them myself if they can have a go before I even think about giving it away!
I also don't make excuses... I tell them straight.

I remember once when I was at school many moons ago, someone who I didn't like asked if they could play snake on my phone (Yes I had a Nokia 3310) - I said no.. They questioned me with "why not?" so I told them straight with "because I don't like you nor do I trust you, I think your a complete *censored* and if you think I'm letting you have my phone then you can think again" Which evidently lead to us exchanging fists.. Well I say "exchanging" I think he only hit me twice, though I can't be sure if he was hitting me or touching me.

I don't mind lending things to friends and relatives, so long as they look after whatever it is and return it in due time. I hate it when people lend things on my behalf and without my permission, however.

I don't like lending stuff to my siblings because they return it damaged or something and it's annoying :@

[GommeInc]

I don't really mind if people somehow lend my stuff out to other, provided I know them and can trust them. I don't mind people borrowig my stuff either, but I won't let people on my phone or computer unless I trust them. They might find my stash of gentleman's literature.

I don't mind at all, infact often I suggest it - one friend owes me around £57 at the moment, another £7 and his girlfriend the same.

[Jssy]

Nope I hate it lol. People never lend me things anyway. It's different with phones, letting each other on them etc but items - no way.

I very occasionally lend clothes to my friends but they give the stuff back so it's ok. I don't mind lending small sums of money to friends either, like 20 quid here, 10 quid there as long as they give it back and my friends are generally fine with paying back money.
