I believe in giving favours, rather than asking for it. If somebody asks me for any favour and he is dear to me, I always try to help him. I avoid asking favours from my friends, untill and unless I am hard pressed for asking favours. Nonetheless, I think if friends have good and mature level of understanding, any one of them can ask for favours...because it might be easier to ask for a favour from a friend, in comparison to others. Good Post indeed!

Yeah me too...If I find her/him so depressed, even if we listen to them I know we enlighten their feelings. Sweet little things we share to our friends are like diamonds to them...

Only in times of emergency, and mostly depending on the profession of my friends, I do ask and in return, I offer my services to them. Hence I have no problem in getting the help and in the meantime, I too devote some time for my friend's work.

As long as it is still manageable I won't ask any help from my friends. If ever there its on emergency cases wherein I need some assistance. Bothering them in useless situation is not proper and it is a waste of their productive time.

Sometimes If I can really need their help. But as much as possible If I can manage through my own I will. I'm a self reliance person and I don't want to ask somebody's help specially in financial matters. I do ask them for some advice that can help me to decide but of course the decision is still mine.

I usually ask favors from my best friend and thats about it the only favors I ask him is stuff like taking me to blockbuster to return a video or video game because I dont have a car and my parents are usually to busy so I ask him to take me and he usually does also I ask him for money when I need money for food and I havnt gotten my check but I always pay him back.

If I need a favor then yes I ask- If I don’t then I don’t ask- I will do anything I can for them- My true friends know what I need prior to me asking and always offer to help out- I’m not dependent on them- but it’s great to have people you can count on!

I seldom ask my friends for a favor. Personally I think that if I want to do it correctly I should do it myself or at least I can watch my friend I asked for a favor to make sure my friend does the right thing. But mostly I end up in chaotic situation and I don't remember that I have friends that can help me...

I hardly ask favors from my buddies, and friends unless I am desperate and at the end of my wits. I do not usually like to request help from others as I would feel that I am bothering them, and using their time for free. I will not take help for granted because I have know of people who uses friends more than treasuring them. I feel that personally, we should do our outmost best, and even though friends can be there to help, we would be owing much gratitude to them when they decide to take out their hand and help us. Otherwise, I would rather my friend initiates to help me rather than me asking them for a favor.

whenever i needed help, as long as i can manage it, i never asked anyone to help me. and then, when i needed a friend to help, then i ask. and good thing is, they never turned me down.

Sometimes I have to ask a favor from my good friends because I am not that capable of doing dealing with everything myself. I am so glad that friends are my best asset. Of course I help them as well in return for their favor.
