borrowing money from a friend will not be a problem if you pay. the only problem lies when you don't pay when your friend really needs the money.
money shouldn't be an issue between friends, lovers or family. if money is, then the relationship is not that strong. money should not harm the friendship. it's not worth it.

From my viewpoint,money also can establish a good relationship,if you very necessary,don't hesitate to borrow from your friend,but you have to return him when you have money!!

you are right, money can establish a good relationship,
but maybe it's only on the business.

I dont think it should hurt your friend unless theyre tight on money and you dont pay them back.

what you came to know is correct upto an extent.what i want to say is borrowing money from freind will never harms friendship untill you return the amount which you have taken in correct time.if you unable to do that then it will makes problems in your freindship that's for sure.so if you need borrow it but be sure while telling the time when you will return and see that you will return it on time.

oh well.. it depends if the one who borrowed knows how to return. i had borrowed money from my friends only on the times that i need money the most. and in return of their kindness i also let them borrow money to me... borrowing is somehow a way to help a friend and save her/him from being worried how to het money....
:) thats all i can say.. hihhi.. :)

right, I have told one of my friend, "Do you need money", when she had her wallet stolen. When she someday after that talked about those days, she always mentioned what I have told to her.

hello jamesarmstrong!I don't think borrowing money from a friend can harm friendship but borrowing money from a friend and never paid back would!If you need money for a program,ask from a friend but tell him/her you'll pay her back as soon as you get the cash.If he/she says no then you'll have to find other options.Goodluck!hope this helps;)

i don't think it is right that borrowing money from a friend will harm the friendship.the friends should help each other.including the money.you can borrow not a lot money from your friend or invite he/she take part in the program in the money.if you don't want to borrow money from them ,you can supply the"VC",now "VC'is welcome and popular.you aslo can borrow money from the bank.these are my suggestions,Good luck,my friend.

It is funny. Why cannot you borrow from your friend? Especially if you are a student or a new comer to the place, who is going to lend you?
In my opinion, you should be clearl about the time when you are going to return his money. You can borrow money from him because he/she is going to trust you easily. You know the value of trust...you should be extremely careful to return the money to the friend well before the time. Tell him clearly that you will not be able ti return the money only after some time and if he/she will need the money before this, better not to take the help from that friend because he will be in need of help then...

i think this qoute is best to make you think twice
A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED
we ought help from our friends bcoz we do help them too
help is not a big deal for a friend
if friends dnt help then who will pull u out of troubles
those r time we make friends for
i think friends r our 2nd family.nd there is no need to shy with them in any matter

borrowing money can harm your freindship or may be not..... It depends on the nature of your freind and how close he/she is to you????
if your freind values money lot more than freinds and other things, then borrowing money from him/her will surely harm your freindship!
but if your freind is realy helpful and caring there would not be any problem in asking him for money!
so, ask a freind for money but the right one!

I don't think so.As we know, a friend in need is a friend indeed. A real friend will give a hand when you are encontered with difficulties. Why it will harm your friend? You won't repay him or her? Trust is an indispensible ingredient in friendship.

it depends on whether you are familiar with your friends. If the friend is very close and you will pay back the money within the time you promise, i think it is ok. However, if you have any other ways to solve the problem, you had better not borrow money from your friend~

I don't think that is absolutness,real friend should give you hand when you in trouble time.So borrow money from you friend when you in trouble time is normal.Of course,eveybody must keep one's faith at first.If you defection of this.Your view I agreement.
