Do you say THANK YOU to your FRIENDS & RELATIVES...

I think it is but appropriate to say Thank You to friends and relatives for all the help and favors they give us. But sometimes because of closeness or proximity and the frequency of times I need to say thank you to them, I tend to overlook saying thank you to friends and relatives. Thanks for the reminder. I will try my best to say thank you to them every time. Thanks a lot.

I always say thank you to any one that helps me with any thing even my kids. If You don't say thank you to friends and relatives they might decide that you don't appreciate the help that they gave you. I think it is always important to say thank you to every one no matter how small a favor or service they do even to just opening the door.

If I'm not thanked for my generosity or thoughtfulness, I can feel disrespected, taken for granted or hurt...or all of the above. I always thank people and if possible return any favours as well. I don't do things for the thanks I get but it's nice to be acknowledged. It's also simply good manners.

Yes I do. I'm trying to teach my kids to say please and thank you to everyone no matter who they are. Whenever I go to someones house I will always say thank you for having us. What I'm really saying is thank you for putting up with us lol. No my kids are not bad they are just full of entergy and people who are not used to that they get worn out fast when my kids are around.

I like to say Thank you no matter who does something good for me. This is my habit. I also tell my son should do the same. When others help you, we should say Thank you and we shall try to see whether we can help them one day. I love China

Yes We are supposed to say thank you to people whoever they are, be it riends , relatives or strangers, we are supposed to say thank you. That is the right way of you showing gratitude to the person concerned. There are many unknown people, who help you when you standing in queues, or while giving shelter to you when you are walking in the rain etc. We should always say Thank you to them. If you helped out some one and did not get a thank you in return won't you feel bad.. I always say thank you to all the people who helped whether they are younger than me or elder. I just don't mind, I keep saying Thank you to all of them.

Spooky... I just came from a discussion where I told a friend she didn't have to thank me. You've made me think about it, and yes, I do show my gratitude to anybody who has helped or supported me, by saying "Thank you". I was brought up to be polite and gracious, no matter whom it was had done something for me. Brightest Blessings, my friend.

Growing up, I was taught that you only said Thank You to people you didn't know very well; like the waitress or the bus driver. If the person is truly a friend, or someone who is supposed to love you and take care of you, you don't need to thank them unless they do something really special for you. However, since I moved to New England, I've discovered they run things a little differently up here, and people think I'm rude. I always want to say it's not rudeness, it's just that I forget that you expect me to do that here.

Yes. I always say thank you to everyone who does something kind or friendly for me. I think it is very polite to say thank you also. alot of people do say we do not have to say it but I always do out of respect for them.

I think its even more important to say thank you to our friends and relatives because they deserve it even more that strangers do. all people really deserve it so I always say thanks or thank you.

Of course I say Thank You to my friends or my relatives! You know, some people just take their friends help or relatives' love for granted,but you know,if you lost them one day,you would realize how important they were for you! So,I don't miss any chance to show my love and appreciation for my friends or my relatives!

hi mnsrwt123, you are right , we need to say thank you to everyone who do a favor for us no matter what help they give.. but sometimes i forgot to say thanks to them especially to my close friends. it thought it was not necessary but the word of thanks may important to others who do us a favor.. so , i will encourage myself to give my appreciation to others in time.

I seldom say "thank you" to my close friends or relatives whenever they give me help. In my heart, I appreciate their assistance. However, I am embarrass to express my emotion for I am afraid to affect our relationship in this case. I believe that the truly friends and relatives need no to say 'thank you' when they help me because it is their resposiblity as my close friends and relatives. Meanwhile, if my close friend ask me to do my help, I will not be hesitate to give them my best help and I need not their gratitute expression. As a friends and relatives, it should do help each other.

I try to thank my family and friends as often as I can for anything they may have done for me.

Most of the time, I will only say thank u to strangers, but never to my realtives or family members or my partner.. haha.. I dunno why but i just cant say it out to them.. hehe

I say thank you to everyone. I like to show my appreciation for everything. I write thank you notes too because I don't think that just a simple verbal thank you is enough. My Mom taught me well and she is proud of me for that and I like making her proud...even at 35 so, I try to be the most appreciative person I can be. It is just the right thing to do!

Yes, I ever say thank you for every one.

Hi there! Yes, I say "thank you" when I appreciate things they have done for me. For me, simple words like thank you can make a big difference to someone.

I often said thank you for my friends,this is a courtesy.

it is very important to say thank you to your friends and relatives, or to anyone for that matter. i even say thank you to that person who serves me my food in restaurants of even gives me my water. it might be passed of as something that is just an everyday phrase but its a good thing to know that people still have the manners to say it to other people. not only does it show that you have good manners and right conduct but it shows people that you respect them. and saying thank you is one of those special ways for you to show other people that they are appreciated by other.
