Did any of your friends treat you or your things irresponsibly?

i know how you feel,ive been there too. my college friend always borrow clothes from me and will not return if for five to six months.she will have the courage to return it if i will totally freak out and really mad at her. and after all i still lend my clothes to her and she borrowed it last january and still with her. i did was i didnt care about the clothes but what matters most is the friendship its just a thing. i just hope someday she'll learn to care about me. i love my friend so im trying to understand her.

Sorry to hear that. I would feel crummy if my friends or friend did that. I have a friend who is high maintenance and bosses me around. She just makes me feel as if i have to be under her direct orders or as if i work under her. Have you explained to her that you needed the money back? If she knew that she needed to owe you back, then she should have done so. I guess she was ignorant. I probably have friends that are like that, but I guess we have to forgive them. Some people do stupid things But then I dunno, it depends on how purposely they did it or the situation. I would just ignore her or probably tell her what you feel. But I had a friend who borrowed my shirt during 6th grade while after graduation she told another friend to hold her tape recorder along with my stuff. After graduation, I didn't want the other friend to have responsibility to this friends tape recorder, so yeah she gave it to me and said here i dont want to hold this. Then my friend said she left her shirt on my my mailbox. I left her tape recorder inside a package on front of my door, so she can walk by and pick it up. But I called her on the phone before doing so, and it was hard to get reach of her, so i guess i told her mom. But since i left the package with my friends name and address on the door, someone took the package since my uncle stayed at my house while i was on vacation...now guess what? i was accused from that friend's brother and mother regarding this after my trip to vacation. i owe 50 for that stupid taperecorder radio thing and the mom and her came over my house to pick up the check... but i didn't get paid for my shirt that she carelessly put on to the mailbox. I hate those years.. i've always been manipulated in some way with this person and other person.

I would have been very upset, and may have even decided she wasn't that great of a friend. I have had one friend who I let borrow books, her mother put some books of mine outside and they got wet. Though she told me to come by and get them, she was aware that I may not be able to come so soon to get them. They got soaked and she didn't seem to mind. I don't mind anymore, but the blow of it was still the same.

Sadly there are a few times that this has happened in my life. It is rather unfortunate when friends do this, when they do not treat the belongings of other people with the respect that they should in fact. There are a lot of reasons why I don't like lending things out to people and after a few times, it has caused me to be turned off to actually loaning my things out to people. All it takes is a few bad experiences to be rather guarded with your things. I still have CDs from High School that I know I'll never see ever again in the rest of my life. There are just a lot of people out there who really do have little to no respect for the personal possessions of other people. It is rather disturbing in a number of ways. That's why I have completely stopped lending my things out. Just too many bad experiences in the end.

This is a terrible thing - I would have been so angry with my friend for treating my belongings as if they were her own! Its not right to do something like that with something that does not belong to you. I have also had a similar situation - I lent a friend something for her to use in her medical practical exam, it was a stethoscope and very expensive. She then managed to break it and gave it back to me thinking that I wouldn't even notice! To this day she still won't admit that she was the one who broke it. Makes me so angry!

Oh! That is such a bad friend I should say. If I borrow something from a friend I would make sure I use it or read it right away so she will not have to wait too long for me to return it. And didn't she realized that she was doing a bad thing to you? It is totally heart-breaking. I do have friends like yours. They borrow books and not return them. So from then on I didn't seem to care if they feel bad about me not lending them my books because I have learned that doing good to many of them doesn't work. but I have friends whom I know are both responsible to friendship and my property. And they are the kind of friends that I need to keep.

My friends are calling as a so responsible person. In my college also, everyone have so much confidence on my works and on my words, because i can stand on my words.
