Borrowing & Lending
1. Have you ever borrowed books from others?
As I have said, I have a circle of friends who are bookworms, which means I’m in the habit of borrowing some comic books from my friends to while away the time during days off or just to catch up on things in the Manga world.
2. Have you ever borrowed money from others?
Yes, I have. When I was in high school, I was frequently short of cash and often asked my friends to lend me small sums of money, but now I have got a job and make quite a bundle! so I feel little or no need.
3. Do you like to lend things to others?
Truth be told, we’d better be too easygoing and lend stuff to others. What I mean is that the recipient might become over reliant on the thing he or she borrows and ask for more next time. Only when others are in dire straits that we should lend a helping hand; otherwise, they should get to grips with the problems on their own.
4. How do you feel when people don’t return things they borrowed from you?
For me, it’s a real let-down when my friends won’t return what they borrow from me, going back on their promise!. I don’t have an intention of reminding them that they owe me money or the related things, but expect them to be conscious of the duty to pay things back.
5 Do people feel embarrassed when they request the things back from friends?
My ears often turn red out of embarrassment when I ask things back from my friends. It’s natural because I don’t want to undermine the relationship we are having and requesting stuff back can hurt others’ pride and self-respect.
