In the past i have had very bad luck with loaning out my belongings. lots of times i know i will never see it again. or i have to ask many times. Jesus fan has a point. I suppose most do not mean to keep it.{some do}I usually hope no one asks. I really do not want to be selfish. but i hate losing things i bought and someone else has it.

I don't really think that most people when they borrow really mean to hang on to the item. I think they just get busy with their lives and forget. But it doesn't make it right.
