If you cant ask your friends for help then who can you ask?
thats what friends are for.. for good times and bad times..
JESUS im quoting lional ritchie. hahahahah
but asking a friend for help is not killing the friendship..
the friend would know if you could help ,thats why he is asking..
BEST friends.. good friends.. do you have the cash to give?
if you have money why not?? he is a good friend...
a casual friend like the onei n question.. well thats alittle different..
of course can you afford it? and do you believe you will see it agian? |

I'm from Canada. If you're dying hospitals are free, if you're homeless and starving welfare is free. If a friend is going to lose his nice big home and his car because he can't manage his life, friend or not, that's his problem. If a friend's life depended on money, well fine, otherwise no. I believe in self suffiency and wouldn't ask another, nor would I like them to ask me. |

emmm well, so what your saying is.. if you had 1 million dollars and your friend was in a tough situation and you could help him/her you wouldnt?
you would just let him and his family out on the street becuase you dont want lend your best friend 10.000 dollars to pay the bank until he fixes it up? you would just say sorry?..
emmm thats cold... humans make mistakes and bad luck comes down on all of us..
I guess you wouldnt even buy your mate a burger cuz the money machine was closed right??/ thats his problem not yours....  |

I'm not that cold.
If I couldn't make a mortgage payment I would find another option rather than ask my friends. If there is no other option I would have to rethink my life: "Can I afford my house?" (My friends shouldn't have to afford my house.)
My friends and I have generous relationships. There is a big differnce between being asked and just giving. There is also a big difference between small money situations and serious financial problems which I should have clarified, my fault. |
