We all have the experiences of borrowing money from friends or lending some to them. The dilemma we always face is whether the relationship between friends would be ruined by this. To agree or disagree with it, I believe, is largely depends on the situation. If the amount of money you are asking for is pretty huge, it may be not appropriate. However, if the amount of money is not so substantial, say, not more than one month’s worth of salary, no damage would be caused on your friendship. In my experience, I totally disagree with that borrowing money from a friend can harm or damage the friendship and I’ll explore my opinions further in the following discussion. What are friends for? Friends are those who help you out when you get into trouble, support and encourage you when you are frustrated. As a proverb says, “Prosperity makes friends, adversity tries them.” Actually, if my friend fell awkward or uncomfortable when I borrow money from him/her, I would conceive that I don’t deserve his/her trust, and maybe he/she just doesn’t think we are friends. Think about it, how many times you feel you’ve put in an uncomfortable position when a person you deemed to be a friend asks you for money? And just look around, borrowing and lending between friends is such a common phenomenon. Have their friendship been ruined by this? Absolutely not! Another reason I oppose this argument is that I see this kind of behavior differently. Rather than damaging friendship, it would otherwise strengthen (cement) the relationship between friends. Borrowing and lending between friends is a way of demonstrating trust and intimacy. Imagine you’re involved in a serious situation, for instance, you Mom just had a severe heart attack, and you are in need of considerable amount of money for the surgery which you can’t afford. And finally a friend of your lend you the money to get the surgery done. How would you feel? I bet you definitely would appreciate what your friend has done to you. And the friendship would go further. Finally, if the money that has been borrowed get paid back in time, why bother that would bring problems in the relationship? And even if you don’t get the back because your friend forgets it, just remind him/her. I believe real friends won’t deal with it as a serious problem. In a word, considering the benefits to the friendship it can offer and the experience of dealing with this issue, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to borrow money from friends or lend money to them. |
