For Felix's sake, glad that he is not a smoking hot female, otherwise she'll be drunk everyday for not saying no to "hey can I buy you a drink?"

I just want to avoid getting in trouble rather than to be involved in any stressful argument.

That's why I said I would keep silence in that situation..

If you have any plastidip parts, yes let them drive it lol.

Don't let idiots stress you out. Life is too short and there are far too many.

Just politely tell them, "I'm sorry but I don't let anyone drive my car". If they ask again, just get in your car and leave. That is, if you are seriously concerned about the situation.

Once I permitted a guy (he was a 'friend' but actually I didn't like that much) to drive my Z when he implied to want to drive mine. He was a guy who had bad temper, and also was selfish and stubborn that he never gives up what he wants until I say 'yes' to him.

And what happened was that.. some weeks later I got a ticket by mail to my home that he violated a special lane with my Z, (an express lane..?? Now I cannot remember exactly what it was.. it happened several years ago), and it took about one month for me to make him pay for that. And even after that payment it did not seem that he really sincerely reflected on himself.

So then I cut out our relationship. I felt bitter..

Do you really think anyone like this deserves your sympathy for denying their request? Tell them to

or remove yourself from the situation. Neither one is difficult.

Sounds to me someone needs to grow a pair and simply say "NO".

I just re-read this. Are you saying you gave into implied peer pressure? Like he didn't even ask to drive your car directly and you still felt obligated to let him drive it?

If so, you just need to get over it. Don't let people push you around. You don't always have to be the nice guy.

This is the same look I give them as well...

Jesus Christ guys you all sound like a bunch of nut huggers contemplating the minute details of how to approach a simple question. There is less debate over the KKKlinton foundation/email scandal!
The question gets asked, do you trust them or not? Answer accordingly. There is no need for you to go all Plato/Socrates or creepy guy blank psycho stare.

DeliriousClam · 09-07-2016, 01:24 PM

Hey. The only reason I give the creepy psychopath stare is because I am a creepy psychopath.
