It is quite usual for people to ask others for favors. They often begin by doing something nice for you before asking the magic question: Could you do something for me? People usually respond to simple favors with generosity and even offer extra help. However, there are some favors people dislike being asked. Some of these are requests for loans of money, personal hygiene items, vehicles, even pets. These could also be inconvenient requests like asking someone to drive you to the airport when he already is late for work, or asking someone to take care of your pet when he has so much to do. When these things happen, relationships often go sour.
