Not sure if always giving notes to a friend is helping or hurting…

I have a friend who is always asking for my lecture notes. For the past few times, I’ve given it to her but on some level I don’t feel like she deserves them, especially when I’ve spent so much time making them. Yet, I do want to adopt a mentality that really embraces sharing and giving when others are in need (spirit of Help.com?) and I really don’t know if I’m in a position to judge. Apparently she lost her textbook and her notes are poorly written so she’s asking for mine. Any thoughts on whether or not I should give them to her?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, helping out a friend is always a nice thing to do, as long as it’s not disturbing your study time then I don’t think you should have a problem with it, unless shes not really your friend..Anyways, sharing is caring(:

You already know the answer or you wouldn’t be here asking us. Make it clear that you are expecting them to give YOU notes from now on so they better be keeping them!
