The title should read: Would you ever ask to borrow this? We’re currently travelling abroad with a few other families for half-term via a specialist travel agency. We didn’t know others before but everyone is lovely (this definitely helps as it’s an adventure type of couple of weeks where you inevitably end up sharing a lot of time in quite close quarters with others). About five days in, away from the civilisation and the usual shops, DH noticed a fellow travelling Dad using a small pair of scissors. This reminded him that he’s not packed his and since DH’s nails have grown a bit, he decided to borrow the said scissors to trim his nails whilst on the trip. The other guy seemed a bit surprised first but kindly shared his scissors. TBH, I was surprised too as I’d never dream of asking to borrow any personal grooming thing unless it’s family or a close personal friend. DH seems genuinely surprised that I’m surprised! AIBU to think that it was not a good idea by DH to ask to borrow scissors in these circumstances?
