What to do about lending money?

A couple of friends keep asking me to borrow money, several times this year so far. They have always paid me back, usually on time and usually it's small amounts (under $100) but I am starting to feel like an ATM machine. I don't want to be petty but I don't like being in that position. Am I worrying about it too much and not being a good friend?

    loaning money is the easiest way to loose friends. Just tell them politely that you cant because what little you do have you need for Christmas.
