I’ve never stolen anything in my life either, and I never would. I think the main reason for this is that I have too much of a fear of getting caught, and would hate to be branded a thief. I’d much rather work and save up for anything I wanted, rather than have a criminal record, or even if I got away with it, you are still left with a sense of guilt, and you will eventually get caught anyway.Stealing from family and friends is a big NO for me as well! Then again people, who do steal from family and friends, normally have some sort of problem, such as drug, or drink dependences, which is no excuse, but makes me thankful, that I am not in their desperate position, where they need these things regardless of the consequences. To me there is no positive about stealing, just earn things for yourself! Then you can proudly walk round with what you own, knowing, that you have it purely because you worked for it.
