Let’s go through each sentence one by one. We need to decide whether to use
I or
me.
Remember:
- Use
I when the word is doing the action (subject of the sentence).
- Use
me when the word is receiving the action (object of the sentence).
A trick: Try removing the other person and see if “I” or “me” sounds right.
