I learned if you use it in a sentence singularly, you use it with more than one. Examples: <br>
I went to the store/Tom and I went to the store.<br>
Could you make me a sandwich?/ Could you make Mary and me a sandwich?<br>
<br>
I hope it’s ok to ask this on this list serve. It is driving me crazy! I mean teachers are using the I and me wrong (according to me)!!!<br>
Thank you!!<br>
