Offering gas money....to do? or not to do?

04/22/2009

title.

Wednesdays are always boring, i have two classes American lit and Music...yawn. I did however meet a new friend in my music class. Ive mentioned her before..johanna. She a really cool girl but shes very much an instant...i dont wanna say clinger but she attaches quick. Like we whent to philly last night for the Philly orchestra and it was me and her uncle mike, who is so awsome i was laughing the whole time. We had so much fun..But i have to drive to her house to pick up her and her uncle bc they both dont drive. So it was a 45 min ride to the house and like 15 to the train station. They never offered gas money wich in my opinionj is kinda rude. But w.e. Well today Johanna asked me for a ride home and i couldnt say no so im like yea thats fine. Well shes 30 min from school, then 45 min for me to get home. I eventually lied to get outa it bc 1. thats mad for and an hour and 15 min of driving and 2. She didnt offer gas money...

I have a friend sara who lives like 20 min from school and my house. I take her home sometimes when i see her waiting for the bus. She throws money at her bc i usualy refuse it. Not bc weve been friends for years but bc its not that far and i like taking her home. I take the money sometimes but not usualy without a fight lol.

But if i have to go that far out of my way to take someone home who ive only known for like 3 month i want some money. I was thinking last night that maybe they didnt think of it so today im like im sure shel offer. Idk if im being stiff or what, but seriously 5 bucks would be nice its like a quarter tank of gas.....

I'm always cool to do a favour for a friend, but you shouldn't be out of pocket for doing so.

GOSH, YO - IT'S SILLY TO SAY 'YEAH THAT'S FINE' AND THEN LIE TO GET OUT OF IT. WHY NOT SIMPLY SAY 'NO, SORRY, THAT'S REALLY OUT OF MY WAY'. IF PEOPLE ARE A BIT CLINGY LIKE THAT, IT IS FAR BETTER TO ESTABLISH SOME BOUNDARIES STRAIGHT AWAY. OFTEN THEY APPRECIATE IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE A GOOD SENSE OF BOUNDARIES THEMSELVES.

if i do something like that and it's a continuous thing, once a month or so i'll say "hey, do you think you could chip in a little for gas?" and they usually don't mind. if they do then i tell them "okay, that's cool, but i'm running low on cash so i can't do this again until i get paid."

I picked my friend up and took her to school and home - and she just gave me 5 bucks a week - its not unreasonable to ask

I think an easy way to ask without asking is to say, "I would, but I don't have enough gas and I don't have any extra cash...." If she doesn't offer, don't feel guilty for not taking her.
