People often go out of their way to help friends, but some favors stretch the limits of reason.

One couple is happy to offer job assistance for their friend, but when she starts expecting a round-the-clock escort, their patience for her antics starts to wear thin.

AITA for not walking my neighbor to work

I (28F) and my husband (26M) both work — I have a morning shift, and he works nights.

We don’t have a car, so we walk to and from work.

They recently helped out a friend in need, and it started off fine.

Our friend, who is married to his cousin, is currently looking for a job, and I’m helping her get one where I work.

Here’s where we might be the AHs.

Until she started with her unreasonable demands.

On my days off, she wants my husband to wake up at 6 AM to walk her to work.

We both said no.

Yes, he walks me to work, but I’d actually prefer if he slept — he just does it because he worries about me.

When they declined, she started making her own problems their problem.

When we told her no, she started saying she’s scared to cross the street alone and might call out of work if we can’t walk her.

AITA for not helping her get to work?

They were happy to lend a hand at first, but not at the expense of their own sleep and sanity.

What did Reddit think?

It’s clear to this commenter that their friend crossed a line.

Everyone has their strengths, but resourcefulness and grit are both needed skills in the workplace.

If this is how she thanks someone for doing her a favor, then it sure doesn’t bode well for the future.

The request is just plain unreasonable, no matter how you look at it.

Some favors bring people closer together, but this one threatens to rip the friendship apart entirely.

She’ll have to put one foot in front of the other eventually — with or without them.
