Folks, this is a weird one!
Sure, we see all kinds of strange stories, but this one is right at the top of the heap when it comes to odd behavior.
A woman explained why she’s pretty annoyed by a friend of hers who doesn’t seem to have a whole lot of self-awareness…and she did something pretty drastic that proves it!
Read on and see what you think about this situation.
AITA for not giving rides anymore?
“I have a friend who was independent until semi-recently.
She got laid off from her job in 2024 and since hasn’t been looking at all to work or do anything.
I wouldn’t work either if I could afford to live without it but I cannot.
She sounds like a good friend…
I’ve always been one to offer rides to my buds or be the driver anytime there’s a trip or activity because I genuinely enjoy driving.
I typically give this friend rides all the time especially since we only live a mile from one another.
Okay, that’s kind of weird…
Out of the blue, she told me just a couple days ago that she sold her car since I give her rides anywhere she needs anyways, so it’s a cash bonus for her now that she doesn’t have to drive because she will rely solely on me…
Uhhh, what?
I mentioned that it’s good she has more money now for Lyft and uber and ended at that, and quite frankly, I don’t think I’ll ever give her a ride again for setting that heavy expectation on me out of nowhere.
AITA?”

How weird!
This seems like the kind of thing you’d run by someone first, don’t you think?
Good grief!
Her friend sounds a bit strange, if we’re being honest…
