There's a big difference between "hey, can you give me a ride to the store to pick up this large thing?" vs "hey can you give me a ride to work every day".

- renewiltord 4y agoOkay, but I'm not talking about "Hey, can you give me a ride to work every day?" but "Hey, can you give me a ride to work?" every day. I think this might be a cultural difference, though, because I live with two close friends and they ask me this one often and I have no problem doing it or not based on whether I can. If it's a small deal, I might accelerate my morning routine so I can drop them off on my way to work. If I can't, I usually just say so. I have a few different friend groups and I'm conscious of different cultural mores, though. The group where this is common has a certain low-social-distance norm. In any case, I have lots of close friends and I usually see people lament a lack of any, so I think it's better to do what I do rather than what others do. But cultural differences are cultural differences.
