How Do I Tell Her "No" Politely?
I have an old friend who asked me for a ride to school at least twice this week. Now, it wouldn't be a problem, except the school is closer to me than I am to her. Literally, she lives thirty minutes away, so she's out of the way. I did it one time before, and I told her I wouldn't do it again because she lived so far out of the way. Now she is taking my kindness for weakness! Where I live it is essential that one has a car to get around--she's been here for going on four years and still doesn't have a car! Her boyfriend used to be her chauffeur, but they recently broke up, and I don't want to be a replacement. How can I tell her "no" politely without sounding like a total b-word??

My grandfather always said to me to remember, "a friend in need is a friend in deed." Help your friend as that is what friends do. She is in a tough spot. Ask her to help with fuel costs and relish in the fact your doing something no one else can or will do.
