I don't drive but get about with public transport and until recently cycled everywhere but I'm now too pregnant to fit on my bike.
Planning to meet up with friends tomorrow and when discussing where and when a friend put up that we'd go to her house and she'd pick me up. That means she's driving out to my town, picking me up and taking me back again. I pointed out that I could just get the bus but she's insisted.
I don't mind them offering me a lift but I don't like that she just announced it as part of the arrangements without discussing it with me first.
Also I don't like the idea that they feel I can't meet up without them giving me lifts -this happened with another friend last week too. When I was cycling there wasn't much problem but now it's as though I'm stuck in the house without their help -which I'm not! We have a very good public transport system despite being so rural. I don't want to be a charity case.
So am I being ungrateful? Am I overreading how they perceive me?
