I recently started a night class which I attend once a week. The college I attend at is in a large town which is situated in a county mainly made up of rural towns and villages so many of the students commute up to 50 miles to attend here.
I travel 40 miles by car and another girl in the class travels from the same direction but is only 20 miles away.
On the first night one of the other students loudly suggested that I give public transport girl a lift home As she has to wait 40 minutes on a bus after the class. Put on the spot and not wanting to seem mean, I said I didn't mind taking her home that night, but she ended up leaving before me and never mentioned waiting for a lift.
This week, the student suggested it again, I overheard her saying loudly and pointedly that "it's a shame one of the other girls wont give you a lift to class and back to save you the hassle of getting a bus and waiting about". Public transport girl just shrugged it off.
The thing is, it is sort of on my road home, but it would add about half an hour onto an already long journey and as I live so out of the way I do like to get other things done when I'm in the town if I can make spare time before the class so wont always be travelling at set times.
The girl who takes the bus has never really mentioned wanting a lift herself and in any case she knew what the travel would be like when she signed up for the class.
AIBU to think the pushy one should just keep her nose out and stop trying to guilt trip me into offering this girl a lift?
