Hello guys,

Please have you ever been asked "what do you want from me?" by a lady that you just wanted to help with no strings attached?

I was driving home yesterday after work and a lady (average looking) flagged me to stop and i decided to stop and gave her a lift. I asked her where she was going and she mentioned a bustop before mine and i said lucky you... We had a lil chat as i drove her and she seemed really fun, We got to her bustop and i offered to be taking her to work in the morning since she stays close to my place. Then suddenly her face changed and she asked the annoying question "Oga what do you want from me?".. at that point i was dumbfounded and sad at same time. But i had to quickly smile and said "nothing" then i drove off.

For me i find it sad, a lot of people are not used to good people doing good things without wanting anything in return.

How do you feel and react when asked that question?

Please share yours

About the same thing happened to me today.. I was headed to Central business area in Abuja today,I saw a lady that looked familiar, I was looking at her and she was looking at me(she had put on little weight) suddenly I realised she used to be a receptionist at my daughters school, we chatted briefly and I realised she was going same direction as mine. While in the car we got talking and she said she had to quit working in the school for another Job as a marketer with one of the banks but that it wasn't what she expected. I really felt for her as she narrated what she was going through, my mind kept going back and forth as I thought of how to assist. Before she dropped I asked her for her number as my wife's place of work usually ask her for recommendations when there are vacancies. My thought was I would recommend her.
Aunty started acting funny when I asked for number,next thing I heard was Sir how is your wife doing,how is your daughter all because of number o.

I know it looked out of character for her to have reacted like that but you must understand how this looks. This is the likely format married men/men in general use to get side chic. Offer to help in exchange for body warmth. And some ladies do not find it funny having to go down that route.

If you had told her your intentions before asking for her number, I'm sure her reaction would have been different.

Good luck on your next "free ride" cool

Its logical,

She's right to ask that question cux she's human who must have thought you wanted to have something in return of the everyday favour, which is very rare...

You can't blame her for the question.

In all honesty, it was too fast offering her rides to work every morning. Like it's not even up to 24hrs you have known this person. Some other ladies might not go direct but would definitely have it at their subconscious that you want something from them most def, maybe not now but definitely later.

Actually young girls think you're helping them cause you want to bleep them and 95% of the time, they're right. Guys hardly give lifts to girls they don't plan on seeing again/bleeping.

Oin grin

There are two sides to the story.
1. who said you didnt want anything ? (stop lying to yourself) from the way you described her its obvious you wanted more than a 'string' you actually wanted a tango. and she was quick to see through your act. grin

But then again it might be you don't really want anything in return and just doing it out of your own 'goodwill' grin grin But you wouldn't blame her for the way she acted, you know it this shithole we are not used to good things without giving something in return so she was shocked by your offer and asked you that question.

I also feel you you didn't handle the situation well you running off would make her feel she was correct afterall that you really wanted something from her. If truly you didn't want anything you could have just explained to her and stop her train of thoughts before it could go further.

Smartxyz... you need to be Streetsmart. In general... in the society... men do not do a woman a favour without wanting something in return. You picked her up... very kind of you... never mind a bit risky... had a good chat ... she was comfortable with you and I'm sure considered you a nice guy seeing that you showed no signs of wanting anything in return... no contact info... no asking if she had a man etc..... the reason why she was happy. All that you messed up by asking to pick her up.... and that's the question that spoilt everything because she would now believe afterall... you want something in return... just like the other men. You should've said nothing... maybe she would've asked... or... you simply note the time you picked her up and most likely she will be there again waiting for a ride and will have no problem hopping in. Should you see her today... same scenario.... she may not want to hop in because she believes you want something. Always look first in the mirror bro before pointing fingers.

Ok lemme say.
I usually park on my way to work to buy food.
Of course , others come also both guys and ladies.
Let me say, I used to carry two guys who are staff to work atimes like twice or thrice a week. I personally don't like the habit of someone following me everyday (u have to tell me ur intention from the beginning that u want to start following me if u want it every day else I'll reroute my journey when it's becoming obvious.).
This day after buying food, this lady whose office is close to mine (I do see her sometimes at the food spot) asked to follow me ( the bike who brought her couldn't wait to take her down while buying food -i think we were few inline on that day). I liked the lady just platonic oh.
So I said she should hop in.
Started the car, put the air conditioning...(I don'tt drive without aircon unless I'm just reparking. But that day my intention of putting the aircon was to impressed because my car is always neat in and out.
When I got to my place a place just in between mine and hers so I could get to the parking lot, she said I should drive her to their other gate. I told her I had a meeting and was in a hurry and maybe next time.
Then I drove off to the not-to- far parking lot when she came down.
Guess she didn't take it well cos she declined when I offered to drop her next time.
I wasn't even bothered though I had to do something official at her office a few weeks later.
I'm married so nothing was ever going to happen

well op take heart and stop giving girls free rides to give the impression that u are a knight in shining armour

This is why some.men become misogynists. You guys are so complex. A nice man will quickly arrange this with you once they find out you live around before you even offer it to them. The reason why we call each other bro is because we're usually in the same hussle. The whole empathy in the case of a lady is that sometimes they want to be reassured that you're a nice guy first so they don't land in trouble, then when you try to show that, they get offended. It may be that he talked to her in a condescending manner which is a different case. There is just nothing wrong with this offer, we are all sisters and brothers at some point. I have offered people a ride and they were just in disbelief that they'd rather look around thinking I was asking for directions or something. We have forgotten what it means to be caring to each other. And some of us are even Christians

Remember those days when I was in school.

We would be walking inside heavy rain and one woman wrapper guy will just stop in his car, pick the girl and go.

The girl will not even say, please can you also help these guys too? The rain is heavy.
She will balance on the seat and face front.

It happened a number of times and I never forgot it.

Now that I have my cars, even if I see a lady drowning due to rain, I would zoom off without looking back.

Hello guys,

Please have you ever been asked "what do you want from me?" by a lady that you just wanted to help with no strings attached?

I was driving home yesterday after work and a lady (average looking) flagged me to stop and i decided to stop and gave her a lift. I asked her where she was going and she mentioned a bustop before mine and i said lucky you... We had a lil chat as i drove her and she seemed really fun, We got to her bustop and i offered to be taking her to work in the morning since she stays close to my place. Then suddenly her face changed and she asked the annoying question "Oga what do you want from me?".. at that point i was dumbfounded and sad at same time. But i had to quickly smile and said "nothing" then i drove off.

For me i find it sad, a lot of people are not used to good people doing good things without wanting anything in return.

How do you feel and react when asked that question?

Please share yours
