Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : My friend and I went out last night to meet our usual friends. I usually pick him up and drop him off whenever we go anywhere because his car is broken. I dont mind it, he lives close by anyway. Not once have I asked him to pay for gas or pay for anything of mine. This time I asked for gas money because I was borrowing my dads car and he wanted me to pay him for gas and he offered 5 bucks which didnt even pay for the gas we used, but I was cool with it.

We went out and discovered that we had to pay for parking which was 5 bucks. I didnt have cash or debit card on me to get out cash and it's a cash lot. If I did have cash on me I would pay it no problem, you got gas, I'll get parking. So I told him to get it and he goes "no that is not what was agreed upon. I'm sorry but I didnt agree to pay for this. If I'm getting gas you have to get parking." Well neither did I, and if I knew we had to pay for parking I would have bought cash, but I didnt. So I told him that I dont have cash or a debit card so I cant pay. He doesnt have cash on him but does have a debit card, but he reiterates adding he has bills to pay. 

This dude makes 53k a year, and I never ask him for anything but this one time I asked him to spot me, he tells me no. Anyway I tell him "dude it's not like this is an everyday thing. If I had the money I would pay it, but I dont so either we drive home and you give me gas money or you pay for parking and we meet our friends." Its like literally 10 bucks total that I'm asking him to pay, literally not breaking the bank. 

Anyway he refuses so we look around and we find street parking and we park there, and I'm a little tense and keep worrying about my car because I'm not 100% sure if were able to park there, I actually went to check on the car while we went from one bar to another to make sure I didnt get a ticket. (Btw while we were at the club he bought a drink. I think its oddly suspicious if you throw such a fit over 5 bucks because you dont have the funds, but buy yourself a 10 dollar drink. That made me realize that he did have money but he didnt want to help me out even though I needed it). 

I never do favors to get anything back, and had I had the cash, I would have paid for parking myself no problem no questions asked because that's just how I am. But the one time I asked him to spot me he says he can't because "he didnt agree to this". It makes me realize that if he could help me out, he wouldn't, meanwhile, I go out of my way to help him out. Now that hes done this I'm rethinking the limits of my friendship with him, and I want to stop giving him rides because of what I realized. 

Now redditors, am I the asshole for asking a friend to pay for parking and gas? And would I be the asshole if I stopped giving him rides because of this?
