Okay so I have this friend,
and like, if you plan to do something for someone, and you manage to find a way you can gain something from it as well, a win-win situation, Then she thinks its less of a meaningful gesture?
But I'm just like, No, I mean, the idea was for you. It wasnt really to get anything else at first, I just found a way I could benefit.
Or, my cousin does the opposite sometimes for her. Shes still mad about it sometimes. He'll know someone she likes, so he makes friends witch them (something hes shockingly good at?), so she can get to know them because, well, friends of a friend. And she wont use it, 'cause she thinks its wrong or something.
