Not walking to taxi rank - right to be annoyed?

    I was thinking about this thread last night - I'm went out to watch the match with a male friend and we went for dinner.

    I was in Castleknock so I didn't have too far to come home (and we had two drinks) so he put me in a taxi, gave me the cash (he owed me money so it wasn't a freebie).

    Got a taxi himself to his place, called me in taxi to say he was at 'my home' as I had freakish experience with taxi driver last year where he sat outside my house all night - that's what I'd expect from my best male mate!

    It's not being intrusive. Asked him, and he said he's expect anyone to do it for his sister.!

    It reads to me like you would like him to care more for you and you are upset at the thought that maybe he doesn't?

    This is the real issue, not the taxi rank thing. It has become clear in this thread that it's not the done thing with everyone. It's worth reading the last paragraph of what the OP wrote again. In my opinion it just backs up what Sittingpretty has said.
    Slighly unrelated, but also something that's bothering me, is what happened on Thursday night. We were out with our own groups of friends, in different places, but he had been texting me all night asking me to come to where he was. The club we were in closed early, so I texted him at about half one, telling him I was going to come to the pub he was in. I arrived, only to find him all over another girl. It seems rude to be continually asking me to come and meet him, he presumably saw my text saying I was going to come, but then to go off with another girl.

    Despite the OP saying it's a casual thing etc. , it looks like they're not quite on the same page. It could be that he's a bit thoughtless, that he takes the OP for granted or that he isn't as much of a friend to her as she thought. It's time for the OP to have a think about where she sits in his list of priorities and make a decision.
