I agree with all of the previous posters, plus you need to get more sleep. Fours or five hours a night isn't adequate. A rested mind thinks more clearly.
The earlier posts have "hit the nail on the head" . . .
There's a fine line between HELPING and ENABLING. Your "friends" are USING you and you are in turn ENABLING them to become lazier and more dependent.
Sit down and explain the "free ride" is over and if they are true friends they will understand and thank you for all you have done. Otherwise, they were NOT really friends after all.
...and to top it off, you're running all over the place to accommodate them, and they aren't even out of bed when you get to their house. They are no only using you, they are laughing at you..!
They are not your friends..!
cant get any better responses than this. tell dumba$$es that they need to find a car they can afford and TAKE CARE of it. and with all the websites that offer loans to people with bad credit, and all the used car lots that offer loans to people with bad credit, they should be able to find financing for a car. heck if i could find someone back in the 80s to loan me money to buy a car(my credit was terrible back then), they can certainly find someone today to loan them money.

I've made all sorts of suggestions. The nearest bus stop is only about three miles away, but he claims to have a problem with his knees and doesn't want to walk that far. I'm at a loss as to what to do. My friend seems to take the steps I take against letting him use her personally. I've tried to pull out without making her angry; we've been friends for a long time. This depending on me for a ride stuff started happening after her and her boyfriend moved into a house together. I wish they had a good concept of how difficult this can be.
You do nothing but make excuses for them. You are weak and they know it and continue to take advantage of you.
Were the situation reversed, you would find out in a hurry she is NOT your BFF, she is a user or she wouldn't allow her bf to treat you like she does.
You are doomed because you refuse to stand up for yourself. If you don't, this will go on for as long as you allow it to.
No one can help you if you refuse to help yourself..
I should have said, "no" at first, but I was afraid. I'm trying to get out of it now.
