So last night me and my buddy where at a gas station filling up my cars tires. We both noticed this guy get out his car and start walking towards us and asks us "frantically" if he we could spare a dollar so he and his girlfriend could get home literally right down in the next town over. I know this girl as she works at a star bucks down the road. (i didn't know that at the time so that's sort of irrelevant) So this guy a total stranger asked me for a dollar so he could just put enough in his tank to get home. (He seemed like he was panicking)
My buddy was going to give him $2 so i gave him $3. The guy was really nice and seemed really thankful. He then pulls up his car and gets gas "he showed us his gas light was on" I don't know what happened leading up to this or why neither one had money for gas, But he was very friendly and i legitimately felt bad for this guy.
I'm no stranger to people asking for money normally i just look past those sorts of things, But my question is would you do the same? How would you deal with this?
After they got the gas the girl got out and told us whenever we are around that starbucks she would hook us up with free coffee, I mean that's cool and i appreciate the thought i didn't expect anything in return neither did my buddy we were just filling up our tires.
