How not to feel like a loser at college?

I recently ran into a childhood friend of mine. She invited me to dinner for her bf's birthday and her friends. Would I be a loser if I asked that if I got dropped off could I get a ride home? She's a college grad. I'm not yet. I just feel loserish to ask

• Answer:

  Needing a ride doesn't make you a loser. If you want to go and need a ride home, i suggest you ask. If she looks down on you for it, she's not a very understanding friend. I've accepted and given countless rides in my life (yes, some may say i'm a loser, but i quit disagree :) ). I urge you to look at your worth as much more than what you have or what you need. You will ask for help many times in your life and you will also give it. If you can give graciously and receive gratefully, you are a winner. Give what you can and take what you need. You can do both as a winner.
