AITA for refusing to drive my friend on vacation? She comes on a family vacation with us for the past like 8 years to an EXTREMELY WALKABLE area. That’s part of why I love it so much. I like driving but not for such a short distance. The problem is…

… shes put on weight. Like a lot. When we started coming here I was the overweight one but I’ve dropped 30lbs while at college (which I think she genuinely hates sometimes). The other day we walked 5 min the the hot dog stand and she complained the whole way about being hot and asking to drive next time. It was maybe 85 degrees but she also chose to wear dark clothes. And again, WE’VE BEEN CONING HERE FOR YEARS!! She also has been getting under my skin lately bc it’s painfully obvious she..

..hasn’t matured and genuinely can’t do things for herself. Like needed me to order her a drink at a restaurant bc “I don’t know how” and “can you go back to the house and get a boogie board for me? The sand burns my baby feet” (yes she is a “I’m just a baby” “I have baby hands/feet/any body part” person). It’s so annoying. She also complained about a hike that we went on when she visited me at college bc “I thought it’d be like at home”. I went to school in the mountains. We live in the coast.

I warned her even though she says I didn’t. She also says “I’m just a girl” not in a haha way but she genuinely uses it as an excuse for SIMPLE TASKS. Omg and yesterday “I like eating crab meat from the shell, it makes me feel like a big girl” STFU YOU’RE 21!! Also asking me if I’m proud for BASIC TASKS. It’s like an adult toddler. Sorry for the long rant, it’s just so much.

Oh, cherry on top if you needed one. She uses ADHD and autism as a shield (she was never tested for autism), meanwhile I just got diagnosed with ADHD. Meaning she’s had help and support since she was young and I didn’t, but I can be mature and act like an adult (I should have been tested bc school was hard but I made “systems” so I did good and nobody questioned lol). Numerous doctors from when I was tested also want a follow up test for autism, but it’s just too expensive…

…and I’m ok with just an ADHD Diagnosis so i can get accommodations for tests. It bugs me how much she used it as an excuse to act like a literal child when I also have really bad ADHD (she’s at least medicated, I’m not yet) and she’s was just told “that’s a symptom of autism” by her therapist, meanwhile my therapist and other professionals have actively been building a case for me to be able to get further testing. She’s also leaned way into it, not just sometimes as a joke, all the time.

I’ve tried to talk to her about it and she always just says that she’s just a girl or she’s just a baby. She’s like four months younger than me by the way. But she also wonders why her family doesn’t want her to live alone in a house. Basically given their situation, her grandma’s house is empty because her grandma is staying with her aunt and she doesn’t understand why she’s not allowed to be there alone, but like I don’t blame them at all.

She’s also kind of out of personal things in my life to my family, which I really don’t appreciate and says she just forgets because she’s two ADHD

Yeah…I feel bad. But I’ve known her since kindergarten and I know she’s capable of being an adult
