I'm going to break the guy code
What makes you feel so comfortable with breaking guy code?
So you think guys should always help each other? You just sound naive man. Guys don't have to always help each other
While it's true that it's impossible to always be with you friends, you still need to help them when you're available. That is what friendship is, and it's very fulfilling to have others' backs while they have yours. It will be a dull relationship if you can treat them kindly.
I just don't do things for them and expect help from them in return.
I think that the road works both ways. I think that if you can, you should always treat your friends well and with respect.
