A place to stay, a meal, money, recipes.
They are having a health issue with their dog. (I have been through a lot of them!) Or need training advice. Some people just need to vent. A few ask for money.

Usually it's relationship / friendship advice.

They came up to me to help them find the right seats in the theater.
Someone to listen! Cooking or money.

Scheming, conspiring, etc
