I think it (the question) means she's got a lot of nerve. Helping someone to move is one of the biggest favors one person can do another. Nobody likes moving or helping other people to move. This is a favor people do for close relatives and for good friends. I'll bet this gal does not have a bunch of guy friends . . . at least not who like her well enough to want to start lugging furniture around for her.

She could hire movers, but she'ld rather get free labor out of you. She must think you're a pretty nice guy to even ask this of you. Still, I think it's nervy to ask a big personal favor of someone she hasn't really struck up a friendship with. If she can get you to do this, then she'll be pestering you the next time she needs some muscle for another reason. You'll end up feeing used.
Thanks for this!
