In the reading there are several instances when Crito asks Socrates what will the people think of him and his actions. He contemplates what people will think of him if he doesn't convince Socrates to live. However what kind of friend would he be if he doesn't choose to accept Socrates wishes no matter how they affect him?

Is it for Friend or Self?
Crito gives Socrates numerous reasons for why he should escape prison. Many referring to how it would directly affect him and how he would be seen in society. This brings me to ask the question, does he want to help Socrates out of jail because it directly benefits him or is it genuinely because he doesn't want to see his friend harmed?
