“I will not get into how my freinds and I helped a friend that went OTD without any alterior motives, we just felt compasionate for her because she was in a very bad situation.
We went out of our way for her, but there was no thank you no appreciation, her basic manners were lacking. So of course, some will say, yeah well she was hurting, blah, blah and she could’t even say thank you, blah blah blah. My freinds and I felt washed out and used and just stopped giving.
So the truth is if you don’t expect too much from people you can’t get burnt. Yes, that sentence was a mistake on my part because some people don’t expect basic appreciation in return for their work.”
Perhaps you meant well, but maybe your friend didn’t take it that way or maybe it didn’t come out that way. The world is full of well meaning people who end up doing a lot of NOT nice things!
