Have you ever helped anyone and had family and freinds say your crazy?

I dont think you are crazy i think you are a good person to help someone who hurt you so badly. He is lucky you are able to forgive and forget and its what you think about him that matters no one else. I have forgiven someone before now even though everyone else told me I was crazy but it was my choice to make and if it was a mistake it was my mistake to make also, family and friends should simply learn to be there for you if the choice you make turns out to be a mistake be there to support not sit there shaking their heads saying we told you so

These people obviously care about you very much and are just frightened that you might get hurt again by having him in your home at this time. I think it is wonderful that you have forgiven and now have empathy, compassion and understanding to his needs and to be able to look after him at this time when he needs care. Many people when faced with major surgery do reevaluate things in their life and look at things from a different perspective and everyone deserves to be looked after when ill too. I have helped people in the past where my friends and family have said I was mad to and not to bother but someone had to and I helped this person who had anger problems and they are now a reformed character and my family now respect him for having made the change and for getting the required help needed. Hope all works out you sound like a very kind and loving person. Ellie :D

I have lost count of the number of times I have helped people out, even though everyone said I was mad to do so. I bailed a friend out of some serious debt a few years ago, she never really paid me back and still hasn't. I have given up on ever collecting that debt. A few years back I gave a home to someone who was desperate, they ate me out of house and home and never paid a penny in rent to pay me back, and again i have given up on collecting. Why do I do it? Every time I say to myself, stop being a mug, but it's the way I am. I cannot simply ignore people who need help and if i can help I will.

I haven't ever been in such a situation, but the people who saw you through your crisis with this person a couple of years back are just wanting to keep you from making the same mistake all over again. They remember that you almost did yourself in and are wanting to proctect you. I think it is great that you can forgive and be there for him when he needs you, but even though you think he has changed I hope you won't become emotionally invested in him while you're helping out.

Well there is nothing wrong in helping someone out, The question is here, is have you forgiven him for what happened in the past? Are you able to put your emotions to the side, and are you mentally capable with dealing with yourself, and do not feel that you will let your emotions get in the way and cause you to do more harm to yourself. I believe that is everyone's concerns, other than the fact they probably think that you will take him back and it may happen another time around. You have to decide for yourself, other's cannot influence your decisions. Ask yourself, what might, or what will happen once he has recuperated? Will you let them man come back into your life, and will he hurt you again? Then the choice is your's!

hey do what you think is right nobody should say a word about it unless there stealing from you than your the one that realy needs the help not him hey honey if he runs away . please dont lost any sleep over him and make your self sick, mr right out there and yu too will meet one day, ps, dont stay home he wont find you there, good luck your friend michael

Yes because they told me it is not worth helping a person who is not disabled and they just do their drama just to get my attention. But i dont care about that coz the main thing and reason why i do it because i want to help them.And if ever they are just fooling around I wont trust them anymore.
