Be taken for granted

Have you ever been in such situations where your friends take what you did for them for granted? And what do you do with it?

Oh yes, many times, but fortunately, I tend not to worry about it any more. As long as I feel that I have done something to help somebody, that is all that matters. If they thank me for it, it's a bonus, if not, well it can't be helped. I cannot live inside their minds so I can't really know if they are ungrateful of just forgetful. I feel happier if I just think they have forgotten :-)

I admire you have a very good mentality about this kind of thing. Yeah, we should learn to be broad-minded and helpful. It seems that I have a lot of stuff to work on and I will. Thanks for sharing.

I think everyone would have been through a phase when we have been taken for granted by someone or other... well like they say you learn from your lessons and so as we know how it feels we shouldnt do it to someone else as well. We should learn to forget and forgive and move on.. and make sure we are more alert around these people than we were before!

Very good point. I agree that we should do the same things about which we don't feel comfortable to others. Learning is very important.
