Would you help someone who makes you suffer before?

Definitely! I'm not one who holds grudges. Besides, the respective positions or status that we are in now is enough revenge for me already. What? I am filthy rich and my nemesis is suffering? I mean, that is a very good thing right? So I guess I'm gonna lend a hand to the poor and needy that is my life long enemy.

hello cap, YES! With all my heart. Don't you know that helping those people who made your life miserable is the best revenged you could ever give to them? Just imagine how much effort/shame they are facing the moment they asks help from you. But- of course revenge is not good...i will do it because i am in the position to do so.

HEllo, i no need to think about the answer for this discussion, since i'm doing the same thing now, actually when my friend first asked my help i started thinking but then i understood, he is completely down now, that's why he came to me so then i gave my helping hand, such kind of people will never the importance of friends, but i don't feel bad since i got used to it.

hi CaptAlbertWhisker I was just thinking of something Christ had said, i am putting it in my own words, that that you do for the least of them, ye do also for me. To me he meant that if you help someone whom you had hated before for the horrible way they had mistreated you,you are doing this also for the pure and perfect Christ. It is said he often visits us in disquise of someone we dislike or hate so if we can help this person whom we have every right to by pass, we are also doing this in the name of C hrist.Yes I feel that if I were rich I could help this person whom by all rights I should hate as thats bygone and this is now. I do this in the name of Christ however .But also I would do it hoping to help this person to maybe live and change his or her ways.

Why not? It is better to be maltreated than maltreating others. If they have been bad in the past, that is in the past. I don't want to be like them.

hi friend I Will help him. althought he ever do something bad to me. you know the good attitude is help each other. if people of the world have help each other . our earth will be save.

Hi. CaptAlbertWhisker. Yes, I will. I will put aside my anger and hurt just to help them if I could. I am not the type of person that will keep hatred into my heart. I may be upset with them, but when the situation and need is very serious, I will lend out an helping hand.

First, I would be very careful not to believe everything that is told to me by one of my long time enemies; it could be a scam. I would research what they are saying is indeed true. Then, and only then would I decide whether I would help them and to what extent. I would not take their entire burden and handle it, but I guess I would donate something to their situation. I would also like to know why this person has suddenly decided to speak to me again, because I now am in a position to give them money? If I was not rich, would they still be my enemy. I am wondering if this person who has been mean to you for many years, who now needs your help, have apologized for the way he or she behaved toward you in the past? Or, did they just have the nerve to just ask for your help? It is always nice to help people, but it is not so smart to be gullible to every cry for help.

Hello the discussion theme is good. I never had experience when someone have tried to suffer me before. I know It would be hard for everyone to help people after bad memories with people what you want to help, but I would forgive It and help the people how fast It is possible, because does we do not know that bible taught forgive?

Thinking about the situation.. I think it'll be a situation for me wherein I will be forced to help the other person. Even though that person maltreated me, I'll still help him or her. If it wasn't for him or her, I would probably not end up the way I am now. Let's just say that that person became a tool for my success, so I'll help him o her. But that doesn't mean that I will just forget all the deeds he or she has done. THat is something I am uncertain of what my feeling s will be. I'll help the person, because I don't want to thank him or her for making me strong.

I believe in this: You are what you are now because of everything that happened to you in the past, influenced by all the people you have met. Maybe you are so rich now because of that person who maltreated you. Maybe you worked so hard because you wanted to show that person that you can make it. Maybe you have a great relationship with the people around you because you vowed never to treat anyone like that person treated you. If you hadn't met that person, you might not be where you are now... That person needs help now? And I have the means to help? Yes, I definitely will help. =)

Yes, I would help someone that made me suffer before because it's the right thing to do. Well, it depends on the favor then I'd be happy to oblige because what does that say about me as a person. It says that I'm someone who holds on to a grudge and doesn't know the meaning of forgiveness.

Yes, I would. I must admit, though, I have a very difficult time forgiving others who have wronged me or my loved ones. Forgiveness is something I definitely have been working on and will have to continue to work on probably for a very long time. I am truly a very warm, good-hearted person with sincere care for others - especially those in need. I also have tremendous guilt over various issues. So even if I had not yet gotten to the point of forgivenss with the person in your example, I would feel bad enough for them to help. I would also feel so guilty for not helping someone in need when I was fully able to do so that I would not be able to look at myself in the mirror and still say, yes, I am a good person.
