Sometimes helping others is not good

Philippines
June 11, 2016 1:49am CST
I feel upset. I just learned that the person i'm helping is not grateful. She say bad things about me behind my back. I've decided to stop helping her because i was really hurt. After all those help i've given her this is what i get? When i gave help i didnt ask something in return. Not even a thank you. I just cant believe that i'm the bad one after all the help i did. Maybe helping others is not a good idea. They can't appreciate it.

Depending on how bad is that person to deserve such help. I despise people like that.

@Micah04 Oh sorry. I never know it's your sister. Well, you should help her because she's your sister. But she should be thankful help comes to her.

Even if i dont want to help her i think i should help here. She's my sister. I feel guilty if i dont help her especially financial help.

some people can be really ungrateful for our help - I'd avoid helping her for a while if it causes you problems too

When you help some one you must not expect anything from him. If not it is not just help, help become a condition or agreement already. Help have no condition or return rewards. No matter how he say or treat you, is not your problem. It is the person problem and she will got punished that we never know. Give a hand to anyone you pass by though he is a stranger.

@Micah04 ..If she is older sister, learn to brush it off and never be there..doesn't matter because if she is exploiting, she is...and she knows. Outsiders may not realize it, but insiders know when they are doing that and are enjoying your hesitation because they know your confusion.

Don't think like that. She's not worth that much. Don't let someone like her to change your opinion about other people.

@Micah04 if you don't think you can help just anyone, at least help the people that are worth your help

Maybe you are right. I should not stop helping to anyone no matter what or how they treat me.

You're right. Even if your intention is pure they still say something bad about you.

You should have a talk with your sister and make your feelings on the matter clear. Cutting her off isn't easy so just maintain a healthy distance until she realizes her folly.
