Do you expect anything in return after you've done like help to someone?, I thought it common sense to pay back maybe not everything, to that person who has helped us. Like if that person has pay for your meals, would it be like normal for you to pay for the next meal if you sit together again, right? I guess my way of thinking is too naive, but that the way should be. What do you think?

I actually don't expect anything in return when I help someone. In my personal experiences, I found it better not to have any expectations when helping someone. When I do something with an expectation, that's just another oppertunity for a disappointment. Why take a chance at feeling bad or being disappointed while doing something good. I know I helped someone & I feel good that I helped make someone's day better, that's enough for me.

When i help someone i may don't think of anything in return...just helping a needy, i think...but if that person does something against me, even talk bad about me, i feel it, that how thankless she or he is, & i should not have helped that person..otherwise i don't give much significance to what i do in day to day lives....

Hello ucue2008,

I agree with you. That's the way it should be but some people just don't bother to be 'fair'. Like you, I always think similarly. If I have lunch with my friend and she pays, in return I will pay for the next meal. If we take a public transport and I pay, in return she will pay next. But, I didn't practice that with guys that dated me before. Whenever we went out, the guy had to pay lol

No, I won't expect at all. For me it's a great opportunity to help. Actually if we're helping others we are happy. And that happiness won't be paid by money. The satisfaction you earn is more valuable than the thing you could give or you share with.

Better not to expect a return 'coz you could appreciate most if that person whom you shared with will you give you an unexpected thing in return. Expecting might lead you to disappointment in case that person could not give if there will be a time you would believe he/she should do.

Give and share, and leave God to reward more than you had!happy

Well of course. It is just a matter of "give and take". If you had received any good compliments of course someday, somehow you could also return the favor...that's life..it would not that you just keep on taking though there's a saying "it's better to give than to receive" this phrase would only good for those person who are opportunists.....thanks.. happy

Hey,

Well it all depends, but most of the time I don't really expect anything in return for me, partly because after helping someone it is more of a thank you type thing, not a 'I did this for you, now you owe me this'. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!happy
