People will only do you an insignificant favor
Never something that is valuable and long term. No matter if you give them everything.
I realised that just yesterday
Hi there.. @hellocranberry5684
Just wanna let you know you are not alone in this. I have been through or rather i m going through the same situation. i will put it simply for you.. I did everything they needed (and ASKED FOR).. unexpectedly tables turned and i was the one in need but i was never given what i needed and asked for. I was made to roam about and move from person to person yet no one helped. I wasted an entire year doing this hoping maybe at least one of the person's conscience will awaken and they'll help me out. but possibly they were all playing a part in what was my problem.
I don't want you to do something i did at that time. I became bitter and ruthless then. even now in bits and pieces. But i have realised now it's not like that they are the only ungrateful ones.. they're are just what most of the rest of the world is i.e. ungrateful.. it's people like you or me who are too good to exist.. probably majority of people only do favours if and only if it suits them at present or if there's some advantage they seek in near or far future.. or probably do things which don't matter to you coz at least they know they'll not have to face who they actually are i.e. ungrateful.. coz if you ever tried to say that they didn't help you out.. they can always say no u see i did all i cud even tho cud do much more .. and at the end of day, know noone wants to get into your battles to save you ,even if you saved them from theirs (at your own loss?) becoz after all it means taking part in a battle.. as the world is evolving being what you are is no more something people aspire anymore, they're more keen to make people believe the bad is the only real while good is either fake or not fully good.
So it's high time that you just realise the people around you whom you did everything for, are a level or two below you.. so just like when you feed a stray dog you don't expect it to protect your house in return if ever a thief showed up and he was in way.. Don't expect people whom you did everything for to help you out in need.. but keep looking & searching never lose hope you'll one day find someone who'll be so much as you are and they'll help you in need and provide help that ACTUALLY MATTERS.
Moreover keep your stick around too forget abt your house being saved, you never know,the very same dogs you fed could come biting at you.
don't get me wrong the term dog is just an example.. i know you must have treated them as a family member that you are able to give everything you could.
You are a nice person. It's only people like you who provide hope that a world full of peace and nice people in majority will be achieved someday.
I hope you get over this disappointment soon.
All the best.
One Amongst You ❤️
