Tired of ungrateful people

I kinda stopped helping my family with computers and stuff once I grew up and didn't really have time for that sort of thing. I mean when you're a kid it's cute to get the kid to help and kids all stoked to help anyway.
I mean, I still help my Grandma from time to time, but she always ends up paying me anyway, even though I never ask for money. All my friends and other relatives I charge, my time isn't free.

As for the darker side of this thread, no one is obligated to associate with family. I know of way too much fucked up shit to understand that sometimes it just won't work. My husband is still emotionally scarred from his fathers abuse, and it happened decades ago.

 

What? What part of "helped in past" don't you understand? My father was disrespected at his own funeral, they didn't 'have time' to stay yet my father always found time being the only one working in the household, in the freezing cold earning minimum wage.

Perhaps you should watch your tone. Honestly get your head out your arse and realise your situations are not the same as mine or anyone elses. You Sound like a
politician who thinks everyone earns 250k a year.

(Just for the record, no I'm not having a go at you or trying to offend you)

By all means do what you think is right. I don't continue helping those who are unthankful or disrespectful. That doesn't make me an asshole for doing so, or anyone else here for that matter. What makes you an asshole is exploiting other people's morals.

 

Calm down there, buster. Don't be a hypocrite and assume you know anything about me either. Don't act high and mighty because you've met some pain in your life. Everyone has and you're not special.

Perhaps you should too. You're the same as mairsil. Thinking you're the only person in the world who's been hurt.

 

I love Silent Rob, not many YouTubers out there like him speaking the truth.

 

Dont pay attention to HEX1GON I have seen him overreact to stuff in the past. I will make an assumption and say he seems to have a temper. Reading this whole conversation as a 3rd party you stated your opinion and he stated his, then got mad about your opinion lol.

 

Your line of thinking helps create abusive situations. Family is not the end-all, be-all of living and the constant barrage of "stick with your family", "trust your family", "don't disappoint your family" is toxic to those already in bad situations. The number of times I was called "ungrateful" for even questioning abuse from my family was disgusting. People need to know that it is OK to cut ties, abandon abusive people and get out of bad situations without people saying it's "unhealthy" to treat your family like strangers.

 

You don't know anything about "my line of thinking". I, on the other hand, do know a lot about spoiled brats in western Europe who think their relatives "ask too much of them".
Did I say that you should fix your uncle's PC after he raped you? No? Then use your common sense when I talk about about helping ones family.
I'm not talking about extremes, obviously.

A person who doesn't know anything about what you're helping them with is also bound to be ignorant about the effort that is required in order to help them.
Hence, you can't judge them for not appreciating your help as much as the effort that you've put in in helping them.

This is it, that's my whole point.
Did I say that you should buy alcohol for your alcoholic mother "because family is family"? No, sir, I did not. That is completely on you.

Well, yeah. Opinions tend to get people heated. Me being no exclusion

 

Well, when you make statements like "family is family" and "unhealthy is treating your family like strangers", you're including the extremes. Whether or not that is your intent is a different issue.

 

Not really, I'm using common sense.

 

Righteo. GGWP.

I don't have a temper, that's your assumption, issue is neither of you are having an open mind about this at all. You're both closed minded. You can't generalise issues like this.
Your 3rd party stand of point is wrong also. He's assuming his own experiences are the same as mine. They're not. I stated my opinion also. That's it. Not sure what you're trying to pull.

Don't worry, they're both closed minded idiots. Then go back and try and back peddle playing the victim card.

Done here anyway, i'll let americandad and jake get all sooky about it with one sentence replies as they fail to analyse our statements.

 

The amount of times I seen people go "But I seen this and this on youtube/whatever site, SO IT MUST BE TRUE!!11!!"
Some people just don't belong on the web...

 

You know the funny thing is I agree with you on this thread topic. But you seem to think that anericandad was talking about you and he wasn't. He stated his opinion, which he should be able to do without people like you jumping down his throat and telling him off.

And I'm not trying to pull anything. I have seen you flip out on multiple members here in the past and that's not cool. You should realize that sometimes people think differently than you and you are not always right.

 

Ok, man. Now you totally got me. That's a winning argument, if there ever was one. Good job.

 

I feel your pain. Is this the first time you've ever interacted with a millennial or something?

 

I've heard about that, what made Silent Rob get angry at him?

 

I think when some people ask for opinions/advice/data they already have the answer they want to receive firmly planted in their head, even if it was generated based on their own ignorance or false info that they found somewhere. When they get an opinion/piece of advice/bit of information that contradicts what they WANTED to hear or what they think they already know, they might give a "Thanks!" but proceed to do what they wanted to do in the first place.

 

you're a layday?

 

Nope, a guy. Dudes can marry dudes here.

 

Ah, I see. Cool, dude

 

Assembler your old... Dont be a dick.. If your single find some young women that appriacites your stuff. I just bought a bachelor pat recently in baltimore Anand I'm find some chicks but the most are Rast first you know like brainwashed. I'm definitely moving.
