Today I helped a family friend paint their new house. I've been helping them move for months.
I returned an $800 blackberry I found recently.
I try to do the right thing when it's easy like that. Little things in my life causes me turmoil, though. Using plastics, driving, using toxic chemicals, creating trash, working for a company that generates trash. It pains me to throw away the plastic that wrapped a product. It sounds ludicrous but I know every action is important and I try to make conscious choices.
People are shit though. My fundamental belief in life is that all people are good. It helps me to stay content with life. But people are shit. I held the door open for this woman today and she gave me a bad look. My gf spilt some mustard at a food truck and people got upset instead of helping her. I get cutoff by someone and then they blare their horn when someone takes 2 seconds to go after a green light.
If you can't be nice to strangers then what kind of person are you.

If it's happening all the time, it may just be a matter of weakness, and the other person isn't mistaken at all.

All the time. Look no further than these boards, the way a lot of people treat me here is beyond reason.
I get more backstabs here than Ten Of Swords.

That I login here still has more to do with my undying faith in the good of this community than with how I actually get treated here. In the game of soccer that is forum discussion, I get treated like the ball.
If I ever quit here it wont be because of an overdose in my asshole but because of the overdose of assholes in here.
I don't get this negativity in my offline life or elsewhere online.

Just be an asshole. Being kind won't get you anywhere in life.

No, you are mistaken. I dont appreciate such quick judgement when you have no idea the type of shit and people i have to deal with on a daily basis.

Lol, calm down sparky. No one is judging you. First of all, I didn't say that you are weak, just that you MAY have a weakness IRT allowing people to take advantage of you. That's a parallax view of the situation, an alternative look into what might be happening.
But, for your argument's sake, let's say that I did call you weak (which I did not do, remember). That too is no judgment, but rather an observation. It would be a judgment if I had said something like "you're weak, and that makes you a piece of shit". THEN you'd be right to snap at me for being judgmental.
But that's not the case, and my comment wasn't even meant to be directed at you, but rather as an observation geared at the several people who answered "all the time" to the question in the OP. So I was just thinking out loud, and did not mean to offend you in any way. It's just that if you're constantly finding yourself being taken advantage of, maybe you do have some weakness that people are targeting. Instead of just saying, "I'm too kind", maybe you (and by "you", I mean the generalized other) can reflect on yourself a bit, realize the weakness, and harden it up some.
Good luck, man, I hope you one day get away from all these terrible people you live amongst.

Being alone takes and builders strength. I enjoy moderating my social interaction. When I was young I moved next to a buddy I was couch surfing at. These people started coming over wih coke and it wasn't even good coke. They were a bunch of shit bags that respect nothing and no one and have all done prison time. A bunch of my stuff went missing. Got to the point I just stopped going to the door. They were always coming over ready to commit indescriminet felonies.
The morel of the story is to stay away from people that do shitty drugs. Nothing like snorting 90% pure Colombian baby lax!
