But what is important is your side of things, not theirs. You don't do what you do so that you can hear a 'thank you'. You do it because it makes you happy to help others. Of course it sucks when what you do isn't fully appreciated or doesn't receive the gratitude it deserves, but you can't do something about that. Just be open to all eventualities when helping others, especially online. That maybe they are jerks, that maybe they won't say thank you or, given the chance, will not return the favor. Do it only if you want to do it despite what reaction you receive at the end. That despite what happens, you won't regret doing it or feel that you are being exploited. You are helping others, it should make you feel good :) don't let what you feel depend on how other people act.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
