You know, I really loathe thinking bad of others but I have come across too many people who do not have simple courtesy, in short, people who are simply biadap. I don't think my expectations are too high to want people to show simple courtesy. Yes, I know I have written about this issue before but these past couple of weeks, the problem has been rather pronounced, unfortunately.
You know, people come to me to ask for a favour. When it is done, they never even say a word of thank you. Not that I WANT or NEED the acknowledgement but it just reflects on the person, on the parents and on their manners and upbringing.
While I do not lose anything helping others out without a word of thanks as described above, I feel like my efforts are unappreciated and it just makes me ask myself, why bother helping others when they don't even appreciate it. Every one goes on their merry way as soon as they achieved what they want and why should I make life easier for others?
Maybe I am weird. Maybe I expect too much. Maybe I am getting old. My friend asked me why I am bothered by such petty things. Well, I don't know. I just am.

Hi!
I am sorry that you are facing this problem. I wrote this post so long ago that I had to reread what I wrote.
It looks like we are the good people who always get taken advantage of!
