My friends are using me

in blurt •  4 years ago 

There's this notion I find very disturbing, "my friends are using me". Honestly, people never do things for other people, people do things for themselves. The only difference is the reason why.
You buy your girl a dress because it makes her happy and in turn, her being happy makes you happy.
You help people because you love to know that you're contributing to society in the little way you know how.
You support your friends because you want to see them succeed which in turn makes you proud of them.
You do see how at the end of the day most of the things you do is for yourself right? Friendship is a transaction, we are someone's friend because of.something valuable you find in them.

now, this is very eyeopening... I will not say that I also think this way. I'm probably one of those who have faced that very same thing and ended up with the same conclusion... So this point of view changes a lot of perspective for a lot of people.
