Part of this is just living out life. I would hate to think I lived but never helped anyone, would this even be living

? The trick to me is being very selective in sizing things up fairly for all involved. There is a big difference in sharing, helping & being used.
I just wonder about some of my past sharing-helping deals how they really view it now (not that it really maters since it was worth it at that time

)? Do they ever think about how you helped or are they just pissed because you wouldn't give more? Are they quick to forget you while looking for a guy that will give more? As long as they stay appreciative & like wise with me it doesn't seem so bad. I know we feel good about ourselves for what we did which is probably most important. The problem I would have if I knew I was played is I would just be disappointed in myself for not being wiser

.
We take our chances no mater what but it pays to keep both eyes open ALL THE TIME & I don't believe in anyone stretching their finances for one knowing how most things play out but that is just me. Everyone should spend their money how ever it makes them happy. Happiness is most important. I just see so many guys crying over their beer about being played.
I still have to agree with the guys that say never send money since you are just to far away to keep an eye on what really is going on.
Thirdworld has a good point we should try to be thoughtful & not take away their survival instincts turning them into fat, lazy, demanding gringas no less

. I see so many men that can't wait to escape the good old USA to get away from the gringas only to turn around & start turning these foreign women on to the same tricks that phuck up the women where they just left

?? Go figure I guess creatures of OLD habits
