Do you say sorry if you feel you have hurt someone?
Yes. If actions are not necessary needed, I’d do my best to be sincere, as it’s my way to validate that happened by admitting my mistakes. But after that, “buried the hatchet”. So any ongoing grudges that they still wanted to hold onto are none of my concern. None taken.
Do you feel better if the person that hurt you says sorry?
Yes. I don’t expect any explanation. A simple “I’m sorry” is enough.
Do you forgive people easily?
With family or friends, yes but I do not forget. I’m not the type to hold onto grudges, instead I prefer reflecting inwardly and outward, before moving on. Strangers, I would just forget them.
Do you say thank you if you've been helped or praised by someone else?
Of course. It’s already difficult for me to ask for help, so if someone notices my struggles, that says a lot about them. I don’t do well with compliments but if I do receive them, I will say thank you and bring the attention back to them. It’s like hot potato. You throw me one and I’ll throw it back to you.
Do you feel better when you've helped someone and they say thank you to you?
I do not expect any reward or validation. So when I help others, I do it because not only it’s right but it’s also an obligation. But.. I would rather not have you say it. Most of the time it’s “don’t thank me yet” *knock on wood*
