Sociopath Community

Lack of reciprocity is a modern thing and it’s good. People are realizing more and more that living with yourself instead of seeking approval or a partner to live is just as good if sometimes better, if we are avoiding toxic ones.

Divorce becoming such a trivial thing nowadays and single mom’s not ashamed of it , are one of the biggest signs in our society.

Social media was a step back but we are still on the right track.

Fuck reciprocity, either you do something not expecting anything in return or just don’t do it..
If you expect something in return, that’s a business deal.

I don’t usually get too upset by a lack of reciprocation; it’s more indicative of the quality of the person. “Gained insight”, if you will. And some people are just aloof, or the same things aren’t significant, etc. Some empathizing is important for realizing where the shirking happens.

This problem is similar to the other I commented on, where I think you’re too reliant on input from others. That’s not to say your feelings are wrong, only that as long as you’re that sensitive to what you receive, you can expect turbulence—that’s just how life is. The way out of that is to build up your own world in a way where the disappointments others bring aren’t knocking you off center.

So it's good when you help someone move, but a year down the road they won't help you?

 I am not helping anybody move. I will help someone if I really like that person, and to that happen I will make sure I know the person likes me too.

If they say no, unless the reasons are good, I will take the person actually doesn’t like me and cut relations.

So we are talking more about healthy relationships than reciprocity alone. That one by itself doesn’t mean much unless like I said before, you are already doing something expecting a favor in a near future, which in my mind would be more like an unspoken deal. If that’s what you mean by reciprocate,  then yeah, you just don’t deal with this person anymore.

So "fuck reciprocity" but then cut ties if your  friends don't reciprocate?

 You are taking out of the context.

For reciprocity alone, yes fuck it because you don’t need to be good friends with someone to reciprocate a behavior.

Therefore, just because someone offered me their help doesn’t mean I will go out of my way if they ask it already expecting it back just because they did it for me once. Either they did on good will which I appreciate, or they already did on second intentions.

Being a good friend is more about relationship and there is much more than reciprocating, in fact, most of it comes from doing good because you like “X” not expecting nothing back. People are not robot, they can feel it.

So you're the person TC would only help once. :P

 it's a part of your character to me. all you guys here do this 'it happened this many years ago, why do u care?' and a huge part of why it sticks out is that u seem to get kinda triggered by girls seemingly taking advantage of men, which is crazy to me and suggests ur delusional or hypocritical af.

Do you expect others to reciprocate when you help them at their lowest point?

Have you heard of a saying the first thing a blind person does when they opens their eyes is to get rid of the cane?

Please help me. I feel people owe me all the time and I keep a black book where I write what every favor I've done for people and I feel so angry and mad when my friends and family doesn't reciprocate and I feel they should just read my mind and know what I want and last night I was shouting at my ex-friend over the phone for not giving me a present for my birthday even though I gave him a present on his birthday. How can I fix this problem? I feel so entitled and I know I should change but sometimes I just get so mad I lose it and my husband is running with his new boyfriend when Im pregnant doing nothing useful after I spent years treating his depression and I feel so sad.

 have you considered an abortion?
