"Compassion differs from other forms of helpful or humane behavior in that its focus is primarily on the alleviation of pain and suffering. Acts of kindness which seek primarily to confer benefit rather than relieve existing pain and suffering are better classified as acts of altruism, although, in this sense, compassion itself can be seen as a subset of altruism, it being defined as the type of behavior which seeks to benefit others by reducing their suffering."

Does anyone feel uncomfortable when a person goes out of their way to help you with something or cheer you up? To the point where you feel uneasy whenever someone is trying to help you, even if you're reasonably certain that it's a genuine compassionate gesture?

Nope.

If they want to do things for me that's cool. But they shouldn't expect anything in return. Unless they really really like being grossly disappointed. Then they should expect a lot in return.

This is the same stupid attitude that makes so many good people bitter. Some people go out of their way to get you out of a jam, but when those very people are in a jam you turn your back on them.

Don't help people then. Like I give a shit.

So, only be nice and help out people who you give a shit about. Your friends, buddies, co-workers, etc. I'm fine being a complete asshole to assholes.

If your only helping people to get some kind of credit to cash in later then you just a dush and will never fell any real love. I try to help all my friends not because I expect them to return the favor, just because they're good people.

If you are trying to fix this problem, why are you directing the question outward? Instead try and determine why you are uncomfortable with it. Then, if you still don't know, you can ask and you'll get help much easier.
