Have you ever been attacked by a person you tried to help..?

GOD
So many times.
So many attacks
So little
Logic.

Dude... just turn on the boob tube and watch Judge Judy or Judge Mathias. Seriously, this stuff goes on ALL the time.

I am being told I am a horrible person because I ran out of time, energy, and extra money to save a relative's house from re-entering foreclosure. I was able to stave off their foreclosure myself for 6 months by working with their bank (paying 1/2 their mortgage for 6 months) while simultaneously working for free on their house to prep it for sale. I just couldn't pull it off. The house is nowhere near being ready to show. It has so many problems. Now the foreclosure process is starting again and the homeowner is attacking me for failing.

thats really heart breaking.

Attackers seem to have one thing in common. They twist events and intentions to suit their world view that people are out to harm them.

thanks. it makes thanksgiving a bit of a downer this year.

Yes, it happened about 17 hours ago. I got sucker punched (literally) by my boyfriend, who I'd been helping organize the 'perfect' Thanksgiving for his family. His family lives a good 400 miles away and they arrived yesterday evening. I'd been helping get his home into tip top shape, and cooking some things for them.
I'm not really sure what provoked him to hit me, I was just sitting on the sofa and WHAM! When I came to, I ran. At first it was just a HUGE knot like the size of a golf ball on my cheek. Over night the swelling has gone down (a very little bit), it's changing colors (Blueish black), my left eye is bruised the most, and somehow he whacked me so hard my right eye is beginning to bruise as well...
I can't help but cry. I'd been trying so hard, I wanted a good 'family-style' Thanksgiving too - my family doesn't do holidays (they spend all their money on drugs) and it's been so long since I've just been able to sit around the dinner table with NORMAL people... I don't know what I did...
Well... I hope they enjoy the pecan pie, and green bean casserole...

PS: Sorry, I REALLY just needed to vent.

Oh boy. I am so sorry about that. That is horrible. Was the moron 'play punching' or was he trying to hurt you? Either way, that asshole is probably going to do it again. Some sick, twisted guys out there. Don't try to find an explanation. More likely there is no explanation. You just need to get away.

Yes.

I gave someone a 20 and they wanted MORE.

people are scum;

Thanksgiving is an INFAMOUS time for conflicts, and actual fistfights between neighbors and family members...

people are in close proximity when they havent been; drunk, and all the shit comes out.

Keep Thanksgivings either very large or very small.

I think we all have at some time or another.

Some people simply cannot be helped, OP.

Gotta cut them loose or they will suck the life force from you.

Usually the helper is secretly resented because no matter what you do for them the recipients pride and ego are in a submissive state.

Ten years as a paramedic, for awhile it was a daily thing in Tulsa.

well thats good karma for you and bad for them..

Your intent was to do no harm! however they felt attacked because they live in defensive and feel like everybody is trying to take advantage of them!

Fearful people seek position of comfort! in a coorupt energy feild. Those beings will be the predominant force!

they will seek comfort Thru Control thru Power!

hence some of them never satisfy their need for safety, eventualy become Control freaks and Sociopaths!

Knowing that, when helping someone, take this in consideration and it will help you greatly to make the person at ease!

My last boss.

Nobody in society ever helped me when the chips were down and everyone else can go to hell. So no.

If i was the sun i would let you start elsewhere like itself.

Without feeling sorry after seeing it.

Troll.

If not trolling.

My dog recently ate my ballsack.

I gave him my friends too.

Yep. To be helped. You're probably in a state of defense like a wounded animal.

No biggie.

But yes, we have no ability to discern ego from higher spirit on this planet. Wake up.

If we could, we would silence the ego and just allow help. There is something in the way, a personal preference that doesn't want to let go.

It's even more confusing and difficult when they're not attacking you directly, just destroying every bit of help you give to them.

Yes i pushed him down the clift i helped him to get out from and called 911 afterwards telling a man who was raping the mares at the farm was kicked by one down a clift"
the drugged fellow wife later divorced him after buying a miniature horse ...

Honestly you are a good person for doing what you did. You tried your best and that is all you can do. Let her be mad, selfishness is a common trait.

Selfish and ignorant.

yeah, but it's normal for me

i work with autistic kids, and they bite, punch, and scratch when you try to help them

little bastards!!!

Whatever you do, do not have any contact with this person again, no matter what he says, no matter if he apoligizes. I think I'd want to relocate, change my phone number, get a restraining order if need be

Sorta. One day I saw an man lying in a parking lot. I stopped the car, got out and tried to help him up. Well he started to pull me down. Since I was 7 months along with my 2nd child that wasn't very hard. Just then a police car pulled up,the officer helped me up and I was out of there. Since it was daylight in a business parking lot it was more like a drunken fumble. But I won't do that again.

Yes or they at least go bi polar the next day!
