Earlier today, when entering a fast food restaurant, there was a beggar asking for someone to buy her a cheeseburger. Deciding it would be better for me to walk home, I gave her my bus fare--$3.50. A few minutes later, after having received my food and sitting down, the beggar decides to sit with me. She, for what ever reason felt obligated to share her life story with me. This irked me. I didn't want to talk to her. I wanted to spend my lunch thinking. I wanted to tell her to "shut the fuck up and leave," but I had no intention of being rude. I smiled and nodded and kept the conversation going until she had finished expressing her gratitude. In the end, the whole interaction lasted roughly 30 minutes then we went our seperate ways.

Something occurred to me. I didn't give her the money because I felt guilty or wanted to help or anything of that sort. It was a calculated decision. It made more sense for me to spend $3.50 feeding someone than spending the same amount to avoid walking for 40 minutes.

Anyway, was my attitude and reason for "helping" cunty?

    For God's sake, give yourself a break! You made a sacrifice to help a stranger. Regardless of what your motivation may have been the point is you committed a random act of kindness. You're more charitable than most people.

    I wouldn't call you a cunt because you did a noble thing, but you're a bit of a snob. You gave her your money, but not your heart. Man does not live by bread alone. I saw a billboard that said, "What do you say to a homeless person? Try hello." You're not feeding a dog, you're nurturing someone less fortunate that has feelings and a soul.

    I don't have any idea why you would ever feel guilt, but you did want to help. You said it made more sense to use the money to feed someone, well, that is helping.

    Honestly, I think after she annoyed the crap out of you after, you now didn't like her as a person and so you decided you really didn't want to help this person. But you already did.

    You're fine. Next time give them money on your way out if you want to avoid a conversation.
