If you don't know this today then let me spell it out to you all in block letters, We humans are the best definition of ingrates, Don't get me wrong friends, when I say humans are the best definition of ingrates I meant about 50 percents of we humans tend to be ingrates when we are being favored by either friends, family or sometimes strangers, only about 50 percent of us humans tend to pay good with good, we have some people who mostly care to pay good with evil...
This is not a baseless accusation, I am only saying this because in the last couple of decades, I have experienced different sides of men, I am very good with words and because of this talent, I have a healthy social life, which means I have a lot of people in my life and without a doubt, I have had my share of experience with ingratitude/ingrates...
In as much as we have good people in this world, we also have some bad people in this world, If everyone is good in this world then we could say humans are perfect and can never make mistakes, the bitter truth is that humans will always be humans and in this world, we will always have ingrates and men filled a thankful heart...
I am not perfect, I am not a bad person and I am good to an extent, today I will be sharing my experience with ingratitude, It is going t short and direct, sit tight and follow the process...
MY EXPERIENCE WITH AN INGRATE...
First thing first, as I have said above; humans will always be humans, Everyone has both good and bad sides, and in the last couple of decades, I have come to understand the fact that we should never expect too much of someone, be it family members, friends or outsiders, I have gotten my share of experience with ingrates and after that terrible experience, I had to learn human ways the hard way...
The truth that I have indeed done something for someone and at the end of the day I was repaid with ingratitude, It even got to a point where this particular person started seeing me as a bug after all my sacrifices for me, he got what he wanted and thrashed our relationship like it was nothing...
I was hurt and broken back then because it was when I needed him the most that he turned out to show his ungrateful j..k, I was surprised at how cruel humans can be, It is one different thing to have a good relationship with someone who has once helped you in life and it is a different thing to be an ingrate to someone who has sacrificed a lot for you in the past...
I sacrificed my time for this particular person because I thought he was my friend, I helped him when he needed me the most but what did I get from him when I needed him the most? I got cold shoulders and several other attitudes from this so-called friend of mine...
He didn't just abandon our friendship and bond, he blocked me out of his life when he got what he wanted, he started by turning off his read receipt and his last seen on WhatsApp, I tried to call him several times but it was all for nothing...
He didn't directly zero all my sacrifices but he indirectly discarded and zeroed my sacrifice by not coming through for me when I needed him the most, he even neglected me when I was even trying to help him, he got what he wanted, and showed his real personality...
No doubt he was a bit helpful when I helped him in the past, I can boldly say he owes me more than I owe him but he forgot me the moment he got what he wanted I was very hurt at first because it happened at the point where i needed him the most...
I tried to contact him for weeks but when I saw his behavior I decided to move on, It was at this point I considered him to be my past and decided to move on in life, it took me some time to heal from that hurt but I eventually moved on from it after some days...
This experience opened my eyes to differnt truths of life and it made me understand certain things about humans, It changed my way of thinking when rendering help to someone, I learned how to render help without directly expecting something in return in the future, I grew up better thanks to this experience...
In summary, I won't deny the fact that I was hurt by his actions, I was angry for days but slowly I started seeing it as something normal and didn't let that one bad experience stop me from helping a brother or sister in need of my help...
In conclusion, after some months we met in real life, and we saw each other face to face, this time he was already in the tertiary institution and was now living large, he is now a bigger boy compared to when I was still tutoring him for WASSCE, we are neither close nor separated, there is a huge gap between us, we are just there and a lot of things has changed for both of us, I don't need him again so we just remained acquainted and nothing more...
