So if you are nice at work and do a great job u shouldn’t be rewarded with raise?
True
it’s about ethics and being true to oneself. if you’re after the reward (after the consequence) then you’re not ethical and you won’t find true happiness in the act.
I don’t expect something in return…. Just I expect not being an asshole in return
Words cost nothing
I agree.
Yes you are its appreciation
Oh no question, i just meant it as in ” yes it is true, we should do things out of heart!
I have never asked for anything in return. What give or help is out of kindness
Careful. One doesn’t continue to do kind and/or helpful things for someone that shows no appreciation and/or respect for them. Unless they’re a glutten for punishment. At which point, that is on them.

Can u explain
yap very true nice person never expect from other so they cl nice1 unfortunately no1is nice in world coz everyone expect from other 🙂 😉
Neki kar… Dariya mein daal..!! Baki sab moh maya h!!
And never be a nice person
What goes around comes around. The more you give, the more you get. That’s just the way the universe works. You rarely get back directly from the person to which you gave but you will get what you need when you need it if you give when someone else is in need.
yep
What happened to balance ???
It’s not possible to GIVE and have people TAKING all your life !!!
Being nice doesn’t mean you let people take you for granted…. Even God expects a certain behaviour from us to grant us blessings

Thare matthe mai koi baat samaj mai aave k nai?? Yaa phir tanne bera koni??
So no one is nice on this planet
Nice …haryanvi
WHY ? in the good expectation, a sort of motivation gains ground. DON’T make mankind DEAF & DUMB.
No,I don’t expect anything in return, I’m just like that. I really don’t care if you will return the favors or no. I do it cause it’s what I want, it’s what my heart say. and… that’s my parents raised me
If every one has a selfish mentality then there is no way you can show kindness to others
It’s so unfortunate people don’t mean it when they say NEVER MIND
You never say no need too mind .unless you don’t care .I care
When I show kindness in return of nothing people who I never know are kind to me
Sharing
Give more and expect nothing
I use to think I deserved the same kindness and respect that l had shown others. Then l realize that if we expect something back that it’s being selfish, being selfish is not an act of kindness or love. .Give with a glad heart and expect nothing in return.
You received perhaps, what you earned
Nita, I hope it is not like that in your on-going relationships. If it is, you may be being used or taken for granted. Giving to charities or people you may know in need is a situation where thank yous are not necessary.
just be nice if you want to,, if not it’s up to you.. tch -_-
I do not agree. It is healthy to expect others to give to me as well in whatever way they are able to. If they don’t have money, they can give love, compassion, kindness, prayers, compliments, etc . . . We should usually walk away from relationships where we get nothing back unless it is charity work for strangers.
The reason why people get themselves In those kind of relationship is bcos they expected something in d 1st place
I wonder, shouldnt the energy we expend in this manner be replenished with the gratitude of others? Is that an unreasonable expectation? Need it be from those we have shown this behaviour toward?
yeah, I expect everyone else to be nice too, is it asking for too much? 🙂
Yes.Expectation keeps you on a wanting end
Gratitude, from those we give to. Is a great reward. A simple hug, a smile. Too much? This… Is too much? How little faith do you have in humanity. True, we will not receive this from every person… However, I don’t disagree with you entirely. Be aware of this. That said, we have the right to be aware that those we give to have at least some inkling of thanks
All i can say is you should not be nice to everyone.
True
Where’s the “genuinely confused, aren’t we out of the high school mentality of what traits make you what kind of person” button?
I agree Alisha.
Actually if you expect something in return, you should check your reasons for giving .
Is it unreasonable to hope for a thank you?
My reasons for giving include enriching a healthy relationship and in healthy relationships, both people give. However, there are times we give to charities or people we don’t know that well when we see a need and in those circumstances we don’t expect anything back.
Literally one of the main points of satanism but that doesn’t stop everyone from calling it evil
?
Billy Bennett there’s like an entire chapter in the satanic bible about how you’re a piece of shit if you do things for people so that they owe you. They call it psychic vampirism. But like the entire thing is literally just about not being a dick to people and having self respect
Amen! On point.
Nah mate hold on. Should one not expect kindness in return? The love of another? (There are also many different forms of love) just saying that you shouldn’t expect anything in return is nonsense. How unfair are the humans we show this love to only to be spurned?
No human understanding or compassion in this!
I agree Ainsley
You guys should check out the meaning of the word “CODEPENDENT”
Johnson, why do you find it necessary to be unkind and rude?
Odiase, try interdependence
Love thy self as you would another but when no one is nice you still have yourself. Its not narcissist to love yourself when given moderation. Moderation is the key to survival.
Imagine a world where everyone had this consciousness and we all just helped each other… this quote is the only way to peace…
The reason to be nice shouldn’t be an expectation of anything in return, but a Love&Light chosen direction.
Reason has little to do with the act. I feel the expectation comes from an ideal of fairness.
its dumb to expect anything of anyone. its naive to expect what u want from anyone. i guess, u can hope people will treat you nice for treating them nice, but no point to expecting it, and if ure treating them nice as a way to get them to treat you nice, ure manipulating people, which is not nice.
regardless of all these eye twitching philosophies, im pretty certain the writer of this just meant a physical thing like a gift in return for being nice, not actual nice treatment in return. its kinda futile to look too closely into these fucking vague arsed memes.
Exactly.
It should always be a 2 way street in my opinion. Else you just end up a door mat.
Exactly
But sometimes a thank you, whether it be said or communicated through eye contact and a smile, wouldn’t go astray.
All human beings are entitled to some basic respect and consideration when they are kind to people. This statement sounds like something an abuser would say.
Agree m, better to give than receive
I believe it’s more blessed (not better) to give dan 2 receive
