Heavens yes,like when I hold the door when sum 1 walks in and they don't say thank U ! I usually am a smart ass and say;"Your Welcome" ! That usually gets a rise out of em ! People can be so rude! "Thank U"
peace PEACE.....It does not mean 2 be in a place where there is no noise,trouble,or hardwork.It means 2 be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart ! heart

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Depends what it is and how often I am doing something for them. If I am constanly doing things for someone and they never aknowledge it, it will begin to bother me, yes.
And I appreciate those who are gracious more often than those who are not, most definitely.

Well, I usually do "nice" things because I want to, not to receive thanks for doing them; however, good manners (please & thank you) are always appreciated.

yes though I must admit it happens to me quite a bit so I have started to be shocked when I actually do get a thank you.

It's nice to get a thank you. But it doesn't bother me that much, since I'm doing a nice thing not to get a thank you, but because I want to do a nice thing.

Not really. If I do something nice for someone else, I usually do get a thank you. If I don't get a thank you, I just keep doing whatever I'm doing. I don't do nice things to get a thank you. I do them because I want to shrug





I personally always say thank you though razz

As silly as it sounds, I always try to think along the moral high ground, as in WWJD.

Sometimes it works, sometimes not. biggrin

It sometimes bothers me. But I know me, I don't always remember to say thank you, so I try my best not to hold it against anyone.

I try to do things without expecting something back but I'm a hypocrite. I do get miffed if the person doesn't thank me. It rarely happens though.

I will say, if others around me are being aknowledged and I'm not, I do tend to take it personally. Maybe I'm not as kind as I thought, maybe I'm not doing a good job, etc.

For small things, not so much. When you literally go the distance to rescue someone in their life and they don't say thank you, That really absolutely sucks and I hate it.

It does not bother me at all. When I do something for someone it is because I want to, because it is the right thing to do. I never do it to get something in return.

In fact I am often surprised when something for someone I do gets acknowledged because I don't expect something in return.
