When I'm nice, I expect to be nice to.
When I help, I expect help when I need it.
When I care, I expect to be cared for.
When I share, I expect sharing.
When I befriend, I expect a friend.
When I love, I expect the feeling to be mutual.
Even then, I love, I befriend, I share, I care, and I help.
Does it still make me an egoist, if none of my gestures were returned?
Am I still an egoist, if I continue doing all those, even when none of my expectations were reached?
There are only so many pieces of me I can give away before I fade into nothing.
But what hurts most is that I'm not even sure if I'm doing the same to some of my friends.
Am I taking them for granted too?
