[QUOTE="nlj, post: 626887, member: 17650"] Yes you are right. He wasn't asking me for anything. He was just letting me know that he was in a bad state. He always contacts me if he is particularly 'down'. He seems to need to share his suffering with me. If he had asked me outright for money then I would have been quite angry and would have been less likely to help out. He rarely asks me for anything these days, since I told him that I was 'detaching' from it all, but I found it practically impossible not to help. £20 is only about $14. It got him a basic bus ride to the nearest city. It was my choice to pick him up. I know it might have been better to not do anything and let him get himself out of the self-inflicted situation, but I think that would have led to a call from a hospital. H says this pattern of behaviour can't continue. [/QUOTE]
