Angry Ungrateful people

Wish i understood why people were so ungrateful.....You bend over backwards for them buy them a car upkeep that car upkeep and repair their home buy every peice of material/part needed for said upkeep of either..You buy yourself a truck let them drive it for 6 months as they have no car and cant afford one then you buy them said car after being fed up of not having your truck nor them making an effort to get their own car and just plain taking advantage of you Then after giving them said car you buy new tires for it put better headlights in it install a radio in it fix the rust fix the gas lines all new brakes and a MAF and then when a 24 dollar cam sensor goes bad they call you bitching that they want something else and for me to take my peice of **** car back When ive dumped 900 into buying it then another 500 in parts and they cant buy a 24 dollar part That i offerd to put in for free taking time out of my day costing me money as if im fixing the car i cant be working and making money. Im fed up with ungrateful people Can somebody please provide some insight on how to handle this I dont think very clearly when im mad...And im at my witts end with this kind of stuff thanks for reading my vent

I would do as they requested, go pick up the car and wash your hands to it.

X2!. I have the same attitude towards family and friends. And their are those that just burn you in the end. Don't let it dissuade your graceful manner. When these type of people show their real color, I just wash my hands of them and move on. Some of them have been Family members and I sometimes get grief from the others about it. Oh Well. Not one to be taken twice. Fool me once~Your fault....Fool me twice~My fault

I know exactly how you feel i let my aunt drive 4 of my cars and what did i get i got two wrecked and left on the side of the road one impounded and a motor blown in the other and she never once made an effort to pay me back not counting the 1400 dollar phone bill she racked up and the 4 months she lived at my house rent free.....That was all my fault i guess and she wonders why i want nothing to do with her either once again her life is for drugs just like my mom....Im one of the few non druggies on my moms side of the family..Oh yeah and i found out said aunt was responsible for the 25 grand worth of tools stolen from me...my moms side of the family is horrible......

93 lesabre-wrecked
2000 lumina-wrecked
89 silverado-blown motor
93 grand am gt-impounded liscence plate snapped in half by cops cost me 250 to get it out
