You asked why you deserved support, what have you done to deserve support.

My own personal response follows.

Liking someone is not "deserved". When I like someone, it just happens naturally and feels natural. The person does not "earn" it or "deserve" it; it just happens. When it happens, it doesn't change just because, let's say, the person does SI or does not meet goals. Of course I want the person not to SI and I want the person to meet their goals, but I still like them, and want to support them, even if they do SI and even if they don't meet their goals.
