But now you are trying to enlist third party to be used financially like it wasn’t enough that yiu are often being used. And when the person says “no” you are trying to guilt her “but the other person has kids”. You were guilted by people before but now you are doing just the same: guilting.
I’d probably focus less on what others do and more on what you do and why. You can’t control others and their actions, only your own

True. I am easily swayed by emotions of the moment when someone cries to me. I help blindly because I feel "obligated" to help and end up imposing that feeling of obligation on someone else. But that's not fair to that person.
Separating emotions of the moment from rational reasoning is something I need to work on. The rational reasoning usually comes much later, when I start to obsess "Wait a minute, this is not adding up... and that and that too...."
