How would you feel if you were being critized for something you did, but you felt it was to help the situation?
Other's agree that was a wise thing to do, but some continue to antagonized you. When you try to make it right it just seems to back fire?

if you think you are in the right and did something to help another then don't worry, trust your heart

You've done what you felt you needed to do. It's done. It's over. If others keep bringing it up, politely tell them to move on. You can't undo it even if you wanted to. Angie's right. Trust your heart.

I agree with the above posters.

Politefully listen, then state that you did what you thought was the right thing to do and you did it with good intentions and a caring heart. What could be wrong about doing that?

If that doesn't work, ignoring the critic is okay too.
How would you feel if... (ignoring!)

Ya know what, all of you have made me open my eyes. As I had mentioned to someone recently I do not try and target anyone in any way. If it comes across as if I am doing that please, please, please let me know. My intentions are never to hurt anyone. EVER! I am not that type of person. I would give anyone the shirt off my back before I even think of myself.
I will take all of your advice.
Echoes, the advice you gave me of ignoring that critic is so hard ya know. People say ignore it, blow it off and as my boyfriend tells me on a daily basis in 100 year no one will even know or care. I get hurt easily and this hurt. I will go with the ignore it part, but it still bothers me all the time. I am thinking that this maybe is exactly what the critic wanted.

Abraham Lincoln said, You can't please all of the people all of the time. You did what you believed was right at that time. What more can any of us do?

Oh dear, I'm so sorry this happened to you. It's happened to me also so I very much understand your feelings.

You also sound a lot like me-- I would give the shirt off my back if it would help someone else. I have done things like that even.

I hurts so much to be misunderstood-- but like others have said and which I'm trying to do also-- is to truly know that you meant well and try very hard to ignore the hurtful responses.

Sometimes we can't make things right How would you feel if...-- so then the right thing to do is to move on.(IMO) as hard as that may be. How would you feel if...

jlove-- How would you feel if... How would you feel if... my heart is with you.
