Re: Am I overreacting or do I have a right to be angry?
1. Your friend sounds like a brat.
2. So do you right now.
People are often crappy. You take the risk that you'll get screwed whenever you decide not to be a crappy person in return. Sometimes it works out well, sometimes it doesn't. Suck it up and move on. And I agree with IbnM, if you do something nice for someone, it shouldn't be with the expectation of getting something in return. Either do it because you want to or don't bother. If you spend your whole life tallying up what you get in return for your good deeds, you'll go nuts.
Two children found a bag containing twelve marbles. They argued over how to divide the toys and finally went to see Mullah Nasrudin. When asked to settle their disagreement, the Mullah asked whether the children wanted him to divide the marbles as a human would or as Allah would. The children replied, "We want it to be fair. Divide the marbles as Allah would."
So, the Mullah counted out the marbles and gave three to one child and nine to the other.
