Having pity on others., lalalalala. Options

[jue]

I don't know if this is just me, but I don't like it when people say stuff like "Oh I feel so bad for him/her" or "Oh, I feel so sorry for that person" Like, if I was walking down the street with some people, and we see a homeless guy, they would probably say something such as "Aww, I feel bad for him/her" But then seconds later, they would forget the whole thing. I mean, if someone really did feel pity on someone else, shouldn't they try to do something about it? Like the situation of the homeless guy, If they really felt sorry for them, they would try to help out instead of just saying how they have pity on them. I know that I'm being really hypocrital right now, cause I know that I've said how I felt bad for someone.

To make this not sound like I'm just going around complaining, I guess what I'm asking is, Is this just me? Or do some of you feel the same way?

I hate people who feel pity for others, unless it's in an understandable situation. When I see homeless people, I get sad and buy them food ( but not money, because my mom says that they might use it for drugs. Stertypical but I'm only looking out for their safety ) or I do give them money sometimes.

I hate it when you're going through an ordeal and other people know, for examply someone very close to you has died and other people say " I feel so sorry for her "

Feeling sorry and feeling pity and ( IMO at least ) looking down at me. I hate that. I try not to say " I'm sorry ... or I feel so sorry " or anything like that. Instead I tell them if you ever want to talk or If you ever need some help or something.

Yeah.
