An unpayable debt (7)

1 Name: Toru Katz : 2013-01-27 02:35 ID:9S8kYHJz [Del]

There's a girl who means everything to me, not because I date her or trivial things like that, but because she has done more for me then anybody ever could, she's saved my life 4 times, and has kept me out of jail on so many different occasions. On top of that in the time I finally decide to try and conquer my problems she still helps me, she keeps me calm even when it could endanger her.
I owe her so much, I owe her more then my life, but I don't know how to repay it, I want to at least start but i can't think of anything to repay her for all that she's done. I need advice On what I should do to start to repay her. And what should I do about her, she means everything to me, but I think me and her are drifting away. Any advice would be nice.

When ppl do things like this for you, u don't repay them. Or at least, not in the sense you're thinking of. Isn't this obvious? It's not possible to repay this person in one go; she was there for you for a long time, now you be there for her twice as much for an even longer time. Even if there's an argument and she wants to break this friendship that she has with you, do whatever you can to salvage it, cuz down the road you'll be there for her more than anyone.

>>2 it is obvious that nothing can repay this, and I will be there for her no matter what she needs but I don't know if even that will be enough I don't feel like any matter of "being there for her" will pay back what I owe her. Still I will do my best to do anything I can for her

My best friend also saved my life and rescued me from severe bullying. While I may not ever be able to repay her, I will never leave her side for sure.

>>3 Well you say you can't really pay the person back with everything she did for you. So do the opposite and pay it forward and help others as she had helped you. That is my only idea for you, unless you can save her life. And yes I did get the idea the movie "Pay it Forward".

The best thing you can do is be there for her if/when she needs it. It may be tomorrow, or it may be a long time before she really needs you, but just being there for her seems to even the playing field in my eyes. I don't really see friendship as "ok, you did this for me now I need to pay you back" but "We're both going to support each other no matter the problem or cost"

It seems that you guys, more or less suggest the same thing I was thinking, even though she has done all this for me, her job is not yet over. As I descend she keeps reaching her hand down to grab me before I fall forever. Now she has found a way to end this once and for all that will leave me happy and her unburdened as well I can slowly pay her back and then pay it forward thank you
