are noble people remembered? those who put the happiness of others before themselves?

No they're shunned and lesser people spread rumors and lies about them.

nothing noble about putting other peoples happiness before themselves. you will be remembered as a cautionary tale at best
thoughtless and nonsensical altruism is error

for example: paramedics arrive on the scene what is the first thing they do? they ensure their own safety first then start treating the patient
if you cant secure yourself you fail and that means you fail other people

Most people won't, but a small amount will. Try to find someone who will. It feels nice to pour that energy into someone who at the very least notices and will reciprocate if you ever need help too.

>are noble people remembered?
Nope

You'll only be remembered if you helped the right kind of people, those with gratitude in their hearts - but "Noble People" in their "Noble Pursuits" try to help everyone, even the bad ones, even the ingratitudes
And those kinds of people, they're never content, they never say thanks, they want more and more and more until the Noble is no longer, until his heart withers, until his soul crumbles

I was once such a man, I hate being taken advantage of
I still try to help, but only to those who deserve help, not to those who *think* they deserve help

those are manipulative narcissists thinking they're entitled to be invasive as they are trying to pass under the radar with depression, humiliation, masochism, etc

no, i don't think they are. only noble people remember the other noble people they have encountered.

nta but it's like, the relationship is transactional
you do good and you expect good
you think you deserve heaven, anon?

do good for the sake of doing, expecting to be remembered, to have your name clamored and cherished, that's not good, that's vainglory

I mean I actually agree that OP is kind of odd for calling himself noble and the like. That being said I have gotten people to snap at me for expressing concern when they tell me they're depressed and I ask them why. It feels like I'm not supposed to even try to help them, or understand them. I want to know what's going on in their lives because they're my friends. Maybe they notice ulterior motives that I don't. I didn't see it as manipulative, but maybe it is and I don't realize it. It's okay if they want privacy, though they never just say that and get kind of angry that I even asked in the first place. I don't want to be bothersome to people.

The world's just not built for us autists
There's always two tones in everything - the explicit and the implicit

For us, we see only the explicit, we hear what they say - but we don't see the implicit, we don't hear what they DON'T say
I don't know how normies do it either, it's just a stupid social dynamic imo

Just say what you mean and mean what you say, why the layers?

unless you do something peace prize worthy probably not. even then do you know all the winners of the nobel peace prizes? everyone will eventually be forgotten, but the kindnesses you do DO have an impact, butterfly effect shit. But you shouldnt self sacrifice entirely and live your life entirely for other people, if youre living and youre not happy whats the point of life?
