The original story centered on a woman who narrated how a man insisted on paying her transportation fare despite her refusal, later asked for her phone number, and then took back the money when she declined again. The incident sparked debate about boundaries, entitlement, and whether acts of kindness should come with expectations.
Reacting to this, a man commented, “I once asked a question that who turned relationships into a transactional thing… Now I know it’s the men.” His statement shifted the focus back to the core issue in the story: the tendency to attach conditions to help and view basic gestures as investments meant to yield personal rewards. The comment criticized this mindset, arguing that it undermines genuine goodwill and turns human interaction into a transaction rather than a choice freely made.
