Well...

[Ranma paused, looking over the ground as she tried to mull over the other woman's words.]

It's just how I've been raised. You always got to deal with other people's problems before you deal with your own. Yeah, it's annoying sometimes especially when they act like I don't ever do anything for them, but it just is what it is.

I'm not in your situation so I don't know all the particulars, but I wouldn't call people who expect everything and blame you for their own problems, friends. I'm not saying you have to take my advice, but you might think about standing up for yourself.

You're allowed to put yourself first sometimes and if they don't like it. They're probably not worth the effort anyway. Friendships and relationships come and go and sometimes you have to accept it and move on.

Find people who appreciate you just because you're you, not because you're always pulling them out of the fire.

Hey, I do stand up for myself! If I didn't, I'd be dead ten times over from whenever a random face of the day pops up with some petty grudge or score to settle. And it isn't like I do everything at their every beck and call. It's just my duty as a martial artist and a man to help people, be it in danger or with whatever they need.

That's not what I was saying. I'm not saying don't help them and that you're not capable of fighting whoever you end up facing off with. That's a different kind of standing up than what I was referring to.

And women can be just as capable of men or even more so in handling their own business. The issue comes in when it's all one-sided. Especially if they're treating you badly any time you're not useful to scare someone off for them?
