I have regretted both. Sometimes you’ll just get punished for trying to help.
I have regretted, sometimes for years, not indulging in a selfish impulse.
Oh there are plenty of instances of kindness I’ve regretted. Far more than cruelty since I avoid cruelty. Still, I’d rather regret a failed act of kindness than succeed in an act if cruelty.
I’ve regretted once act of kindness. I once helped a stranded student get back to his country. It was, of course, a scam. A fairly elaborate one, including remote co-conspirators etc, but a scam nonetheless.
Kindness to those who genuinely deserve it is a good thing. Just don’t allow your kindness to make you naive
I can think of a couple acts of kindness I’d probably not repeat. But generally I try to be kind anyway.
I have regretted being kind to someone who turned out to be an evil piece of shit.
