Dilemma...of sorts

So now I'm interested. If it happens tomorrow would you do the same?

 

No, the next time I might stop and ask her.

I now have images of me having to hurry along side her, as she was "making progress", albeit with some effort!

 

:-)

Perhaps next time she will offer you some assistance if that is the case Aaron.

 

it doenst hurt to ask though, most people are kind enough to say no if they dont need it.

From my experience they generally like a bit of gentle help.

I do it all the time young or old if they are struggling I help,I do agree the right approach is important.

 

hmmm sorry to bump this but I personally , as sad as it is in this day and age would have walked past.

I previously in a supermarket asked a lady if i could help her reach something as she was half hanging out the chair to reach it!! she snapped at me and shouted in a rather loud voice that just because she was in a wheel chair she wasnt helpless!

she then passed me again near the checkouts and shouted again at me!! I was mortified as everyone looked at me!!

all i said was "do you need a hand with that?"

ok everyone will respond different!! but once bitten twice shy!!
