Deceitful People Who Take Advantage of You While Acting Innocent

We meet people every day—at work, on the bus, or in other places. Unfortunately, some people have hidden motives and try to take advantage of situations, often with an arrogant attitude. They do this with an innocent face, like it’s perfectly fine.

The Story:

I ran into my elderly neighbor near the entrance of our building. She asked me to check her computer because she couldn’t open any websites. When I looked, I saw that the icon showed no signal to my Wi-Fi. Three days earlier, I had replaced my router and changed the password. I remembered that 8 years ago, she asked for my help because she couldn’t contact her son in China and didn’t have internet. I installed Skype for her and connected her to my Wi-Fi but forgot to disconnect it. I told her she had been using my internet all this time.

— What should I do now? she asked.
— Get your own internet. It’s about $4 a month. I think you can afford that.
She replied:
— Just set it up like it was before. You have internet. Why not share?

Of course, I said no. She didn’t thank me for using my internet for 8 years, and now she doesn’t say hello to me anymore. But I still choose to trust people.
