After leading B on for 4 or 5 posts, saying that you were excellent in an area where she had trouble, implying that you had advice to give, and then just bowing out... Pretty uncaring it seems; not supportive, imo. If you have advice to give to someone in pain, and your goal is to help that person, then you will give it--even if it takes 5 posts and has to end up on the faith board.
If you choose another "path" of action like bowing out, it is hard to believe you really planned to help at all. People do what they want. If you wanted to help, you would.
This distresses me, that you or anybody would do that to a poster here. It doesn't feel honest or ethical to me; it feels like game-playing.
I apologize to you, B, for this occurrence.
