[quote=Anonymous]OP, this thread is fascinating to me because I have a mother who does the same. I attribute it to a deep need of validation that you don’t get from helping family. Or a “hero complex” (I’m not sure what the actual term for that is, but my mother is always looking for people to save. She spends a significant amount of time telling me stories of all the people that she helps, tips, gives cash to, pays compliments to, etc. And while I realize this seems kind, it dominates the conversation and is seemingly neverending. She enjoys discussing people that she feels sorry for and what she did to help. It’s actually kind of weird).[/quote]
