Lisa KleypasDon't ever trust men with good intentions. They'll always disappoint you." Leo
About This Quote
There is a fine line between good intentions and good intentions gone wrong. Many people have a desire to do good but choose to do it in a way that is actually harmful. If you have ever been hurt by someone who tried to help, you know what I mean. When you need help, you want someone with good intentions.
You want someone who will be there for you and care about your well being. Unfortunately, most of the people that help us are not equipped with a degree in psychology and a complete grasp on human nature. They only know the right thing to do if they’re doing it for us – or they think we’ll appreciate it – but not necessarily for them.
