We didn't wish him happy birthday together, but that's okay. Eventually, you'll need to start remember important dates and people. Until then, we'll help you. Speaking of help, I do know that I help more than I need to and most people, but I like to think that I'm not harming myself or my family in the process. That being said, relationships shouldn't be transactional, but it's definitely a benefit of helping others.
General rule of thumb, if you can help and it doesn't hurt you, you probably should. If you feel someone is taking advantage of your kindness, then you don't need to help them. But make sure you always remember the people that helped you. Pay your debts, literal and philosophical. Life is a cookie jar, try to make sure you put more cookies in than you take out.
