my husband once let this guy come to our house so he could use his tools to fix his truck . how did that go ? not to well , this guy ended up stealing from us no way ! i can not stand when people do shady things like that . we you able to get your stuff back ? did he get in trouble ? we did not get nothing back , my husband did not want to report it . he said obviously the guy needed it worse than he did ! which made me mad yeah i would have been mad too . if he needed something he should have at least asked . stealing is never okay .
The husband's willingness to empathize with the person who took something from him, assuming their need was greater.
