HTHF

Allies that are well-intentioned, or vulnerable and you want to help, or they offer help, but…

Hard to Help Friends

• They’re incompetent and make constant mistakes
• They lack self-awareness about their faults
• They lack social/political awareness and have gaffaws
• They’re prickly/bristly and particular about things
• They think they’re helping but are actually causing more problems via side effects
• They are malcontent
• Their problem (fear/anxiety) is too great
• They need to solve it themselves and you can only lead them to water
• They are constantly playing the victim card
• They can’t stop making things worse
