Being serious now, I'd go as far as was neccessary to help someone. Recently in fact, have had a friend dealing with a rough breakup (more on the guy's end then hers), and I even went as far as to cancel a date with a friend for the movies, so that I could call her that night and talk with her about what she was dealing with. As it turned out, she was going to the movies anyway that night, and there wasn't much to discuss really, but nevertheless I was willing to put aside my own plans for her sake if need be.

Very far to help those in need, including my family which has caused alot of controversary between me and my significant other. I would do it again.

been there done that will do it again. that is what friends are for...

I've done the same... For family as well...

Hmmmmmmm the last big thing I did for my friend was say "No I dont have any money for your heroin addiction.....sweat it out until you get some help" Ive done so much for my friends that the best thing to do is say no sometimes....

that's not shallow...

Depends if it is a regular thing, or a once in awhile thing.

try to breath air back into her lifeless body so her and her child can live
