How do you tell someone they saved your life?
Please don't laugh at me... But this boy I've liked for almost 2 year messaged me telling me he likes me and that he likes me for awhile and this was the begging of the new year and it just really surprised me because i was so depressed and sad that i convinced myself I'm not pretty or worth living and he saved me and i really need to thank him but how? Do i just come out and say "You saved my life thank you so much"?
What should you say to someone who saves your life?
Thank you for very much for saving my life. I will forever be grateful. If I can’t pay it back somehow, I will make sure to pay it forward somehow.Now I officially have two birthdays, thanks to you, and I will celebrate both of them every year from now on.And I will make sure I invite you to both of them, every year.
What does it feel like to have someone save your life?
Shit.It’s scary. You feel really, really, really indebted to that person.I’ve saved a few lives and I’ve been saved a few times. It’s hard to say exactly what it feels like, and the emotions depend a lot on the situation.I think that a lot of people are saved from dying every minute, and they probably don’t even notice it. In this case, you feel approximately nothing.
Would you give your life to save someone else's?
The altruistic answer is yes. Philosophically, though, we’re faced with questions in this situation.Is your life worth more than someone else’s? Is theirs worth more than yours?Who should decide such things? Do we personally have the right to decide?They’re not easy questions. Remember, our “life” affects the people around us, the people who love us, the people who rely upon us, the people who sacrificed for us . . . we’re not individual actors in this show.When I was younger, single with no kids and just cruising through life . . . the wife of a friend was dying of a rare cancer. They had two small children who were going to grow up without their mother. And frankly, their dad was a pretty emotionally distant guy. If I could have swapped with this young mother, I would have, because the math worked out. One life (okay, I’d make my mom sad) in return for one plus two good childhoods, and maybe two lives without nasty abandonment issues. Seems like a winner. Maybe.That last question — should we decide this ourselves — raises an issue about individualism and the self. Deciding to “save” someone appears to be selfless. Yet the action is saying I, myself, am so important that I get to decide whether to alter someone’s destiny, or god’s will, or what have you. Whenever the I-Me-Mine is part of an action, beware. What seems right is often wrong.How do we know this saved life won’t just become a death another year from now? Or that the saved won’t squander their life, or wind up doing more damage than you would have?So you’re trading a moderate amount of certainty — your self-determination — for a gamble that the saved life will somehow be as good or better than yours.To make a gamble worthwhile, there should be a reward possible. Gambling a life should carry a very big possible reward, or avoid something really bad. That’s why Secret Service guys will take a bullet for a president.It’s like the end of that movie Saving Private Ryan, when Tom Hanks tells Matt Damon to make the sacrifice of Tom’s life count. Somebody, sometime, sacrificed so you can live. Do you have the right to gamble that away, saving someone and betting that they’ll do better with their life than you’ll do with yours?

When someone says you saved my life meaning?
to save one's life Even if one's life depended on it, as in I couldn't eat another bite to save my life, or Betty wouldn't climb a mountain to save her life. This hyperbolic expression nearly always follows a negative statement that one wouldn't or couldn't do something. Anthony Trollope used a slightly different wording in The Kellys and the O'Kellys (1848): “I shan't remain long, if it was to save my life and theirs; I can't get up small talk for the rector and his curate.” http://www.dictionary.com/browse/to-save... http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/to+s...
If someone saved your life, what should you give them in return? How can you repay them?
Give them your gratitude. No amount of material possessions can matter in a time like this. Unless you have a million dollars to spare. But if it's not significant enough to change that person's life, don't worry about it.
What do you get someone who literally saved your life?
Speaking from experience here, there is no gift greater than life. You will never find a gift that will "pay" for the token of love that person gave when saving your life. I have saved my mom's life once and she saved mine so I guess in that odd sense, were are even. But even so, I have saved others too but I don't ever expect anything for doing a good deed. A heartfelt thanks is all I need. As I tell others, one good deed deserves another. If you want to repay the man for his actions that day, make them a close friend of yours. A gift of love is equal to the gift of life.
Is it true that if someone does something to save your life, you are indebted to them for the rest of your life?
Thanks for the A2A.Logically analysing this from the human perspective, i think we tend to view every favor receieved from another as deserving a reciprocity. You know that proverbs the states ‘every good turn deserves another', maybe not even but considerably reciprocal. We often express gratitude when done a favor, perhaps this alone clears out the indeptedness.Since we can't resonably write off all favour we receive from others, a ‘thank yway might go a long way. For instance, say a child from a destitute family developed leukaemia and gracefully with the support of a non-profit organization, they were able to raise significant fund from the sympathetic public to treat on the child. If by chance, he gets cured, do you really think he'd be indebted to the public for the rest of his life?An absolute ‘NO'.All that is rationally required is for his parent to express gratitude to the public and particularly the non-profit organization through a reliable and mass-reaching channel.Except if you get a loan or reach some sort of contractual or customary agreement, No one expects equals for a favor. But get me right, they expect something in return whether tangible or intangible.Moreso, i critically think the real question here is if there's anything like selflessness. Better put, ‘is there anything like altruism?’Do people do things or assist others expecting something in return?Maybe only a handful of people do that but to be generic, i think there's no such thing as altruism. Even the pious or religious ones do charity expecting God to bless them for their good deeds.Charity organization expect some sort of recognition from the government, media or their immediate environment.So, back to your question:Is there anything like selflessness?No, everyone expects something in return.
