Feeding the Wrong Hunger

Gate 27: Nourishment. The trap nobody warns you about. You feel it before anyone asks. Someone's tired, someone's short on cash, someone's spiraling at midnight, and you're already reaching. You answer the call, you cover the shift, you stay on the phone until their breathing slows. That pull is real. It lives in your sacral, the seat of your body's own yes. Here's the trap. You keep giving to people who never ask how you're doing. Your shoulders stay tight even in sleep, and the tab with their number stays open at 2am. That's not generosity anymore. That's depletion wearing generosity's face. Nourishment only works both ways. Notice who reciprocates and who just drains. Caught yourself here before? Tell me where.
