My question is not about giving advice (I wouldn't do that without being asked), it's about doing concrete actions. Like I'm going to the gas station anyway, and someone gives me a few bucks and asks me to buy cigarettes for him. Would I do it? Or, would I cook a yummy (vegan) dish for a friend, when I know they would be happy about it? Such things you know...
If I don't do it, am I failing to respect the other person's free will? After all they decided to do it and that's their right, who am I to interfere? On the other side, I really have a huge resistance towards doing it.
