that doesn't discount the difference between "I'm doing the nice thing to feel good about myself " vs I'm doing the nice thing in hope of getting something in return ". doing the later requires a quid pro quo relationship ,which is a disrespectful assumption in a personal relationship. it implies the other party does not have the same agency or autonomy.
