When you do something or make a decision based on pleasing somebody else. The important factor is that the direction you took (the
action or decision) was taken only to satisfy the other person and not something you would have normally chosen to do.
Regret surfaces and you secrectly hold it against that person. You may or
may not take it out on them, but it does eat you up inside.
