Do you like acting motherly and nurturing to people?

Question

When I was a little girl, my family apparently pretty much all thought that I would be the marrying kind, have kids, picket fence and all that tradition. They were right about the first part, but wrong on the rest. I never developed a desire to be a mother and don't consider myself motherly. I loved animals, used to put them in boxes, baby carriages, etc., but I wouldn't play with dolls. And I didn't dress up my animals, pretending they were human. I always knew and liked the differences.

But nurturing? It's not exactly a word I would use, but basically, I guess it's a yes. I prefer supportive, I guess. Half peer, half mentor sometimes. I like for people to work on themselves, to have questioning minds, and to care about how the world perceives them. There's nothing wrong with wanting to be liked. But in today's age, being liked superficially by volumes of people, strangers online, is not a metric for one's success, or even fame or popularity, really. I'm interested in being around like-minded people who want to become better, slowly over time. I have found that that is the one intangible act, directive, that gives me the most hope about the fate of humanity. I like being part of their journey.

Only the deserving ones who will do the same for me. Not only i used to be motherly but fatherly and heroically also.
According to my experience, most people will not appreciate you helping them succeed. They'll get more entitled, want to exploit more and expect you to NOT move an inch towards success without them.
Then they'll get more jealous of you seeing that you are independent or not SPOON feeding them continuously. Then they'll spread rumors about you. So I stopped helping so deeply. I just help when needed or for the common stuff. Not being over helpful now.

I guess, I just care about people, especially my friends. I want to help, want to make sure they’re okay, and want to give them advice if asked. Not sure if that’s “motherly” or “nurturing,” more of just being friendly and involved in their lives.
Is it a bad thing? Lol.

Yeah, I think it is just my personality, but not like one of those helicopter moms. More like the fun mom who will make you laugh and be here if you need her.
