Did I just make myself look like a weirdo?

[PodgyPeople]

I'm a dog owner and regularly see a couple from around the corner who also have a dog. We chat but we're not friends IYSWIM.

Anyway, I just saw the woman. Their dog was attacked by another dog over the weekend and the woman was saying that she's trying to re-arrange work to work from home as much as possible.

I work from home so I said that I'd be happy to drop in and sit with her dog for a bit so she doesn't feel too sad by herself. Then I came home, wrote my number on a bit of paper and dropped it into her house.

Now I'm worried that I've made myself look like a right weirdo - too eager and a bit over-friendly. Have I?

Sorry if that's a dumb question, I grew up with a mother who was very much focused on keeping yourself to yourself, never letting anyone know any of your business and not getting involved in anyone else's life. So I struggle to know where are the boundaries of being friendly/helpful and just plain weird

Awwww

No I don't think its weird at all .

You sound kind OP

Nice, friendly, helpful and community spirited. Not at all weirdo!

Nope. You showed your Dog Love. We all understand that.

Oh god, thank you all so much

And thanks @spaceraidersrock I'll try not to fret if they don't get in touch.

Not wierd at all. I made a good friend with someone in my street ages ago because I saw an ambulance taking someone away from her house, and I knew she had several small children. I dropped a note through her letterbox offering help. She rang to thank me-and we became friends.

In her situation I would be delighted to receive your offer of help. It is neighbourly and definitely not weird.

Thank you, you're making me feel so much better.

God, I could slap my mother with a wet fish sometimes for the weird attitudes she had.

I see normal people doing things like this all the time without it being awkward or weird but I just always feel like whenever I do things like this, I'm making some kind of massive social faux pas.
