if i observe that water makes things wet, the water didn't "help" me by simply being what it is.

But the water is not a person you are having a discussion with. I helped you make your point. And I said I am glad I could help. :)

So did I not help you make the point you were trying to make?

i see you're struggling to comprehend the metaphor, so i'll explain: no conscious act or decision of yours "helped" me. i simply observed you being yourself. you get no credit for that.

i simply observed you being yourself. you get no credit for that.

I don't get credit for being myself?! I mean, who would get credit for me being me, then? You said I proved your point. So I helped you. Which makes us friends. So we're cool now, right?

you have an extraordinary need for the approval of others-- me in particular. one might go so far as to classify it as a neurosis.
