I thought this would be an interesting topic to share.

Lyinar Ka`Bael obviously shouldn't have said:
Why would your worst enemy save your life?
Seriously, unless they had some ulterior motives, they should be glad to let you die.
So, I'd have to say my treatment of them would remain the same.
If someone hated me with a passion, I doubt they would lift a finger to help me.
Now if it's just someone that dislikes me, I could see that. But my worst enemy I couldn't see saving my life for anything.
More likely to dance the Macarena on my grave.

I would not be able to stand by and watch anybody die without trying to help them somehow.
If my worst enemy saved me, I'd thank them, but chances are I still wouldn't like them.
But the question was if your worst enemy saved *your* life. I doubt someone that honestly hated my guts enough to be my worst enemy would save my life.

By that logic both must lose, because you are each others worst enemy. Or you become friends and both RPG storyline action ensues
Nope, because one is obviously good, as he will have a name like 'Lance' and will be currently employeed stopping his Worst Enemy, or the person his Worst Enemy works for

Unless your worst enemy is your sister, in which case that's just icky.
I dunno. I have a problem. I have too many worst enemies. I have Jania, who I share an ongoing rivalry and mutual dislike of, but past childhood she's never actually tried to kill me, and I've politely let her remain humanoid. Soooooo...if she saved me, or I saved her, chances are we'd just end up going back to the usual after a while.
On the other hand someone like Corrozhen tries to save me, I'm not stupid. He pulls me up off the edge of a cliff, I'm going to turn right around and try to toss him off it. Any shmuck can get into wizarding school; only the dirty-fighting pragmatists graduate.

I'd probably just say, "Thanks." and shrug it off. I do that with a lot of things.

Depends on what the deal was...
I mean they take a bullet for me? Tell me about the poison in my food or about the bomb in my truck... Or just call and tell me not to go over to that lady's house, her husband is home... Give me an organ transplant... I mean kinda depends on what the situation is. I would not expect the few enemies I have to piss on my back if I was on fire much less save my life.

Lyinar Ka`Bael had this to say about dark elf butts:
Well yeah *I* would save my worst enemy, too, cuz I'm a cream puff inside. Couldn't stand by and watch a life be snuffed out if there was something I could do.But the question was if your worst enemy saved *your* life. I doubt someone that honestly hated my guts enough to be my worst enemy would save my life.
Couldn't the same be said of your worst enemy though? 
I mean who's to say your worst enemy isn't just a cream puff inside and unable to stand by and watch anyone die. I mean if it's good enough for you, wouldn't is sufice to say it's possible that it's good enough for them as well..
Sorry the two statements in the same post made no sense to me when read back to back.
However respect earns respect and if my life was save regardless of the individual, and for whatever reason... I'd probably, knowing me, forgive differences and try and move on.

Vorago had this to say about the Spice Girls:
Your worst enemy SHOULD save your life, because your worst enemy ALWAYS wants to kill you himself, and if you are dying by some other means, it is his duty as a Worst Enemy to save you in order to fight you fairly one on one at a later time to eventually lose anyways.
Exactly right, Chthon has only saved me when its not him that has put my life in jeapordy, see, he doesn't like the competition.
You try to forget
Like sharp stabbing pains

Like when I free sparr at tournaments, I want to win by points, NOT time. Victories by time are just....eh.
Speaking of "half-baked villain wannabes," why haven't you taken him out yet? I see you fighting alongside him more often than anything else (Speaking of which, I need to continue that SL, don't I?). I can see wanting him for yourself, but I've never even seen you fight him.

Lyinar Ka`Bael had this to say about Optimus Prime:
But one is the Good Guy. The Good Guy always triumphs
Oh you poor deluded girl...
sarcasm r gud.
However, to the original question, I don't really know. I do not have a true enemy.
Therefore, I would say thank you, and offer to shake hands, make peace...
Then shoot him in the face, twice. Cause you KNOW one bullet can go right thru without killing.. but the odds of death are much greater with two bullets that death will happen.
If I dont have a gun, I will simply wait for them to turn away, and grab the nearest blunt object, and proceed to beat them til they fall down, then beat them some more, until they roll onto thier stomach to escape my wrath. THEN, While they lay prone, with thier spine exposed, I would stomp on said exposed spine, until it stops going "KRUNCH" and starts making a slightly mushy "WHooff" sound. Once I know the spine has been crushed beyond repair, I would call 911, thus saving his life in return, and making everything even.

(You know.. it would have made much more sense to post under my own account. Being as my wife is much, much meaner than I. **TAL!@**)
When I get to it, you'll realize how seriously 
it really is. A bit of a spoiler, but Chthon follows me around constantly, being sure to wipe out friends and colleagues along the way, ie burning down the inn where I stayed at one night in anger at missing me, roasting the innkeeper and his family alive along with the few guests. That, and we duel more often than Parce posts something funny.
