Felix, is right. It's more like excuse. I can say that when the results of my assistance was negative. For example: I know, you need my help whith computer program. It's very urgent for you. I'm trying to help you, because I know programm the more better (I think that) than you. Ops! I broken you notebook. And then I can say: Я для тебя стараюсь... Хотел как лучше. But, If you were Russian, you answer me: А получилось как всегда...

Hello! How are you doing? It's mena: I try for you! I would how better! Maybe you not used this expressions in English, but in Russian this very common. I have a question what kind of movies do you watch? I get the impression when it's movies from NTW chanel))

"I meant well"

"Хотел как лучше" - I wanted to make it better
