hello, my question is: which one is correct?
this was done to me
or this was done for me
in other words what is the main difference between for and to?
and my second question is what is the main difference between past simple tense,present perfect and pluperfect
thanks a lot

"This was done to me" means that "I" was the object of the action.
"This was done for me" means "I" was (supposed to be) the benificiary of the action, or that the action was done in my place.
