You know I was that person once that did everything for everyone and was always taken as a free ride.
Now I careful with who I help, if you do the right thing by me I will always go out of my way to help as much as I can but once I'v been burn then don't bother me again I have no problems saying no now

I think some people find it easy to use people who are open to helping them. It is important to learn boundary lines, and realise that sometimes helping someone else is hurting yourself. There are a lot of people who would expect you to go the extra distance without blinking twice, but would never do the same for you if it were the other way around. I think you must be a really caring person, and people like to prey on that. Cutting those people out of your life is great though. Now you have the ability to use that time and energy on meeting and socialising with other people that value and respect you.

Unfortunately it's the other friends that feel the brunt of the black dog emanating from there friend, and if in close proximity they feel it's them as the air is thick and chilly.....mixed messages are received. But if you outside person you're the best thing since slice bread. Very hard when living with some one.

Much Thanks Tania......

I did not make this thread for attention for myself more to see if there were folks out there who were like me --& was the world becoming a place where is everyone was all about THEM!
It helps to clear my head sometimes....and get rid of the demons!
Its all good but it does change you a lot in one's view of people ....

DD I'm sorry I missed this thread. Yes I get taken advantage of - mostly in the work place though.

I think the world has become more of a place where everyone thinks it's all about them, I sense more shallowness and a lack of willingness to commit to others - people are more self focused, relationships are expendable and there's a lot less empathy.

Hugs for you! xo

Yep feel like I'm only here when my kids want something found when I'm needing some help they don't seem to care much but that's life
