Why do people always try to take advantage of me? even my online friends?

[Anonymous]

Almost everyone in my life I meet try to take advantage of me?

perhaps you are too giving and you are too willing to help and you do not have adequate boundaries. its ok to say no to helping people or to stop helping someone when you feel like you're being taken advantage of

i do sometimes but then they keep asking after and i feel bad

this is why.. you feel bad and you keep giving.. its ok to say no.. you need the boundaries.. not everyone is deserving of your help sweetie

Is there more context you can add, please?

my friend asked me to give her my resume so I don't know what she wants to do wth it, pretty much copy it. Also, she'll treats me bad infront of people and similar to almost all my other friends. Also my friends online that I've been friends with for a while try to rip me off. My partner in college tried to make me do most of the work. Also there's this girl who keeps asking me for my assignments.

It seems like you can’t distinguish what a friend is. Real friends don’t use people like this, I would just stop talking to all of them. Ass far as the online friends go, I don’t think you realize that they are only your friends to get money from you. You need to be able to read the signs better and set your standards higher

she now keeps bothering me to hang out with her and i pretty much just answer with a short reply or ignore her but she always finds a way to come back into my life. because our mothers know eachother so she'll come to my house randomly and come to find me. and now I have no friends because I feel like theyre all like this. Wow i didn't realize that about my online friends... Thanks honey

Because you allow it, you're a people pleaser.

[britboy94]
