Do you feel like you have to/can please everyone?

Question

SteveSmith1985 · Accepted Answer

No. I really really don't feel I have to please everyone. I am totally fine not pleasing people. Most people I couldn't care less if I can please them or not. Those I do care about... I'll do my best. And if that's not good enough for someone... I guess they can get upset about that if they want. But that's not something I'm gonna worry about. You're not getting better than the best I can do. If that's not good enough... that's your problem (in most cases anyway).

No why would you please your opponent? How by losing? You get no where in life if you don't take up any conflicts. It's required to change your life towards something better instead of people losing respect for you. Which is also a way to not please people. So it's impossible to please everyone unless you are in a very sparse populated place with no disagreements.

I don't have to and I can't, we will never be able to please everyone and some people will always say something no matter what, so the best is to not listen cause you will not please everyone, so please yourself

CrimsonAngel09 · Answer

Yep, to fit in society's looks of perfection.

Gotta be tall, not short.

Gotta have long slender legs, not short thick ones.

Gotta have lush big lips, not small and kind of thin.

Gotta be perfectly skinny, not even four to five pounds over.

Gotta have small perky boobs, not big saggy ones.

Etc., etc..

Nope. Ricky Nelson famously said "You can't please everyone so you've got to please yourself. "

Sour-rose · Answer

Oh, I used to.. until i realized something "Am I really gonna use my time to please  everyone? " My name is a indicator to the right answer, I think

Mimi_758 · Answer

No, i don't feel like I have to please everyone in your life would be miserable if you try doing that and on the other hand, there is no possible way you can please everyone

SnowedIn · Answer

Have to? No. Everyone? No. But I am a people pleaser. So there's that. *this message sent from timeout*

AimeeKyle · Answer

When I was younger, yes…. and I tried/succeeded most of the time. It is extremely stressful and tiresome though. As I have gotten older I have come to realize you cannot make everyone happy all the time….. I had a significant drop in stress once I figured this out.

Not anymore, I think people may actually like when we don't give into everything, it makes us more valuable

Sixgunsound · Answer

No and I dont even bother to try. It is a fools errand to make the attempt since it is impossible.

mstbooblover · Answer

Oh no, there's no point even trying to please everyone, but I always try to be polite and avoid as the pest every form of useless bickering.

ShadezMcgee · Answer

Still a recovering people pleaser, honestly. Still find myself struggling to say "no" at times. It has been ingrained in me as a kid and it is hard to unlearn.

DizzyDesii · Answer

Thankfully not anymore. I was very hard on myself about this in elementary/high school/college. And now i feeel freeeee! Well except on occasion if its their bday or Christmas, im tempted to be a people pleaser again

FilmGuy93 · Answer

I used to, but I don't feel that way anymore. I've gotten a lot more confident in myself, and I don't care about pleasing people as much these days.

Jaximus-Lion · Answer

I know it's not possible to please everyone, I do the best I can. Beyond that, it is out of my control.

PointTaken · Answer

I like to help people and try to cheer them up. Yet I don't try to please everyone. I am me and they can suffer through my personality.

fredaarhin · Answer

No, I don't feel like I need to please anyone

Anonymous · Answer

Yeah. I have authoritarian parents. Sadly I fear them. To me, and other people raised by this kind of parenting, the parents are the gateway and sometimes the only way to get what you want from them is to please them like getting good grades in school, doing what is commanded of you, or do what they expect you to do.

mandyfire98 · Answer

I have to remind myself that I can't make everyone happy.

LovingJo · Answer

LickSmack · Answer

I certainly do. I'm a people pleaser. Problem is, you can't make everybody happy, and it makes me feel like I've fallen short when I do. I got a lot of learning to do. I just gotta chill.

Snakeyes7 · Answer

I used to but I learn that you can't and that you really shouldn't try to please everyone. It's a tough thing to realize but once you come to it, nothing will free you more mentally.

Hispanic-Cool-Guy · Answer

Nope. At my age and life experience you just don't have the energy for it nor care to. Screw people man, no one is going to help you pay your bills anyways.

HippieVeganJewslim · Answer

I know not the key to success, but the key to failure is to try to please everyone. There will always be one who is against You, be You right or wrong. How others feel is none of my business.
