Do you give a lot of yourself to people?

But find that you don’t get a lot back. I try quite hard to make friends but maybe I’m a little too much for people. I like to be honest but maybe I should hold back a bit.

I used to. Not so much these days. I've realised I need my energy for myself and those closest to me who really matter.

Thankyou for that, that’s helpful! Sorry that you’ve been through that. @RubySoo

RubySoo · 56-60, F

@Strongtea im sure almost everyone goes through it at some point. You will just come to a point along the way where you realise its happening.. .like you already have, but it takes a fair while again to actually accept it and think to yrself ' ah.. feck this....im not going through it again' but it will happen one day.
I hope it happens sooner for you than it did me.

Thankyou 😊@RubySoo

I gave my energy to others to the point id listen to them talk about themselves for like 2 hours.
No more. Its reserved for myself and those who give their time to me

Strongtea · 22-25, M

Yeah, I hear you. I kinda get sucked in and I end up listening for a while.@Gangstress

[c=800000] I used to
Really really a lot but now I'm tired still old habits hardly go away completely
I'm still a people pleasurer [/c]

Yes, I think it’s hard to completely change your personality.@Raaii

I used to. But on-line you learn most just want to use you to fill some (temporary) void in them.

Strongtea · 22-25, M

Thankyou, I do feel that I’ve told people quite a lot about myself on my profile but not a lot of people seem to care. @Magenta

I used to be like that but as i got older ive become more guarded. In time you will change

Strongtea · 22-25, M

Thankyou, I suppose I’ve just realised how I am, hopefully this is me starting to change@Isthisit

Tigress · 22-25, F

I do im very bad at saying no to people and i love making someone happy so im constantly busy. It can be draining so know when to tell them its enough

Strongtea · 22-25, M

I’m always super focused on whether people like me or not, so I think I can be a bit much for people sometimes! I think I need to just be myself. It is nice to make people happy though. It’s a good thing, but tiring!@Tigress
