How I make everyone stop seeing me as some pushover?

I'm starting to think I have to be less friendly and stop smiling so much. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Even the people I always see as my closest friends seem to take advantage of me a lot. And I feel like I just let it happen because it doesn't affect me much.

@bijouxbroussard yes, in real life I tend to take a lot from people because conflict stresses me out. I also don't want to show I'm angry and then blow things out of proportion

@rickfreeman15 Ah, I understand. Being able to say “sorry, no” when you’re [b]not[/b] angry will often stop things from escalating to the point that you’re feeling frustrated and used. Nip things in the bud, so to speak. 🙂
