Is it possible to care too much?

I think I’ve figured it all out, that’s my weakness. I try to be there for others, get invested in them, try to make sure they’re ok, but they don’t make their intentions clear, maybe they’re just users, get what they want and off they pop. Lesson learnt, it’s not happening again, I’ll purge this weakness like every other I’ve ever had.

Its a hard balance for sure. Im a very caring person but since i dont have my own emotional stability down fully I often give more than I can handle....and im sure unintentionally to someone else I am taking more than im giving emotionally with one my friends. Hard balance for sure.

After some of my past I have gotten better at determining when im letting people use me and some of my behaviors even cause them to be able to im finding out. Always work on improving yourself in the ways you want to but dont loose yourself or how you want to be as well trying to change. Best of luck!

@Eurydicekallos you’ve echoed my thoughts perfectly. It’s like I try to heal others because I’m not able to heal myself, and it gives me some kind of purpose.

Thank you :)
