I just love that I’m sticking up for myself

My whole life I just wanted people to like me and I realized that I was wasting my time because I could give someone my all and it wouldn’t be enough. I hurt myself thinking that everyone was my friend. Well I’m done with that. I have my support system and myself. I’m now so happy that I can validate myself and be kind to myself. Now I’m confident in setting boundaries and demanding respect. Don’t allow someone to make you feel like being treated like a person is an option. You deserve respect and if people think you’re mean for it then so be it.

@Shyness98,

It is exhausting to try being*enough* for others. None of us deserve to feel that we need to do so . I am proud that you saw through the faze and decided standing up for your self! That's the spirit! 🍪🍪🍪 for your awesome self!!!


It's comforting to have a healthy support system. Yes it is necessary to set boundaries and . All of us deserve to be treated with respect It is disappointing when people don't.That doesn't make you or anyone mean. I am happy that you are feeling better and more confident about yourself.
