I'm such a big giver and that's great, I usually assume! But, the problem comes in when people notice that and takes full advantage of your kindness!! I always seem to be taken advantage of, but can't help but to try n help people! Seem to always put myself last, it's like I'm drawn to it. I used to be pretty selfish and kinda mean, now I think maybe subconsciously, I'm trying to make up for something I did! Don't know, but I can't close the door on people! Taripre$

Yep I am. My hubby asks why I don't care when people are justing using me for whatever the help may have been. I do what I do because that is what I am supposed to do. Maybe my "always helping" stance will rub off on others you know. If not, I'm still doing what I should. I think the solution to all the worlds problems is simply this, helping and caring about people you are in contact with. Notice I didn't say to have to "like everyone" just care! Keep on my friend, keep on!

Sounds like me and my girl! She always gets on me about helping people and no one seems to want to try n help me now that I'm in my situation! I understand her, but my position is, I don't look for people to help me. If they do, fine, if not, I still have to do what I have to do regardless! Taripre$

Hmm, maybe I should try that. These people who pretend are taking most of my givings Then, there are those who can't or don't have the means to help themselves that get left out! Taripre$
