Do you feel you are assertive enough?

I am a really nice person and i try very hard not to hurt other peoples feeling. I am also a bit shy but it seems these days people come out and say anything they feel regardless of who it hurts. I think those are the aggressors but I think one should be able to assert themselves when neccessary I feel as you get respected and understood and not walked over like a doormat.This is natural for some people i have to admit i am working on this. But i tell you assertive people are often respected. Isnt this a good thing. Have you had a problem being assertive.

Kind of depends on the situation although I have developed more of a back bone over the years. I use to take so much and I would never speak up for myself. That was the worst because I would keep it inside and it would eat at me. As the years have passed I've learned to say what I want/mean.
