Yea, I do feel like saying no sometimes but I always end up saying yes to everything. Too me, I guess its because I don't know the right times to say yea and the times to say no. If I let someone borrow my things, I always end up getting comments like "dude, you need to learn to say no," or "you're too nice man, you need to stop being to nice." If I say no, I get comments like "dude, that was messed up/mean, why didn't you let him/her borrow it?" or "you say no, but you want others to let you borrow their things to you, huh?" I mean its hard. I have known other people say no to their friends just because when they need something and they are still friends. To me though, when I do it, I'm considered a "mean" person. I just don't know the times to say okay or no.

I have no problem saying no at all. I understand being put on the spot, but, if you're honest I think people would appreciate it more. Look, I know we all have to do some things that we don't like or want to do, but saying no is real easy.

Well that would have to be a circle of fear. No is a good word not a bad word.

I am always in a position like that Everything I do, not from my heart. I can not say no. I have to say yes, though my heart said no.

Because, I have to say yes. I do not have the right, to say no. I must be obedient to someone, so I have to say yes, though my heart said no. Maybe, if I have a lot of money. I could say no to everyone. During this time, I bother everyone. So, I have to say yes, to everyone who has been bothered by me. And this makes me very miserable.

Hiya adz, All depends sometimes it can be hard to say no especially if everyone is on the side of the other person who is asking you to do something for them. Just lately I have had to do a lot of those things I donĀ“t want to do but no one will do them for me so I have to do them at least for now. Of course I do have ways of getting around them that is a secret how I do that as someone I know might just read this and find me out but I could not care less anyhow.xxx

Hiya adz, Alas adz when you have Family to see to that becomes rather twisted although you want to say no you have to comply or leave them for ever. Oh I want to say no a lot of times but I do get my own way a lot of times lol.xxx

Hi adhyz: I understand your point. I have been in these situations and as I have grown up I have learnt that is better to do what you really feel is the right thing and not let yourself be manipulated. If you don't do things this way you will feel worst later. No matter how angry a person feels with you or what he/she tells you, it's better to broke up with someone for doing what you think is right instead of living a lie. ALVARO

Some kind of people are way to nice, and they won't say "no" to other people's request even though they have million of reasons of do not want to. Somehow, they have to learn it the hard way, why not learn to say "no" once, and gradually, you know how to reject people's request later on. So much to learn nowadays.

It can be both easy and difficult to say No, depending on the person's nature. I'm a NO person as i've learnt precious lessons from all my YES of the past. We have to learn to reject when we are uncomfortable with certain things and it's alright to lose friends who force their will on us, than to lose ourself along the way. Whatever we are asked to do, we tend to do it out of goodwill and it doesn't mean we are there for the taking, being taken advantage of. I will say NO to things i don't agree upon and it's not that difficult after all.

You said the point. Personally I think I am a person who do not like others to order me to do something, but I sometimes do not have the courage to refuse them face to face. When I admit it, I feel so disgusting about it... Maybe that is what the reality has taught us or force us to do so. We can hardly always follow our own heart.

Many times happen with me. May be due to relation pressure or friendship. Normally i dislike to use my vehicle by someone, but sometime difficult to say no to people close to me. Many time (some) people come for help when I really busy in other work But I hope people around me may understand that they asked to me is true and on right time.

i see..sometimes we want to say no, if somebody want to borrow our book maybe, but we doesnt want to make them angry and we had to say Yes for their request..oh my God..i always do like that several times

I say yes only when I don't want to insult or embarrass someone. When I feel that someone is asking me to do something which he/she can do easily without any problem, than I have no problem in saying no. We say yes when our heart says no because we don't want to hurt someone, which in my opinion is good. This attitude shows that you have feelings and you care. This is something we call as sacrifice.

sacrifice??but why we must give heart for anybody who had insulted you??do you can still say yes for them??

It's more polite to come up with an excuse than bluntly saying no. The choice is yours though, if you feel like someone is using you to get things done then you should definitely say no so they will stop taking advantage of you. If it's something they can do themselves, they shouldn't have to ask you to do it. It's nice to be helpful and kind, but there's a limit.

it do happen in life when your heart says no and you have to say yes. i face such situations in workplace where people often ask for unwanted favors. it depends on your nature how you deal with the people. people take advantage of your soft, kind nature and keep asking for favors. so i think it depends on you how you deal with people but in general, i think it is hard for people to say no.

I don't particularly like saying no..especially if it is something that I know the other person wants very badly. I also don't have a problem saying it though if I know it is something that isn't good for me or that makes me very uncomfortable. I love helping others and most of the time if it comes to that, I don't want to say no, but if it's something that could be a negative for me or my family...no is not a problem for me.

I have this prob too especially with people who are close. Even if I want to say no I cannot, and end up saying yes and sometimes feel really irritated after that.. Another place I have the same prob is front of my boss.. He is really strict and he often sets me unreasonable deadlines... But then I would feel like screaming at him saying no I cannot do it but unfortunately the only thing that comes out is a meek yes!!
