[quote=Anonymous]Yup born a pleaser as well, hate confrontation but eventually reach a boiling point after being taken advantage of and blow up. What changed for me? The death of a close family member. Put everything into perspective and made me realize time is too short to be living a role that is not making me happy. I've lost family and friends over my new assertiveness but I'm much happier with the outcome. Those that are no longer my friends were the worse offenders taking advantage of my need to please. Now people listen when I talk, they realize that I'm not going to feed an army for the holidays without help and that I'm no longer a floor mat for free babysitting. I'm not a jerk about stuff but I'm much more aware of my own needs and what makes me happy and I've gotten much better about making sure things are equal. [/quote]
