Where Do You Draw the Line in a Relationship?

Growing up, I used to think being nice was the best way to live life. You know, you put good into the world, and good things happen to you- you reap what you sow. However, as time progressed, I realized that, ironically, being nice can also end up causing you harm. There were people who saw that good things happen when you’re being nice- for them. The harsh truths I had to learn were that sometimes you can be too nice to people; some individuals will run all over you if you allow them to; and there are people out there that take advantage of the kindness of others. This has played a huge role in why relationships become very unbalanced.

August Release: Addressing Unbalanced Relationships

This month's post will be centered on the topic of relationships that are unbalanced; relationships (friendships, work relationships, partner relationships, etc) where there seems to be one person who is more of a taker, and the other person is more of a giver. Typically, this kind of circumstance arises when the taker is taking advantage of the giver. It could start off as unconscious or subconscious actions, but eventually, it becomes a conscious habit. We will discuss how to address this situation before it becomes a problem, and, if you are already dealing with it, how get out of it. The world can be a selfish place, and there are some people out there who will take everything you have to give if you allow them to; so let's learn how to take a stand.

Expect the post to be released next week!
