The Ugly Side Of Being A Girl Who Always Takes Care Of Others
You’re always there for those who need a friend…
You’re the kind of person others can always lean on. Whether it’s day or night, you’re there for those who reach out.
People rely on you because you seem to know the perfect words to offer right when they need them.
Your presence is incredibly soothing, and that’s why friends turn to you during tough times.
You often don’t treat others the way they treat you…
You follow your own path, and while you’d like to give back what you receive to show others a lesson, that’s just not who you are.
It’s because you have a gentle heart.
You don’t have a vindictive nature, and you avoid showing others how it feels to be on the receiving end of their actions.
When someone strikes you, you respond with kindness, consistently steering clear of being unkind in return.
You find it easy to forgive…
As someone who strives to understand others, you have a hard time staying mad for long.
No matter how deeply someone has hurt you or how long that pain lingers, forgiveness comes easily to you.
Whenever you’re hurt, you tend to think from their perspective, which leads you to let go of the hurt.
You might forgive a bit too much…
No matter how often someone proves they’re untrustworthy, you still reach out, wishing this time won’t lead to disappointment.
You simply don’t hold onto negativity very well.
Sometimes, even when you remember how someone hurt you, your instinct to help others overshadows your own hurt.
You often put others before yourself…
Perhaps today is a day meant solely for you.
You might have chosen this time to focus on yourself, but whenever someone comes to you in need, you abandon your plans to help them instead.
This is why you often lack time for your own needs.
People have grown accustomed to your generosity…
You are kind-hearted, and people acknowledge that about you.
The comfort of your kindness and support is something they take for granted since they’ve never experienced life without your presence.
You’ve always shown up when they needed assistance, making your goodwill seem ordinary to them.
This is why it feels unremarkable when you lend a hand; they expect it from you.
You
Feeling Guilty for Saying ‘No’…
When others are used to your helpfulness and generosity, they often react with surprise when you’re overwhelmed and attempt to say ‘no’ to them.
I say ‘attempt’ because even though you wish to refuse their requests, your feelings of guilt can hold you back.
This guilt can keep you tossing and turning at night, making you feel like you’re letting others down, and that’s the last thing you want.
As a result, you end up helping those who may not appreciate your efforts at all.
No One Understands Your Pain…
The toughest part of being someone who constantly looks after others is realizing that no one is looking out for you.
You can feel lost, sad, and overwhelmed by life too. But often, no one else takes notice.
People might not even know how to support you.
So, you keep your feelings hidden, choosing to deal with your struggles alone.
You Deserve Better Treatment…
The difficult truth for someone who always prioritizes others is that people often don’t treat you with the respect you deserve.
They rarely respond…
You’re worthy of the respect and kindness you wish to receive.
You deserve the universe and someone who knows exactly how to cherish you.
You should also be nurtured. You’ve given so much love to those around you, and you rightfully expect to receive it back someday.
The reality is, you will—just hang in there.
One of the lovely things about being someone who prioritizes caring for others is knowing that there’s someone out there, just as compassionate and warm as you.
This person is facing their own challenges, similar to yours.
So hold onto your hope and don’t conform to the negativity in the world.
Remain authentic so your true soulmate can spot you when the time comes.
