What is that driving force in me that feels almost obligated to help others,even after they have F'd me over? Now,I do understand when enough is enough,but I have experienced not being given a second chance&hated that feeling
I think, particularly women, we're born with this innate need to be needed and to nurture.
If you are being taken advantage of you need to get to the point where you stop it. No one can do that for you. My Aunt has this problem too. I don't really have the issue of not being able to say no except with my bf. Lol.
Good luck! I hope that people taking advatange of you doesn't change who you are. There's nothing wrong with being soft-hearted or nurturing!
