good advice. i struggle with this too. its all about boundaries. start to learn to value yourself and try putting yourself and your happiness first. Its hard, but it gets easier and feels better over time. A lot of times when we have weak boundaries, its a way of avoidance. Being overly agreeable, compliant, fixing others problems and putting others before ourselves, etc takes the focus off of doing whats best for us and puts it on other people. It makes you feel good because youre making a sacrifice, but eventually people take advantage and you become resentful. stand your ground, be your true self, and if certain people cant handle it, its a good indication that the relationship isn't serving you and its ok to move on
