Can you share a lesson that you learned later in life and how it has impacted your current lifestyle, mentality, or attitude?

Whether it was a friend asking for a favor, an invitation I didn’t feel like accepting, or even a stranger requesting my time, I hesitated to say no

It’s very settling.

It’s very freeing.

How can I get my ex-husband to love me again?

But my mind wouldn’t let go of it.

It drained me, messed with my peace, and cluttered my mind with unnecessary stress.

I would spend hours, sometimes days, replaying the decision in my head, regretting my response, wishing I had been honest.

Why are people with borderline personality disorder so capable of ripping someone apart with their words?

I always felt obligated to be polite, to be accommodating, to be the “nice” person because the dictionary of ‘good girl’ means they should be accommodating according to the society.

I have ruined my sleep & rest hours with nonsense calls from nonsense people. No matter what the time, I have picked up their calls & listened to their rant for hours. I could not be blunt saying, ‘no am not interested in talking’

No is a complete sentence & it should not be just used for CONSENT for sex.

Why is that Hag Hillary Clinton so quiet these days? She is the dog that isn't barking

Many people especially girls will be able to connect with this answer.

I lost a lot of my time to help, keeping my needs aside & the favour was never returned because most people took my time for granted & I also hesitated to ask for help

No meant she is being rebellious.

Since the rise of feminism, the dating market has shifted to the disadvantage of men and that is causing this incel phenomenon. Why do women not understand how lonely the majority of men are?

Everytime I said yes when I wanted to say no, I paid the price.

I am thankful to my profession & how I started from scratch that I was able to become so blunt & straight forward.

In what ways is modern day Russia similar to the USSR? How does it differ from the USSR in terms of culture and politics?

It has been an easy life.

I couldn’t say No to strangers talking & invading my personal life. It made me uncomfortable but somehow I entertained forcibly. This made me realize that I was an easy target for them. They thought of me as an easy prey. This always ended up hurting me because I knew there should be a boundary set , yet I couldn’t set it as I was just a naive small town girl

It’s very freeing.

How do people who are deaf learn sign language? Is it typically taught by parents at a young age or are there programs available for learning it later in life?

I lost a lot of money trying to fit in. I don’t like expensive English meals at fancy restaurants. But my friends did. I couldn’t say No thinking I would be judged. But I love ‘Desi food’. I didn’t enjoy the food, & I ended up paying huge split bills so many times

But here’s the hard truth I learned much later in life.

I used to be the kind of person who found it incredibly hard to say no. I would keep people’s feelings above mine.

I was always that one eager person to help someone in need without realising the consequences it might have. I have helped people from Quora & other places during the time when I had nothing on me. I couldn’t say No when a man manipulated me into giving him a huge amount for his daughters education during Covid. I later got fed up asking him to return. He returned after two years. His wife was a working lady at a good corporate place. He lied to me as he wanted money for his alcohol addiction

It’s very refreshing.

This is how I paid for not being able to say NO.
