Not a pity or drama thread just realized I've been a too nice and giving person.

I've decided to turn over a new leaf and become a mean and nasty person.I mean it seems to work real well for some people why wouldn't it work for me too.

It's seems like the meaner and nastier someone is they're placed on a petsal.They're also accepted by others.

It's like smoking or other bad health vices, it'll shorten your life and probably some friendships. That's not good for you.

Take a break. Stay nice. You have to look yourself in the mirror every day. Make sure you like who you see.

Don't worry about the mean and nasty people....what goes around comes around. Someday they will pay.

I've tried to do that a few times in my years but have found out I'm just to lazy and selfish to be mean and nasty.

Being mean and nasty takes a lot of time and takes a lot out of a person.

I'd rather spend my time doing what I want to do than letting others dictate what I do. I also find I have more energy when I'm not mad or plotting my next move.

I'm just that lazy.

I agree! Negativity needs to get “out” sometimes, so you can focus on being positive! Vent and get angry for a short period of time, then move on to being positive and better. Negative people can drain all the energy out of others.

That is so so wholesomely true, you don't want to stoop to their level, if someone can't be nice their not worth knowing.

Of course, being courteous is the right thing to do- but there are limits too. There is such a thing as being too nice, a.k.a. a push-over. If you're too nice, sooner or later, you'll surely be taken advantage of. This is evident in a lots of areas.
One: when you loan someone money, and you are suddenly thought of as a convenient bank.
Two: when you allow someone to stay in your home "temporarily", and they see it as a long-term arrangement.
Three: while driving. Sadly, some drivers on the road consider common courtesies as an unnecessary hassle, and they view a very polite driver as a weakness there to be exploited.
Four: when you are phoned by a telemarketer, who won't take "I'm sorry, but I'm not really interested" as a "no" and end the call.
You can probably think of many more examples. Being nice isn't always what's called for. In other words, it's better to be both courteous AND assertive than to be walked on.
