Don’t let anyone take advantage of your innocence in life. I know I’ve been hurt before and it doesn’t feel good being taken advantage of for being a nice person seeing the good in others and being non judgmental.
Sometimes people mistake you being nice for naïveté as though you’re blind to the realities of the world as though they can take advantage of you without a scratch. Be self-reliant know yourself well enough to know when something’s off, trust your instincts and it’s never too late to turn back around and go your own way in life.
Don’t let anyone hurt you, you have a say in it to stop yourself and say to yourself I’m not going to allow this I’m going to find my way out of this mess, and know you can get help if you need it, you’re not alone.
Be observant, approach life with caution and be vigilant. In life there are phases it may be the worst but better days are ahead don’t lose faith in yourself. It’s okay to take it easy and be kind to yourself, there’s no need to retaliate or fight back that just makes things worse. Take a step back and remind yourself this is not normal but I am.
The world is not all red roses sometimes you’ll run into a thorn in life trying to pull you apart from the inside out don’t let them. Everyone fights their own demons in life including when we feel hurt and alone can be a petri dish of insanity to get out of. It can feel like someone’s trying to push you into a box preventing you from feeling free devoid of conflict able to be yourself.
Don’t beat yourself over it either. We’ve all been there an unsuspecting victim in the matter but turn that into strength not view yourself as weak or stupid you’re not. Know that “Being taken advantage of has nothing to do with intelligence. It usually happens because of high empathy, a desire to keep the peace, or unspoken expectations.” [1]
Sometimes instilled fear can keep us from leaving situations we find ourselves in. Feeling stuck. You’ll find your way no matter what fears surrounds you in life however created. Remind yourself that you’re a good person and deserve better treatment in life. It may be an uphill battle finding respect, but first you need to respect yourself, no matter what anyone does to you in life.
