Have you ever asked yourself, why people always take advantage of a good person, whether it’s a family member, partner, or friend?
Does to be a good person means weakness or someone who scarifies himself for a beloved?

You know what’s best for you. You know who to have in your life and who to drop.

But whenever you are a good person, you give the people the benefit of the doubt and with that I mean:

“let’s say you’re in a toxic relationship that you know it’s not good for you so instead of leaving you like (I feel bad) or you start to blame yourself like (maybe I shouldn’t let Him/her go because there is more, I can do)

when you are going through a break up you always going to think about:

  • The good times
  • How they made you smile
  • You’re going to start to blame yourself

You do that because it is human nature, and that’s how the good people like you get ruined and destroyed by allowing the other person’s bad behavior and bad action to become your burden that you carry. So, you tend to make everything your fault, coz you use to that. That sadness became what you know, your home

on other hand bad people don’t give a F***, they simply say oh I don’t give a shi**, I am not guilty, rip to you.

Be Selfish

It’s ok to be selfish with your time, its ok to want to leave people who are no longer benefiting you whether its “toxic relationship or friendship or even toxic family member”

Manipulating gaslighting people will make you feel bad for wanting better for yourself or doing what is best for you and that’s how you know they’re not for you.
And remember to leave in a toxic relationship or friendship you don’t need approval from other people to tell you that you should stay or leave. Yes, sometimes we need opinions, but you have to do always what is good for you.

Realty is those who love you will love you for you and will understand you, they may not always like your decisions but they will always be their for you.

Conclusion

Life is expensive even to be life is expensive, so don’t allow anybody to play your peace and be your head rent-free because that will cost you much more than anything else in life.

you are valid, you are human, you have a heart but keep going, Love your self and do what is best for you, and Know your God will always guide you, he is at your side.
