I tend to think of myself as someone who always tries to take into account other peoples point of views. I find that this objectivity is a double edged sword. When I have had to end a friendship, I often realise that I am being quite kind in my comments about the other party. I try and maintain a certain level of respect for them, even if they now have none for me.
Nowadays I have been thinking perhaps I should change that policy and I should give better than i get ..
i dont think u should change that policy! i have that policy & for a while i thought like u, that i should change it. but much later i found out that this is the best one, bec in the end you come out much better. & u wont regret anything, in fact you will feel proud of yourself
by keeping the policy you have now, your respecting yourself more than you are your mates.
i can never understand this buisness of treating others the way they treat you, its always been treat somebody the way you yourself would like to be treated. Obviously its easier said than done, and no matter what sometimes you will never get the response your hoping for, but why do need to change yourself when its others that are in the wrong?
Theres nowt wrong with being the nice person...i wish i was a nice person!
i agree with MM, you should do to others and you would like done to you. i know most of the time you get frustrated cuz u dont get this attitude back from many people, but its a great feeling in the long run
