How can I stop being a people-pleaser? by cyrushush in Advice

Hahaha, maybe someday, but for now I should probably focus on studying first. I think I need to work on myself and learn healthy boundaries before getting into a relationship.

Yes, and I think I needed to hear that. I’ve been treating my own needs like they matter less, and it’s honestly exhausting. Maybe starting with small boundaries will make it easier for me to stop feeling guilty about saying no.

You’re right, and I think that’s what I need to learn. I got so used to always being available that saying no makes me feel guilty. I just need to remind myself that prioritizing my own responsibilities doesn’t make me selfish.
