My life is your summary of story.



I have always been the go-to person for everyone in my life. Whether it was fixing a leaky faucet, giving a ride to the airport, or lending a listening ear, I did it all without hesitation. I prided myself on being there for others, no matter what. But as the years went by, I couldn’t help but wonder if they were truly grateful for all the help I had provided.



It seemed like everyone only came to me when they needed something. They never bothered to check in on me or see how I was doing. It was as if they were only interested in what I could do for them, not in me as a person. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was being taken advantage of.



Despite my growing doubts, I continued to be there for everyone, always putting their needs before my own. But as time passed, I began to feel a sense of resentment building inside me. I realized that I was neglecting my own well-being in an effort to please others.



One day, I found myself in need of help. My car had broken down, and I was stranded on the side of the road. I called everyone I knew, hoping that someone would come to my rescue. But to my surprise, no one answered. It was then that I realized the harsh truth – no one was coming to help me because I had always been the one doing the helping.



As I sat there, stranded and alone, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of bitterness. I had always been there for others, but when I needed help, no one was there for me. It was a harsh reality to face, but it forced me to re-evaluate my relationships and set boundaries.



From that day on, I vowed to prioritize myself and my own needs. I learned that it’s important to take care of myself before I could effectively care for others. While I still lent a helping hand when needed, I made sure to also prioritize my own well-being.



I may not have the skills of a mechanic, but I had learned a valuable lesson – it’s important to value myself as much as I value others. And as I moved forward, I made sure to surround myself with people who reciprocated my kindness and appreciation. No longer would I allow myself to be taken advantage of.
