I have had a real bad few days and I do my best to help others but it only turned out to be more drama. I did what I could to help and it seems they are expecting more. maybe I am just being overwhelmed and taking too personal.
does anyone else ever feel this way?

sometimes, it is best to just let people figure it out by themselves while, lending moral support. My daughter, has been going through the same situation with, a couple of Her friends. there are times when, it is best to just take a step back and, not become so emotionally committed.
You have to take care of You, too.

I'm truly sorry that you had a bad day - they suck!! Hopefully they are few and far between.
I'm a social worker with a family preservation organization so I can COMPLETELY understand where you are coming from. I have learned one thing that has helped me immensely and that is to not take things personally. Do what you can to help people as you can. Usually giving/doing for others is a two way street and you get a good feeling from helping them, just as they get your help, but when it turns to you feeling like you are getting taken advantage of then you will only come to resent them.
Many people have no idea that they have crossed the line of asking too much so you need to speak up and learn to say no when you can and should.
Hang in there little princess!!!! Or use that magic wand of yours. LOL!!

before everything once I observed homework questions i became into aggravated, thinking that youngsters have been soliciting for the solutions and purely did no longer desire to do the paintings. yet after some weeks of exploring Yahoo solutions, i found out that many human beings at right here won't be community English audio equipment. Many young ones soliciting for help must be the youngsters of immigrants, and may be able to no longer have the potential to get the help they desire. (to no longer say that immigrant dad and mom won't be able to help with homework... some can and a few won't be able to, purely like some dad and mom born right here.) I also have a female pal and he or she has 2 young ones, and he or she became into born and raised right here, yet she will't incredibly help her young ones with their homework, yet she does experience college is relatively significant and needs her young ones to do nicely. the fabric is purely previous her, and he or she works difficult for her family members and is exhausted. Then i presumed approximately my dad, and his dad and mom have been immigrants and purely went so a techniques as extreme college. They struggled somewhat with English, yet they might not have been able to assist him with the homework he had. and infrequently it may be previous due at nighttime and a baby has a question... who's he/she going to invite at that factor? all of us get caught information some issues. and then there is likewise gaining knowledge of disabliities. So, optimistically the youngsters are gaining knowledge of, and interested in gaining knowledge of, and attempting to do the paintings, and purely soliciting for help whilst they get caught, or asking to make certain in the event that they did their task precise. i could fairly supply the earnings of the doubt for all the above possibliities.

yeah definitely, the more you help someone out the more stuff and help they are gonna want out of you. I had this friend who lost their job and didn't have anywhere to go so i let em stay at my place until they could find a substantial paying job to get em back on there own two feet. and for months they stayed there with out even getting a job until i finally sent em back to there parents. That was a big mistake letting em stay with me.

Yes...I completely understand, and I hate drama too. You need to take 2 steps back and look at the situation again and see if you should stay involved with it or not...

Yes, and I'm working on my assertiveness but it's still difficult.
I often feel like I'm being taken advantage of and get pissed off, then I realize I let it happen. Sounds like we could both use a lesson in saying NO!!!
Don't ya hate being so freakin nice??

Yesterday was a bad day for me too.
I think you just need to know where to draw the line, and when totell someone "Sorry, I can't, I've got to polish my toes that day."
