    mmm  — 2 months ago

    at the moment i feel like the biggest doormat and i have to say for personal reasons. I think maybe I need to say no and stick up for myself a little more.

    People have told me this for years, but I thought it was just them.
    Once I realized it isn’t compassionate, it’s just being used, I’ve realized it needs to stop.
    It’s time for it to stop today.

    self respect  — 9 months ago

    i know its all about self respect blah blah blah but how do you get that? what if you think you’re great except for your lack of self respect? i thought it was a response to feeling bad about yourself in other ways not a bad thing in itself?? so confused.

    Em is wasting time

    I think I’ve finally weeded out the people in my life that were making me feel like a ratty old doormat. I don’t think being a doormat was ever really my fault—maybe I just have a tendency to gravitate towards toxic people.

    I can't say I'll never be one  — 11 months ago

    Worth doing!

    but I think I’m doing well enough to cross this off my list now.

    I will always be a door stop  — 11 months ago

    ... i just want to please everyone and i have great difficulty in saying no to most people. I give up, you cant change weaknesses that easily but i guess its a nice feeling to know youve helped a friend out.

    I'm getting better  — 1 year ago

    Worth doing!

    but I need to be better. I need to stop letting people use me – to do their work so they can play, as their ‘last resort’ when there’s nobody better to hang out with, or as their sympathetic ear when everyone else is tired of listening to them whine. I need to stop being generous when that generosity is not reciprocated. And above all, I need to stop allowing people to make me feel bad when they treat me this way. I’m better than this. And they’ll either treat me with the respect I deserve, or I will walk away.

    My doormat is covered in bird poo. I’m too good for bird poo. :P

    GAH.  — 1 year ago

    I have always let people walk all over me. I am naturally submissive which I FREAKINHATE. I am going to have to work up some confidence and learn to shake things off so I CAN SPEAK MY MIND and be more dominant when it comes to decisions, both personal and public.

    I feel I am getting better with  — 1 year ago

    Worth doing!

    this goal, good enough that I am going to call it done. I am setting boundries with those in my life and speaking up when I need to.

    Doormat Girl  — 1 year ago

    I am so bad at this goal! I’m naturaly submissive, and I hate it. I want to stop being such a doormat, but how?! This really isn’t going well.
