If he is getting happiness by that , then I am the one who has the advantage in fact .So I will advice him to get more happiness . Making others happy is the most happiest thing that can happen to anyone .I'm a generous person, how would you advice a person that is taking advantage of you with something?
drop the user completely - just sack them off
i'm like you - you get to get everything with me - until you a point where i realise you are not going to stop abusing the fact that you know you can get everything by taking everything rather than what you need.
everyone starts with my respect but once my respect is gone my respect is gone and so are you. I'm a generous person, how would you advice a person that is taking advantage of you with something?
Say no if your being taking advantage of more-less, if you are being abused because we all take advantage of opportunities. Being taken as kindness for weakness is another subject all together. This still implies the word no. Because some people don't know any better. So you must set them straight on this matter.
If it's money tell them you don't have access to it anymore becuse you're parents are controlling your finances for you now because you're trying to save.. or your bank is filtering off your spare cash into savings that you can only take out if you physically walk into the bank and have to wait 7 days for them to release it. something like that...
if it's something else, you need to say because its hard to answer that question without knowin what it is they're taking advantage of...
Create rules for yourself. Such as how much you give out, what you give out, to whom, and for how long.
For instance, I like giving massages to my girlfriend. If she asks for a massage every now and then, I have no problem giving her one. However, if the first thing she says to me when I walk into her apartment is ';Can you give me a massage?';, or if she annoys me to give her one, I refuse. You should try and use your generousity to encourage other people to be more giving, but if they just end up demanding more from you, you need to remand them that they're not being fair to you.
So you need to make rules.
Decide for yourself how much you're willing to give, how much others deserve, and at what point you're being used. Draw a line in the sand (so to speak) and don't let anyone cross it.
Real simple , speak your mind to the person you think is taking advantage of you , always in a polite manner. Explain your grievance and if that does not work , stop being generous with that person. Good luck to you.
