IQ: advantage male, or advantage female?

Me and my husband are very caring people. We know how it is to be taken advantage of. But we are more stronger now and we don't take **** from anybody.

My mom always wants me to do things for her all the time and which annoys me because she thinks I don't do enough. Just all I can say is don't take it personal. If they ask you to do something just say I have something planned already.

Or if they say they will buy you dinner and then find out they what the same treatment back first ask. So if they want something in return say no. If they don't have a clue just leave the scen.

Find things to do so they don't have a reason for you to do things. GOOD LUCK!

All great answers so far:) Yes, you're too passive, but obviously not naive, or you wouldn't even be asking this question. I've had these same issues in the past, but I finally hit the point where I wasn't gonna take it anymore and so I assert myself. If someone tries to mess with me, I tell them that I don't like being messed with.

If a man makes inappropriate gestures or speech with me, I give him a dirty look; if they try to get touchy-feely, I say STOP. We live in a world where if you don't assert yourself right from the very beginning, people will try to walk all over you. Don't let them, anymore.

Stand your ground. But, be tactful about it, don't curse or mock anybody, just be simple and direct.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
