“When I stopped being nice to people who did not deserve it, I felt a whole lot better about myself, this was last year. I decided it wasn’t good for my mental health to let people walk on me like I was a doormat, and ever since I stopped letting people treat me like that, I feel happier. I don’t have to worry about what people are going to say or what they’re going to think. I’m not going to treat someone like gold if I don’t get the same from them in return. It’s not 50/50 it’s 100/100.”
