It's true. Being 'nice', a people a pleaser, being naive, ignoring self-preservation instinct, not expecting reciprocity from adults, making excuses for people etc-- will put you in a cycle where everyone in your life treats you like ass. Not just men, but everyone.

Idk why the body of my post didn't show but this woman is a freaking BADA$$ and I would highly recommend watching her first video with Lisa Bilyeu titled "Human Lie Detector" as well.

sigh

problem is, (minority) women have to tolerate SO SO much more, so it's a CONSTANT battle having to extricate ourselves out of bad situations and encounters, by either fight or flight. so sometimes i just stay, cuz i'm so fucking tired of having to resist.

Thanks for posting this. This lady is a queen! The part about conditional trust was huge for me. You can't give these men unconditional trust.
