Its always a good idea to remind yourself that you may not always get what you give….
There are times when you give someone 100% and if your lucky you end up with about 2% in return.
Its always been said that you should never give anything with the thought of getting something back from it. You should give whole hearted and not selfishly.

Well, I think I may fall into the category of selfish. Because its tiring being the doormat, and If I go out of my way to help someone, I would at least want a “thank you” out of it. Don’t get me wrong, there are certain situations where I would not think twice about being there for someone. But when it feels like they are not there for you emotionally… it just really sucks. After you have been there for them time and time again. People get so wrapped up in themselves anymore, and they are too busy to think of what someone else may be going through.

It’s been made entirely too easy for some, to just be able to take advantage, to think they are so deserving of your attention. When in reality they are not.
So if you are in a situation where you feel you are alone, and have no one that rushes to your side when you need a friend but you give, give and give to everyone around you…
I say, Don’t be the doormat anymore, you will only feel pathetic and alone! I have always thought, I would rather be alone by myself, then feel alone with someone by my side.
