Can you share a lesson that you learned later in life and how it has impacted your current lifestyle, mentality, or attitude?

-Smita Mishra

I would spend hours, sometimes days, replaying the decision in my head, regretting my response, wishing I had been honest.

It has been an easy life.

What is one fantasy you have never told anyone about but really want to do?

I lost a lot of my time to help, keeping my needs aside & the favour was never returned because most people took my time for granted & I also hesitated to ask for help

This is how I paid for not being able to say NO.

It’s very freeing.

For those who were actually old enough to have experienced the 1970s and not for those who were born in the 70s. What were the pros and cons of that era?

But here’s the hard truth I learned much later in life.

It’s very settling.

I was always that one eager person to help someone in need without realising the consequences it might have. I have helped people from Quora & other places during the time when I had nothing on me. I couldn’t say No when a man manipulated me into giving him a huge amount for his daughters education during Covid. I later got fed up asking him to return. He returned after two years. His wife was a working lady at a good corporate place. He lied to me as he wanted money for his alcohol addiction

Why did my bipolar girlfriend split up with me?

Many people especially girls will be able to connect with this answer.

Everytime I said yes when I wanted to say no, I paid the price.

It’s very freeing.

Why are Republicans so afraid of a strong leader like Vice President Kamala Harris? Are they worried if she becomes President she will make them look stupid?

It drained me, messed with my peace, and cluttered my mind with unnecessary stress.

No meant she is being rebellious.

I am thankful to my profession & how I started from scratch that I was able to become so blunt & straight forward.

I am glad you enjoyed my pictures. Do you have any photos to share?

But my mind wouldn’t let go of it.

I have ruined my sleep & rest hours with nonsense calls from nonsense people. No matter what the time, I have picked up their calls & listened to their rant for hours. I could not be blunt saying, ‘no am not interested in talking’

I used to be the kind of person who found it incredibly hard to say no. I would keep people’s feelings above mine.

In your humble opinion, why does the narcissist mistake kindness for weakness in some people?

I couldn’t say No to strangers talking & invading my personal life. It made me uncomfortable but somehow I entertained forcibly. This made me realize that I was an easy target for them. They thought of me as an easy prey. This always ended up hurting me because I knew there should be a boundary set , yet I couldn’t set it as I was just a naive small town girl

I always felt obligated to be polite, to be accommodating, to be the “nice” person because the dictionary of ‘good girl’ means they should be accommodating according to the society.

I lost a lot of money trying to fit in. I don’t like expensive English meals at fancy restaurants. But my friends did. I couldn’t say No thinking I would be judged. But I love ‘Desi food’. I didn’t enjoy the food, & I ended up paying huge split bills so many times

What do you think about the NFA full auto band? Weapons built before 1986 can be transferred and registered? But we can't have an 87? But older weapons tend to be far more powerful. I think we should drop it. Input?

It’s very refreshing.

No is a complete sentence & it should not be just used for CONSENT for sex.

Whether it was a friend asking for a favor, an invitation I didn’t feel like accepting, or even a stranger requesting my time, I hesitated to say no

Do guys ever want to suck a dick even though they are straight?
