People don’t see kidness as a virtue but as a sign of weakness hence why a lot of people when they see a kind person they try to test the limits to see what they will do for them. Don’t be kind usually but rarely so people don’t use you

True, people see those kind people as cucks, the type of people who would say sorry if you fight with them.

There is no point being too nice, sure be nice but not nice to the point where people see you as a toy.

Exactly moderation is key

You can be kind but still maintain boundaries

Yeah I agree once you don’t establish boundaries people will attempt to see what they can get away with

There’s difference between being genuinely kind and being a doormat. People only test your limits if they mistake your empathy for weakness but kindness with boundaries commands intense respect. When you treat people right without being a pushover, you don't get used, you build unbreakable loyalty. I have people who I can call at 2 am and will show up for me.

Being kind rarely has it's uses, but most can't live their life that way you have to be considered important as fuck to others for that to work

you gotta generally just be kind moderately but obv adapt to whatever others signal towards you

the people pleasing syndrome is real bad for people with no real sense of self that kills their backbone and extreme shyness/neurodivergency though

if that a common problem for you i would tell you to try this

be kind to people and nice to them to first
then ask for favours that take them to think logicaly and overcome their emotional attachemnt to something

i could give you an example if you like

That’s smart test the waters a bit to see if your kindness will be reciprocated

but note that even if they fail the test dont cut them off
dont ever cutoff a person completely
but try and be wary of them
