    I was a lot nicer when I was younger,.. and it never resulted in reward or appreciation,.. it only lead to me being taken advantage of. I still do care about the needs and feelings of others,.. but I'm no longer willing to self sacrifice or over extend myself. I've learned to set boundaries and assert myself,.. openly and honestly express my wants/ needs and expectations,... even if it is met with disapproval from others. I haven't become selfish,.. just way less selfless than I used to be,.. achieving this level of self respect lead to gaining more respect from others,.. I'm no longer the doormat being walked all over.

    You don’t get what you want because you are a pushover! Nobody likes a pushover or doormat!

    Oh no! I think I may be a "nice girl"! I fit like half of these descriptions😲 I thought these symptoms were part of my struggle with overcoming codependent behaviors, but maybe something different I should look into. Your thoughts?

      It's just a different name for a similar problem. There's a lot of overlap between codependence and "nice guy/girl syndrome."

      @@TheGrowthMarriage that makes sense. Codependent people definitely look to others for approval and find it easier to "help" others fix problems than to look at their own stuff. It's a tough way to live until you identify what's going on and can work on it when you notice the old feelings and reactions creeping in.

    Really good video ! I'll wait for more.
    The principal characteristic I share with nice guys is the trade of niceness/ behaviour for sex or affection. I know that's bad but since I see all the aspects of the life as an exchange+ I've always been directly rewarded for my actions that's what I expect in love.
    Ps: Jesus tbh I have most of the characteristics, specially the last ones

      I've got a whole series planned out!
      It's an enormous topic. If there's interest, I'll make more videos explaining what to do about it.
