You dont always have to be the nice girl.
Damian Barczak
Not when it means accepting less than you deserve.
Not when it means allowing others to walk over you.
Not when it means sacrificing your own happiness to make the people around you more comfortable.
Stop playing nice so that keep the peace.
Especially when its disturbingyourpeace.
Why do you feel like everyone elses feelings matter more than your own?
Why do you feel like you arent allowed to express an emotion other than gratitude?
If anyone around you felt uncomfortable, you would want them to speak up.
You would want them to feel safe sharing their story.
You would want to hear the truth instead of a pretty little lie.
So why arent you extending that same sense of kindness to yourself?
Why are you holding back your emotions when theyre causing you so much pain deep down inside?
You dont have to sit back and allow other people to hurt you to make it avoid drama.
If theyve crossed a line, there alreadyisdrama.
And youre allowed to tell them how unhappy you are with their behavior.
That way, they know not to make the same mistake again.
Otherwise, they might assume you reallyarefine.
They might not get the hint.
Of course, when you stop playing nice, some people are going to get annoyed with you.
Theyre going to act like youre being completely unreasonable or accuse you ofchanging.
But really, theyre just upset you arent allowing them to take advantage of you anymore.
Really, theyre frustrated that theyre no longer getting away with their bullshit.
Remember, you dont have to be the nice girl who stays quiet, even when youre suffering inside.
You dont have to be the nice girl who forgives everyone who does you wrong.
You dont have to be the nice girl who claims youre fine, despite everything youre going through.
You dont have to be the nice girl when other people are treating you poorly.
You dont have to let their mean streak continue.
you’re able to cut the toxic people out of your life without another thought.
Because those are the types of people you deserve to be around, anyway.
You shouldnt allow anyone to mistreat you, simply because youre scared of causing a scene.
You shouldnt keep the wrong people in your world for the sake of seeming nice.
