I need to learn to say no to those who ask for favours... with the exception of very close family and very close friends...
...the rest can pay for it....
I have my own life to live and I refuse to be anyone else's servant.
I have already started to assert myself - one of the responses, I have already had was - "I thought you were a friend"
So, I asked them, how many times did they call or email other than asking for a favour? How many times did they ask how my Masters was doing? how many times did they actually care as to how I am?
They stammered and mumbled - so I said the obvious conclusion - that I had thought they were a friend, but instead it is clear that I have been nothing but a servant - being paid a pittance in false respect.
Many are going to hate this, some may become hostile - hoping to brow beat me into submission like how it worked in the past. Some will whine and get the 'sads', trying to use sympathy and emotional chains to re-enslave me like how it worked in the past.
This has been building up for a while - but it is time that I really start looking out for myself for a change.
If they do not like it, they are just going to have to get used to it.
