People pleasers aren’t pleasing anyone— it’s the harsh truth that some people need to hear. You’re not only hurting yourself by neglecting your needs but also hurting the opposing person due to the lack of honesty— and they’ll find out one way or another, everyone eventually snaps. You’re wasting people’s time and effort as they’re getting to know you as someone you’re not, its so unhealthy and damaging. Be yourself, don’t try to impress others— I know it’s easier said than done but I believe in you.

If someone stops helping others because they keep facing attacks or their efforts lead to others being overwhelmed or mobbed, it doesn’t mean they are fake or insincere. It often reflects a need for self-protection or a recognition of their limits. True compassion involves understanding when continuing might cause more harm than good, either to themselves or to those they aim to help. Taking a step back in such situations can be a responsible choice, emphasizing quality over quantity of help and ensuring that their efforts don’t inadvertently cause more chaos or harm. It's important to recognize that caring individuals may need to pause or change their approach to remain effective and genuine. anonymous 5 hours ago
You're right that constantly pleasing others can be exhausting and ultimately unfulfilling. But here's the thing—sometimes people pleasers are just afraid of conflict or rejection, and that fear can be even more damaging. Authenticity isn't about perfect honesty all the time; it's about finding balance and respecting your own needs while still being considerate of others. We all have moments of insecurity, and growth comes from embracing who we truly are, not from constantly trying to impress. So yes, be yourself—genuinely, unapologetically—but also remember that we’re all imperfect, and that’s okay. It’s a journey, not a destination. anonymous 5 hours ago
