How She Regain Respect.

A friend of mind in college told me that alot of people were taking advantage of her, degrading her, disrespecting her simply because she is the jovial type, laughs a lot. Sometimes she talks a lot and has probably told people things that should be personal. how can she regain respect both in school, church and in her neighborhood. By the way she is a good chrisitian woman.

@ gracious

Its a known fact that some things cannot be changed  . . like turning back the hand of the clock. The things she's told them cannot be taken back unless she's thought of giving them memory black-out lol

The past is gone and there's little or nothing she can do about it, but she has power to an extent to do something about the future

They've already drawn the wrong image of her, its not late to wipe it away, but she has to buckle up fast, or else the people that have the wrong pic will be more in number and we don't want that
Like iice said, she should quit those attitudes that got her the "disrespectful and disregarding" assumptions

Luxoire is right too,Of course its a good thing to be jovial, open and outgoing but she shouldn't forget the saying that "too much of everything is bad" and that there's a time for everything, a time to laugh and a time to be serious, a time to be eerybody's friend and a time to keep to yourself while being a friend

She should know when to draw the line, being "jovial" doesn't mean she should fool around with every Tom, Benson and Harry, being "outgoing" doesn't mean she should fall a fool to all and being "open" doesn't mean she shouldn't have some secrets to herself. One can have all those qualities and still be the best in town. Knowing how to cordinate them and when not to go overboard with it.
It should also be in a lady's nature to be reserved a bit, so she should practise that. You're a failure when you've stopped trying, if the response she's been getting has been putting her in a bad mood, the she has to wear a different coat. Make new priniples and rules for herself and try to follow them.

She'll be fine, believe me
