[b]Op,I second Point 2 strongly.I had to learn my lesson the hard way.
There was this girl;a junior colleague I was genuinely interested in helping with school stuffs.i called her like twice a week to check up on her.I realized that she hardly call me at all and when I decided to jokingly call her out on it(in order not to seem needy),she told she was broke and can't afford to call.
I believed her and kept my weekly routine of calling her.As Time went on,I started noticing a pattern I did not like;Her phone rang twice as much as before till she decides to pick to few minutes into our interaction when I call her ,she would come up with silly excuses and promise to call back so that she can quickly go off the phone.
What pissed me off was the day I called her and she blatantly ignored my call by leaving her phone to ring on my ear.Since that day,I realized how much cards I invested in this girl that did not get reciprocated by her.I felt cheated.I vowed since then that I was never going to call this girl again or any other person (except family members of course) who does not reciprocate my gesture.
[/b]
Well it is easy to be angry against this said girl but you what you didn’t realize is that you placed yourself in a position you only created.
She never beg for your calls,
She never owe you a call back,
You weren’t really calling because of anything but because of attention.

At the end,
You felt entitled
You became angry
You became needy.

This is just plain game nice guys play. Had it been you communicated your intention early,
You were direct with your actions,
You watched the feedback and took actions.
You were always ready to move on if you don’t see yourself in the picture

You would have had a happy ending

Be a man or woman of discipline, even when woman or man try to seduce you to sleep with you, reject it and let them know you are a decent person.

Don't go and be doing long distance relationship and asking her "have you eaten?"

And most importantly, comot eye from other people things. If a friend houses you and feeds you, avoid his babe even if she can't avoid you.

Recently, a friend told me about an embarrassing situation he experienced. He attended a small party and out of all the attendees, he was the only one that was not served food. Sincerely, I couldn't control my laughter when he was recounting his story because it sounded funny. With a frown on his face, he said "I wasn't invited to the party anyway". At that point, I knew he was at fault.


A wise man once told me that respect can only be earned, not forced. It implies that before people can respect you, there is a price to pay; you need to be worthy of it.

When people respect you, they place you in high regard and value your opinion. They don't belittle you or make you feel worthless. Also, they treat you specially.

For instance, my friend was not respected at the party he attended. He even said the host didn't even acknowledge his presence. That's disappointing!


Whether you're rich or poor, educated or illiterate, good-looking or not, you deserve to be respected. Respect feeds the ego and makes us feel good.

So, if you don't want people to disrespect you, stop doing these 10 things;

1. Stop going to places you are not invited to

2. Stop calling and chatting up people who don't call you

3. Stop laughing uncontrollably when people insult you; caution them immediately

4. Stop begging people for money; double your hustle

5. Stop visiting people who don't visit you

6. Stop contributing to discussions that don't concern you


7. Stop chasing after people who don't know you exist

8. Stop mingling with people who have no plans for the future

9. Stop sleeping and relaxing when you're supposed to be working

10. Stop fighting and insulting people, especially in public




Try your best to avoid the 10 things listed above, you'll be surprised at how people will see you differently and start respecting you.

Have you ever been disrespected by someone close to you? Kindly share your story.

Thanks for reading.

@OP, Have you been a leader in any organization or group before, no matter how small??

If you have, then I believe your number 2 & 5 points are wrong in that regard.

All your points are valid for someone living alone, and not for others who want to connect with people, as I indicated, especially numbers 2 & 5.
