Travicon:You just gave a perfect description of who I used to be years ago and your story about school life reminds me of mine too. I simply left the hostel for off camp- I never gave them a reason I left. I know I'm not still a bad person but I know deep within me that I'm not that nice guy I used to be anymore either. People only judge me now based on who I used to be, they'll only see the changes when they choose to take me for a ride. I got tired! About getting a girlfriend? They don't like nice guys - most of them. |

Quit trying to fight it, that is your destiny, that is who you are created to be. I have a brother like you, even if he is just passing a stranger walks up to him that he or she hasn't eaten he will get them money, even school fees. He is paying school fees of many people , strangers and family members, people started taking advantage of him, some will go ahead to give out his phone number to other people. Even when I get angry at him at times, I try to caution him about it, he never listens. Infact, sometimes he will promise not to give money but he will secretly go behind my back to give. I later gave up on him. God has been blessing him though. This is why I said it is your destiny, you can't fight it. |

Travicon:1:-Stop discussing your personal life with every second person. Tell them what's necessary, privacy is everything. 2:-Stop wasting your time on PUBG . It doesn't Feed you. 3:-Stop trying to please everyone. Give importance to yourself. 4:-Stay away from negative people . Make yourself as your best friend. 5:—Stop worrying about what people say.

You don’t need a herbalist to tell you to love yourself first before your neighbor. One month is enough for you to read someone and know the kind of person he’s. So now that you know, you still need advice? No now, just separate from doing things together ASAP. Also start saving little and be thinking how to invest back in Nigeria if you don’t have plans to stay back. Especially property and real estate investment. Dm me if interested Travicon: |

glosplendid:While it's good to be nice, Pieces are generally not smart in their thinking. They are too free and people take them for a ride all the time. It's only a developed Scorpio partner that can show you the way to your true self. @op, I was once like you and somehow, I am still like you but I have learned to set boundaries. Treat people as they treat you and watch them change. Meanwhile, you'll learn some things at your own pace and there's nothing anyone's advice can do until you learn these things. ![]() |

If being nice is hurting you, then you've got to stop hurting yourself first.....you need to channel the energy accumulated on your getting hurt lessons to restructure and modify yourself into a principled man. |

Travicon:Some people were created to be good. I don't think you should change to being mean. However, you need to adjust how you relate to people and yourself. First, invest in yourself with the little you have. Do what will give you extra money. You'll definitely need that. Second, create an event that'll determine your relationship with those your roommates and others especially so called friends. Start by telling them to contribute towards feeding and other expenses. Make the request plain! Should they refuse, that means everyone should answer his surname. Find a way to move out and stay on your own. As for your friends, try to request money from them, this act will separate you from most of them. Finally be yourself and don't give yourself to people. I don't mean you shouldn't interact. Only offer what you can lose. I'm in your shoes but God is helping me skip those people who'll love to drain you but safeguard their resources. I don't refrain from lending out small sums if I have because if you refuse to pay back, that's it. You'll naturally cut yourself out of me to my advantage. |

Dear Travicon, I genuinely understand you plight and for someone who have been in your very shoes, I'm passionate about helping folks navigate the process of be nice and wise. I would be glad to share some e-books specifically on the "Nice guy" syndrome and loads of personal experiences as well. Write me @ greatchibueze@gmail.com. Blessings! |

Travicon:These days, I rarely comment but I saw your cry for help and I hope you get to read this: Understand that you are not too nice! However, you have a deep rooted need to be loved or appreciated or wanted or needed. Unfortunately, this makes you overcompensate with your generosity despite your very limited resources. This can put you in a very uncomfortable and even dangerous situation; you are seen as an easy outlet for everyone and their problems. The question you need to answer truthfully to yourself: 1- Who is there for me when I need them? 2- Who can I confide in during my times of need? 3- Who is a recurring drain on my limited resources? Keep #1 and #2 close and pour the love they put into you, back into them as well. #3 are people you need to either keep at arms length or cut off entirely. Also, remember that the problems of the world will never finish and be you alive or dead, people will always have their problems. Finally, for your room mates, you need to have a meeting on how they can contribute to the upkeep of the resources. Since you already cook, how about you volunteer to cook three times a week but they provide the resources. That way, you save the money and when they do not provide the resources, you can eat out. Should they refuse your proposal or offer an unacceptable arrangement, then put your foot down and protect your resources. |
