Can you share a lesson that you learned later in life and how it has impacted your current lifestyle, mentality, or attitude?

I always felt obligated to be polite, to be accommodating, to be the “nice” person because the dictionary of ‘good girl’ means they should be accommodating according to the society.

I lost a lot of my time to help, keeping my needs aside & the favour was never returned because most people took my time for granted & I also hesitated to ask for help

I couldn’t say No to strangers talking & invading my personal life. It made me uncomfortable but somehow I entertained forcibly. This made me realize that I was an easy target for them. They thought of me as an easy prey. This always ended up hurting me because I knew there should be a boundary set , yet I couldn’t set it as I was just a naive small town girl

The International Boxing Association said that Khelif and Lin competing in Paris Olympics were disqualified from the tournament for testing positive for XY chromosomes which give an unfair advantage in the women’s division. What do you think?

It’s very freeing.

Whether it was a friend asking for a favor, an invitation I didn’t feel like accepting, or even a stranger requesting my time, I hesitated to say no

Which Bibles can one read and be confident they are reading the inerrant word of God?

No is a complete sentence & it should not be just used for CONSENT for sex.

I was always that one eager person to help someone in need without realising the consequences it might have. I have helped people from Quora & other places during the time when I had nothing on me. I couldn’t say No when a man manipulated me into giving him a huge amount for his daughters education during Covid. I later got fed up asking him to return. He returned after two years. His wife was a working lady at a good corporate place. He lied to me as he wanted money for his alcohol addiction

But my mind wouldn’t let go of it.

Can being annoyed be a sign of getting angry?

But here’s the hard truth I learned much later in life.

No meant she is being rebellious.

It has been an easy life.

Do you believe that the portrayal of smoking in films and music videos contributes to the glamorization of cigarettes in society?

It drained me, messed with my peace, and cluttered my mind with unnecessary stress.

This is how I paid for not being able to say NO.

It’s very refreshing.

What are some mind-blowing facts about Michael Jackson?

Many people especially girls will be able to connect with this answer.

I am thankful to my profession & how I started from scratch that I was able to become so blunt & straight forward.

It’s very settling.

What is the American mobile phone number format?

I used to be the kind of person who found it incredibly hard to say no. I would keep people’s feelings above mine.

It’s very freeing.

I lost a lot of money trying to fit in. I don’t like expensive English meals at fancy restaurants. But my friends did. I couldn’t say No thinking I would be judged. But I love ‘Desi food’. I didn’t enjoy the food, & I ended up paying huge split bills so many times

What made you stop being an addict?

I would spend hours, sometimes days, replaying the decision in my head, regretting my response, wishing I had been honest.

Everytime I said yes when I wanted to say no, I paid the price.

I have ruined my sleep & rest hours with nonsense calls from nonsense people. No matter what the time, I have picked up their calls & listened to their rant for hours. I could not be blunt saying, ‘no am not interested in talking’

Why do so many people seem to hate Nickelback? They're competent and entertaining, and while they certainly aren't the absolute best music, they're still a fun listen.
