    my ex-boyfriend did this to me. our relationship was one-sided. i did and initiated everything while he just took and took and took. my love. my money. my time. its my fault for not realizing it sooner. i couldn't admit to myself that he was that type of person to use people. he did the same to others around him, it was only a matter of time before i admitted to myself he was doing it to me also. nobody is exempt from users, they only care about themselves. i'm finding it very hard to move on because of the investment i put into him and the way he would make me feel, on top of the world (rarely but it felt special to me). but none of it was genuine. its a hard lesson im learning even at age 28.

    This was an important video for me to watch. Lately I've been feeling very used, being pulled in all directions to help others when I barely have time to work on my goals. And they don't ever make room for me. My one friend is constantly asking me for help with her college assignments. Last year it went too far and took up too much of my time. And now it was pretty much impossible for me to make time for her with all of my other issues. She's really struggling in so many ways right now which aren't at all her fault, and I care about her. I wanted so badly to help but this time I felt a little like no one cared about me. So I said I would see if I could help and let her know. And she waited for me to respond but I never did, and she did poorly on her midterms. So I actually made a big mistake and hurt her and the situation even more because I didn't communicate, I couldn't say no even though I wanted to so badly. Set your boundaries. And if they seem disappointed in you, you need to just make it a conversation. I care about my friend. Just as I apologized for thinking I could make room in my schedule even though it was unrealistic, she apologized too. She said that having people help her is the only way she feels loved. She said she needs to work on that. I think that having this honest conversation really helped us both. Everyone needs space, self healing, and to find the answers that work for you.

      Even if someone like this approaches you, don't fall for them. Ask some questions to yourself before making anyone your friend, because not everyone deserves a beautiful friendship-
      1. Do I genuinely feel happier with this person?
      2. Does this person care for my needs or concerns or is least bothered?
      3. Is he just sticking with me for his own benefit?
      If the answers to these questions are not satisfactory i.e. it proves that this person is either using you or is a fake friend. Beware of such people. Being alone is better than having such fake/toxic or selfish friends.
      Ask other people around him, about his nature, obviously you won't directly ask them about that person's nature, but indirectly ask them or observe his behaviours around them. Try to find someone who is genuinely considerate and caring and who makes you feel happier when you are with them, life will be beautiful than ever and if you already have one person who is like that in your life, you are the luckiest person.

    This made me remeber when I was in 5th grade, and I got bullied a lot. So when someone asked to be friends, I wouldn't hesitate to say yes because of the bullying.But I didn't realize this person was using me I should've got all the hints when she'd ask me to buy her something from the book fair or when she only talked to me for answers to my homework or test. She wasn't a really nice friend either but she made me believe I would be nothing without her so I stuck by her side, until I finally snapped. She was talking about me and spreading rumors that I heard from all my bullies talking about it.So I told the principal everything and she got expelled along with everyone whoever bullied me. It sucks to get taken advantage of because you think the person you known for half of your life actually cared about you. so the message I am trying to convey here is watch for what the person does watch the small little things they do so that you can see if they're using you or not l.To anyone who's gotten taken advantage of I hope you got justice or cut that person off because nobody deserves it EVER.

She might fail that class because she did bad on the first exam, bad on the second exam and now all we have left is a final, so good luck to her and if she didn't try and used me I would have genuinely help her. 😈😈😈

    I was just recently broken up with by a girl who manipulated me into thinking EVERYTHING was my fault and making me seem AWFUL for the mistakes that i made, took accountability for, and did what I could to make them up to her. I told friends about the relationship, in which she called me manipulative constantly, and every one of them, even friends her and I shared, said she was being manipulative and I can relate all 10 of these things to specific examples of things she did.

      Same, my best friend that i've known for about 6 years has gotten ruder and ruder each year. She yells at me constantly and only cares about what other people should think about her. I went on a group call with 5 people (all the people me and her know) and all of them agreed that they hate her cause of her attitude, she deserved it but i wish she could of gotten better, i feel kind of guilty and sick just thinking about how nobody likes her that much and i wish i could of done her good but she uses all her friends. One time she asked me to buy her something and i said i'm saving up but after that she started whining and yelling an screaming at me so i had to agree. I haven't talked to her in a month and honestly i'm real happy cause she was giving me anxiety and making me feel bad about myself.

    I had a best friend for twelve years, until last year. During the summer break, she deleted me on all social media, and I noticed a month later- she unfollowed me before that as well, multiple times. I was always the one asking to hang out, and she never wanted to be at my house. She was often angry at me, but I thought it was normal that people where angry sometimes. I often blamed myself, and when we fought, I was the only one to say sorry even though I did nothing wrong. Once, I lost my completely new phone on my way home from her house, and she didn’t let me look for it at her house “because it was my fault, and it shouldn’t affect her”. She also only invited me to the last part of her birthday partys, where she and her friends would go bowling, eat pizza and slush, and then go home to her house and eat cake, and I only got invited to the cake part, not knowing they were going bowling. I’m actually really happy I’m not friends with her anymore. She was really toxic, and I feel like I’m becoming a better person. I don’t hate her tho. I don’t miss her one bit. It’s kind of strange tho, cuz we take the same bus home from school everyday, and walk the same way from the bus. She often glance at me and quickly looks away. I hope she’s having a great life, even though she was like that. I also had another reeeaaally toxic best friend the first to years of school. I was very little so I didn’t understand what she was doing was wrong. When the bell rang, she would hold me, and hit me multiple times. Especially if I did something she didn’t like and she got angry at me. She often hit me, and got angry. I started pretending to be sick so I wouldn’t meet her, when I was SIX. I understand though, cuz her parents got divorced, but still.
    That was very long sorry- I just had to get it out. Also, English isn’t my first language, so there might be some sentences that doesn’t make sense. There’s also other things I would like to include, but it’s long enough as it is-

    I think I had something similar to this happen to me. I was friends with someone who once got me to write a story for them. I didn't want to, but they kept begging me to, and when I kept saying "no", they pouted which made me feel bad and I did it for them. Throughout the writing process they acted really pushy and demanding and was really nitpicky on what went in the story. They also had me write a second story while working on this one, and they used the same tactics: repeatedly beg me, then pouted about it when I kept telling them no. Not sure if it's the same as using me but yeah.

    Lots of good info here😊 I just want to add that if you have a friend that doesn't often initiate calls and visits there could be a less cynical reason. In fact, I have complex post traumatic stress disorder and I have a hard time even answering my phone at times. Leaving my home often involves a lot of mental climbing the wall first. I appreciate and love those who don't give up and call me a flake.💖 They are real friends, the best😊

He tried those old tactics of being nice only once and draw back, but no more. I have learnt my lesson. It still hurts that we are no more friends. But I love myself too much to be manipulated by him. This video confirmed my thoughts about him.

    I sounds a lot like my step sister and the worst part is I had to live in the same house under our parent's strict rules and abuse. Her mother always takes her side! Every time she wants something from me I say "NO!" So she runs to her mother with fake tears telling some sort of concocted lie and then she tells my father and I end up treated like I'm the bad guy! Yet he wonders why I never get things done like I was supposed to! I try to explain to them how it was all of my step sisters doing and They chew me out for making up excuses and lying, only I wasn't lying and there was nothing I could do about it! I could have left home but they would later find me, drag me home, beat me to a pulp and then keep me locked in a room! So that wasn't an option. It was by some miracle my real mother helped me out of that situation and helped me to to become independent. I find it hard to trust anyone these days after all of all that cruelty I suffered from others growing up. Other than that, life has been really good so far.
