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

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

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

It’s very freeing.

Atheists claim that Earth is 10 billion years old, yet there are no fossils that old. What do you have to say for yourselves for lying?

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

But my mind wouldn’t let go of it.

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

Why do I get stressed when I go to bed?

It has been an easy life.

It’s very refreshing.

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

Is it true that most Indian men are gay and they just hide their feelings?

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

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

Do you usually wear your panties over or under your pantyhose?

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

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

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 heterosexual men like anal sex with women? I think it's because they secretly want to have anal sex with a man? What do you think?

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

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

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

Should Pete Rose's record as the all-time hits leader be recognized and celebrated?

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.

It’s very freeing.

What is the best way to get my wife to become a hotwife?

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

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.

No meant she is being rebellious.

Why do Trump supporters believe Trump should deport the immigrants? These people you call "illegal immigrants" have lived here for many years, they have houses, jobs, how can you think they will just go back to their country, where they have nothing?
