Happy Sunday fam.❤️
Why do you think some people feel entitled to what doesn't belong to them?
You ask someone for help, and because the person couldn't meet up, yes you will feel disappointed
But concluding the person is wicked!
Naa 👎
Familiarity makes people feel entitled, the more closer you're the more they expect things from you. Also the fact that they are used to getting it from you, so saying no to them makes them feel somehow, they feel like you're rejecting them or they are now unimportant.
Like who thinks like that.
God abeg.
Why I brought this conversation up is that.
My uncle was expecting a nice contract and his brother needed money from him for his rent.
So he promised him the money.
The contract was delayed and he couldn't meet up.
And because he couldn't meet up his brother stop talking to him.
Not even a call, what if something bad had happened to my uncle that's how he would be keeping quiet.
That's bad. Why would I be angry because someone could not help me.
Well, that is you dear.
Very few people are wired that way. I don't know what to say about his brother, but I just feel he should have been understanding enough and at least check in. If I was your uncle, if the stuff later shows up which I pray it should, I wouldn't give him ...
.. him a dime. He clearly shows he's not for me, he's only after what I have to offer.
Spot on! This was one of the things I tried to explain that day when I mentioned people who borrow from you. The familiarity can become to consuming to the point of entitlement. That's why the ball is in our court to say no sometimes to avoid this poor attitude from them.
Exactly 💯
Yeah yeah yeah 😊👍
I very well understand that. Just that most of them take the no personally, they most times do not see it as you saying no to their requests, they see you saying no to them... Like...
It's really disheartening to see people become entitled to another person's pocket. I hate it soo much. I can give someone something, but the moment they start feeling entitled, I'll cut them off asap
I agree with you.
Some people don't understand that they are not the only ones with problems. But even during a phase some people are still willing to help. But because they couldn't meet up then it's a problem.
It's a very much a tendency. When people have gotten so close and familiar to a certain someone, it's almost like their brain and whole body system automatically clicks on receiving a yes and yes and yes to every of their request which is quite ridiculous.
A horrible mindset!
People feel entitled because they're either not properly raised or they're too self-absorbed that they think everything revolves around them.
Such people are my least favourite and it hurts when you have learned to take rejections but they haven't. It's terrible.
It's terrible o sis. Because wattt, I'm actually scared of anyone with that mindset.
At least if someone says I try and do something to help you. Is not as if they have sometimes but they just feel sympathy or care.
What if something bad happened to the person and couldn't meet up. Some people en.
