I think there's a thin line between being nice and being walked on. People don't understand that just because you're sweet and kind it does not mean that you will not do what you need to do to achieve your goals. For example, I can be a really big B. But I try not to be because I know it doesn't look good on my part, nor do I enjoy being that way, but when it has to be, I don't have a choice. Nice girls finish last because they don't know how to be anything but nice. I went to an all-girls school and I found that the nice people were usually easy to walk all over. Because girls don't understand that 'nice' doesn't have to mean what they think it means. To me, being nice is being respectful. I can only respect people to a certain extent, when they begin to mistreat me or when I notice that they're using me, I become the person no one wants to anger. I can't control what people do or how they act, but I can certainly adjust my reaction and feelings to match what they making me experience.
