This chain of events is a good representation of my entire life
I am a literal human doormat
Any other doormats out there?

Stop it op.
>>29984009
Right here, OP. I guess it comes with being a complete and pathetic beta
>>29984009
Iktf. Whenever anyone around me is sad or angry I feel like it's somehow my job to fix it and if I fail I feel guilty, even though I had nothing to do with causing their feelings.
You've done enough OP
You don't have to keep doing it
>>29984009
I do it too, but I always ask for something in exchange, that way I managed to skip several weeks of unnecessary work at uni. You should do it like this OP.

>tfw you get tired of being a doormat and you stand up for yourself
>"gee anon, your an egotistical asshole"
Stop being a fucking doormat man. It's ok to always think about others but there is no reason for you to be a people pleaser if you expect something in return. Sure, respect your friends and help a friend in need, but make sure they are worth it.

Iktf. I can't even express myself in conversations because I'm always thinking about how what I'm saying could affect them. Makes me seem really passive and boring
