Is it normal to wanna please everyone ALL the time?? I mean it gets annoying sometimes, I'll be in the middle of an argument and I'll concede because I feel horrible when someone I care about is mad at me.. Even if i'm justified in being angry, it'll evaporate as soon as someone gets the least bit ticked at me!! It's sooo frustrating and i wish it would stop!! Any suggestions??

    I do the same thing so I'd say it's normal but most people I tell me I should put myself in front of others' happiness and I just can't do it.

    Some of us relish the emotional rather than the rational side of life. You are one of those persons. But you must seek to balance your life by selecting rationality where necessary and emotionality where appropriate. Practice viewing every situation as falling within one or the other parameters and deliberately select a different approach each time you are confronted with the choice.

    Well you don't like arguments. That is not the same as pleasing everyone. Do you not realize the difference? Think about it.

    It's extremely normal to wish to please everyone. Happiness is the energy that fuels is and that void in our heart we were built to never have filled. The feeling comes from wanting to fill that hole and have everyone love you. I am the same way and it would be a better world if everyone swallowed their pride and selfishness in turn for a brighter look on life.

    It is normal for some people, myself included, but since I have found Jesus, I realize pleaseing Him is way more important.

    I ihink it's normal but try think about youself and what you want sometimes which will help you have a better backbone and may make you happier at times.
