know them by their fruits.
if someone has a repeated pattern of hurting you, all else held constant, that person will continue to hurt you.
the same goes for exploiting your kindness, lying to you, abusing you, etc.
these people are not to be trusted. you need to close your heart to them.
at the age of 32, i have learned my lesson. i cannot continue to turn the other cheek and sacrifice myself to people who refuse to respect me. it is pointless to sacrifice myself for people who do not love me.
