Why
can't I say "No" to people and why do people expect me to do so much? Oh that's right because I don't say NO. I'm a little annoyed I have to drive to Jax Saturday morning after driving 4 hours to Albany Friday to pick a friend up. Yeah she's splitting gas but geez why can't you drive?

Re: Why
I wish I could do this. I'm the type that can't ever say No, too. I think I'd get a lot less butthurt and frustrated sometimes if I could learn this too.
Sorry, Emily. I'm not much help, but I'm right there with ya, girl.
I spent most of my life thus far not being able to say no for various reasons - didn't want to feel guilty, didn't want to hurt someone's feelings, didn't want to be thought of as not doing my part/enough/what have you.
Then a year or so ago I took out a calendar, marked down everything I did for a month, then went back over at the end and highlighted the things I really did NOT want to do. There were way too many!
Some things you have to do because you're bound by duty, but many things you really don't. When a situation comes up, now I think will the world end if I don't do this? What is making me think I have to say yes to this?
It is very hard to make the change, but it is so awesome. Sometimes I still say yes to things I don't want to do, and I kick myself after, but I am proud of the fact that 95% of the time, I am able to say no to things I don't want to do. Leaving me with a lot of time to do what is good for me.
