It was compliment so take it as such. I know you and you're a nice person. She also meant for you to stand up for yourself, though, and not let anyone push you around. She was giving you some good advice, there. You don't look for trouble but you don't take any crap, either. You'll be fine, my friend. |

Be flattered, but have sceptical edge. Make people know you are wary you may be being insulted. That way you'll ward off any tension. |

I would take it as a compliment. There aren't to many nice people left in todays society. |

Franks right....I've gotten the 'your too nice for your own good' speel as well....they say it to be truthful but also as a 'warning' to be heeded....that if you don't learn to say 'no' and such....people will use your niceness against you.... |

I'm clueless to that question because my mom has said the same thing and I'm not sure what to think of it. I agree with you, it is much easier to be nice than to be mean to someone. -BreathingBody |
