I'm sick of being nice.

Being nice = people use you and chuck you aside and then pretend that nothing ever happened.

Being nice = they still pretend to be your friend, where friend is defined as someone you look for when you need him/her to do something for you.

Being nice = you still have to pretend to be their friend, where friend is defined as someone who takes all their shit when they need people to do so.

Being nice = smiling and saying hi even though all you want to do is to run far far away, 'cause seeing the "friend" makes you feel nauseous.

Being nice = taking the blame even when it's not your fault. Or allowing others to verbally abuse you through mere insinuation, and not doing anything about it (e.g. hurling vulgarities at them).

I WILL STOP INVESTING SO MUCH IN MY FRIENDSHIPS/WORK/WHATEVER. Bloody hell.

Being nice once leads to appreciation. Twice, people take it for granted. Thrice, and people start to expect it.

Alright I'm just in one of those moods. I shall go and sleep it off and hide at home for a day.
