Another example is this meme itself.
Everyone does some people pleasing here and there yet in my life people pleasing has serious effects on my personal relationships and I’m having to learn to deal with this.
“Mac, it’s not that we dont care and dont want to please them, i know. It’s that we arent going to please them at the expense of ourself, right?” Yes, brain… 😩

What does the trashcan icon mean?
Not sure? Maybe a moderator deleted my comment, but it’s still visible with some Lemmy clients?
