Assertiveness that works?
May 4, 2015 at 6:44 am
In my life I feel like saying "no" puts me at a disadvantage and causes conflict, makes things worse and I am basically better off saying "yes" to anyone except strangers/acquaintances/people on the internet.

I also feel that if others say "no" to me there is nothing I can do about it.

I feel like I've felt this way, since I was 12 years old, I feel like I have never won an argumentative argument, I have only won debates.

I feel that in the real world winning arguments is less about being "right" or "wrong" and more about a social dominance that I don't have and never have.

I feel fucking frustrated.
