Chukwu(@Eziahatoka):I used to treat every “no” like a personal challenge. I’d keep pushing, explaining, persuading… convinced I could persuade anybody to give in. Most times it failed. The few times it worked, something always broke afterward. People grew colder. Quieter. More distant. I didn’t realize I was teaching them that their boundaries didn’t matter to me. Now I know: getting what you want means nothing if you lose respect in the process
