Why do people take advantage of kindness?

Helping the needy and developing a benevolent nature are advisable and quite encouraging. However when it is carried far it would have unwelcome repercussions.

So many people know that in this world,so you need to see clear of this fact.Well good attitude toward life is still important.But do not disappointed at someone cuz it's not worth it.Be real you and do good to someone who deserve that.Have a nice day.

Each time when I teach new students, I have been nice and kind to them. At the very beginning, we are not quite familiar with each other, but as time goes by, we get to know each other better and better. Then some students take advantage of my kindness to them when they get to know my being good tempered. They usually ask me to do many things for them, like helping them order something for them online, charging their mobile phones in my office and so on. Some of them are nice, but some of them are not as nice as before...There is so much to think about when talking about taking advantage of kindness. So long as we are both nice and kind to each other, it is ok with me. Take care.

there are many variety of persons personality. im actually a victim of it..Lol kindness should be in moderate

Those people who take advantage over other's kindness are insensitive people. They are not fully aware that what they are doing is actually being abusive. But others are really aware of their actions and just do not care whatever the other person may feel.

Because of lack of values. Blame it on the faulty up bringing.

Well, it happens with a lot of us. People start thinking that if someone is kind and amiable, and is nice, they would not say anything even if they are badly dealt with. Hence, they start behaving badly and take advantage of niceties. It is deplorable, yet such things keep on happening.

Life is full of survival issues. I mean we do a lot of things just to survive. If life is easy these actswon't be happening. But don't be saddened by these acts, there are a lot of people doing good that evil ... and good always wins.

Because most people are taking full advantage of it- while it lasts. I am a victim of those kind- and have learned my lesson. I have responded to one discussion who also ask almost same question like this and I wrote there that- I was use to be a very soft hearted person, too emotional. But being kind take to some kind of level- of disappointment. Now I know how to say NO- to avoid disappointment and getting hurt. That will also prevent us from hurting other people's feeling in the end.

Some individuals are opportunists who when they see an easy way to take advantage for self interest would disregard ethics and values to gain something. They see this chance through kindness of some who are almost too trusting with people.

People without morals will take advantage of people, mainly because they're greedy and lazy.

Because it's easy to exploit. And the one who gives it usually has no clue that the kindness itself is being exploited. No decent person will ever do that but many abusive person do and sometimes thw one who gives kindness are clueless that they are being exploited.

Sometimes it happens when we let them do that to us once, the next time they'll try again to see if they can get away with it until it becomes a habit to them. There are really people who will put you to the limit, you helped them once, they'll go back again and again and again just because you never refuse them and every time they do that, they get use to the idea that you're an easy target. So for me it depends upon a person if he'll let himself be taken advantage of.

simple, someone is insecure of you but dont mind it instead they will realize someday that you are right......
