My new rule for September is that I’m going to say “no” more

. I always feel bad saying no, so I end up spending time in places I don’t want to be, with people I don’t want to be with. I feel so selfish saying no, but it’s draining to be a people pleaser.

For starters, on HelloTalk, if you are not a native Japanese/Korean speaker, not learning either of those languages, and/or are unwilling to answer language questions/help me in return for helping you…no I will not help you learn English or correct your assignments, etc.

I’m sorry if that’s selfish, but it is what it is.
