I've been introspective today and it occurred to me that I don't think about WHY someone asks a question. I just answer it in the most honest way I can. I've had instances where much later the person used my answer in a harmful way and when I am shocked about it I'm told by others I should have known not to answer that particular question. does anyone else do this? My anxiety makes it to where my knee jerk reaction is to people-please to the max and I find it extremely stressful to potentially let down someone's expectations.

      I am definitely a people pleaser. But I guess I’m also jaded and don’t trust people and think people always have ulterior motives. So I’ll answer their questions. But answer carefully after thinking about the meaning behind the question.

      I do this too. I feel like I must please everyone all the time, so if I’m asked something, I must answer it, even if I’m not supposed to
