I have realised one thing about people, the more you try to be compromising and accommodating the more you are taken advantage of.I feel that it is better to stick to your principles without hurting or harming anyone , but being firm has its advantages...

They would not only consider you weak but incompetent. The times have changed, I know with my own experiences.

Very true sunil,most people dont think beyond themselves and their families .I have seen with my own close relatives .Another point is that the more you ignore and try to keep aloof the more you are in demand :P

That is the reason I never give up easily, I simply go to the point where I feel my point is true and worthy. Although I never fail to accept my fault, if so.

All said and done, it is one of the most difficult tasks in the world.You can afford to ignore some, but you cannot do that with people who matter and even there you have to really do a tight rope act ! The larger the family the more difficult it becomes :huh: :unsure:

I have just responded to another thread where i said maintaining relations is not that difficult provided the money part is not involved too much. That is mother of all evil.

This is fact when money gets involved in the relationship it spoils relationship that's why never try to borrow or lend money to friends or relatives. :)
