Do you often find it difficult to say no to others? Are you always worried that your words or decisions will make others unhappy? Or, you clearly want to express your opinion, but you are always afraid of being rejected and choose to remain silent? If you have ever had such confusion, you may have a certain tendency to please others.
**What is a pleaser personality? **
A pleaser personality is a behavioral pattern that is excessively concerned about the feelings of others and deliberately caters to the needs of others. On the surface, such people tend to be gentle and friendly, and are ‘good guys’ in the social circle. But in fact, they may be under tremendous psychological pressure for a long time: while fearing conflict and isolation, they suppress their true thoughts and needs. Over time, this pattern will bring about inner conflicts and fatigue, and even affect one’s emotions and quality of life.
**What are the typical manifestations of a pleaser personality? **
For example: unable to refuse other people’s requests, worried that their refusal will anger the other person; often afraid of disappointing others, and would rather wrong themselves to satisfy the other person; in a team or family, they always silently take on more responsibilities but are not understood… …These behaviors may all be signs of a people-pleaser personality.

Are you troubled by the people-pleasing personality?
Long-term flattering behavior will have a profound impact on an individual’s emotions and life: you may ignore your own inner needs because you always satisfy others, and you may even fall into a cycle of ’the more the other person advances, the more I feel wronged.’ What’s worse is that, instead of bringing about true understanding and gratitude, ingratiating behavior can leave you feeling lonely and self-denying.
