[Joshua D.]

I wanna be very friendly and nice and ive always been and give more then that is asked but i feel alot of times thats the wrong way and you get taken advantage of. Lately i have changed my ways and tried to not be so friendly from my past experiences but have some really good people around me and wanna take care of them and keep everyone long term. What is best way to approach this?
