       Heck yes.
       I had a roommate before I married that stole money from me.  She
       said she paid bills when I gave her half the bill in cash and
       she didn't.  Claimed the check must have gotten lost or
       something.  I was young and stupid.  Figured it out when she got
       fired from the job we both worked at.  She had written checks at
       work for cash (we had a place you could cash checks for cash
       like a bank), and 9 checks bounced.

       Yes, I think it happens to everybody. We have to learn to set
       boundaries. There are kind and decent people out there. Hugs.

       take advantage of you? I have had this happen many times in my
       life and someone new is trying to do it now. I am too nice but I
       don't want my niceness taken for weakness and have someone take
       advantage of it.
       If you have ever had this done, what did you do to stop
       it/control it?

       Multiple times. I tend to remove people like that from my life.

       I will say first, ALL THE TIME!  But there are different levels
       of being taken advantage of.

       I feel bad for you.  To this post, I responded in capital
       letter, ALL THE TIME.

       Yes there are decent people.  Actually, most people are decent.

       Here is my added reply.  MONEY.  Money is usually the motive.

       Yes, right now my brother has a friend staying here, been here
       since Feb. Told him I'm done being used and that if he wasn't
       going to make her pay rent then she has to go.
       He told me to deal with it cause he ain't got the heart.
       Told her flat out, her freelancing days are over and that she
       needs to move on. She has done nothing to better her situation,
       refused to pay rent, I already told her she has to buy her own
       food that I'm not feeding her.
       Supposedly she found a place to rent. For more than what her
       rent here would be. SMH.

       i have been taken advantage of by close people to me, but this
       time it's someone new (my DD's friend's mom). But I have
       boundaries now so I am not allowing it, but it still annoys and
       bothers me.

       that's what i do now as well. but like you, it took me soo long
       to learn how to set boundaries. i still struggle with it
       sometimes and then it seems like i constantly learn lessons and
       have to put bigger boundaries up with certain people that come
       along.

       [font=verdana]Definitely, more times than I'd like to count but
       not as much now.   It's taken many years and failed attempts to
       learn how to set boundaries.    I've distanced myself from the
       ones that won't respect my boundaries now.   [/font]
