4. Asking for help and favors too often

Your phone rings. You take a look at caller ID and immediately know that you are about to hear something like, “I need a favor from you. You’ve got to help me on that.”

Some people are incredible. They believe that a world owes them. For some reasons they are convinced that everyone has one single mission in life – to do their chores, solve their problems and support them in anyway possible.

Some of them tend to be upset when a person has something more important to do. Often times they find lame excuses or nowhere to be found when others need their help.

There is no surprise that such people aren’t liked. Eventually many of their acquaintances begin to avoid them in every way possible.

Of course there are notable exceptions. I wasn’t talking about people who suffer from medical problems or have other legitimate reasons to ask for help.

5. Imposing oneself on others

It would be great if everyone was glad to see us, agreed with our opinions on and shared our values. Some people are having hard time realizing that it is not always this way.

They impose themselves on others in various ways. Some show up for parties uninvited or stop by for personal visits without a prior phone call. Others always tell people what to do and how to live their lives. There are people who wouldn’t let someone finish a sentence. They have more important stories to tell and opinions to express.

All of the above exemplifies overbearing behavior. If you don’t want to be ridiculed or even detested, I suggest that you avoid acting in such a manner.

Many people believe that it takes something horrible or despicable to make someone an enemy. Sometimes it is more about events that occur on every day basis. It is very important to realize that mistakes similar to those described in this article can go a long way in terms of how people perceive and treat you.
