Anyone else struggling with being caring or selfless with a hard time setting boundaries fated to be endlessly disappointed by people who shaft, lie, cheat, steal and otherwise take advantage of one another?

Not being able to say no. I like everyone to be happy. But I feel like people just use each other constantly. If it's not about them, or their interests, they simply tune out and stop caring

>They don't actually like you, only what you do for them
>They only talk about themselves
>You have to talk about them or something related to them
>You have to ask questions and try to make it interesting for them (they won't do this for you)
>If you share something about yourself, they are instantly disinterested and don't care
>They don't care to ask you anything and don't want to know anything about you
>The moment you stop making any effort, everything stops
>They're sincerely not interested unless it's sharing something about themselves or their interests
>They vent and complain to you constantly even if it drains the fuck out of you
>When they are having a bad day, you want to be there for them. If you are having a bad day, they don't care
>People who only ask how you are so they can talk about their problems
>Friends sometimes need more support after a bad day or life-altering event. That is normal. But if you have a bad day or life-altering event, they literally don't care
>They will dominate a whole conversation no matter how many people are present. If it's a one on one conversation then it feels like it's 90/10.
>Most advice about being a good listener and putting in effort is met with being totally one-sided
>People just talk about themselves constantly
>If you are on a 2 hour date, they'll just talk about themselves constantly
>You may as well be invisible
>>
I am none of those things and I will stay for who I love no matter what.

Even when it hurts

I feel the first part of what you're saying OP, about having a hard time saying no to others. I don't have any of the problems you listed tho, because I just avoid people I don't like so I don't even have to say no to them
