People-pleasing refers to the tendency to please & seek validation from others, even at someone’s own expense. People pleasers are usually people who find it difficult to disappoint others and fear being rejected or abandoned eventually. People pleasers tend to seem very friendly and kind, the type of people who go to great lengths to help others even if they aren’t asked to do so. These people tend to care whether others like them and approve of their actions in general. People-pleasing tends to become a pattern that people unconsciously adapt in order to avoid criticism, embarrassment, or rejection. Answer 30 questions and see how much of a people-pleaser you are!

    Hi, I’m a writer here at Bored Panda. When I’m not writing, you can find me reading books, binge-watching TV shows, making pottery and jewelry, or cooking. I love good food and good company. I also love my dog and cat who bring me so much joy every day.

    This is 44 year old Nikole though. Good to know I’ve changed: You are definitely not a people-pleaser. You seem like the type of person who is quite assertive, bold, and honest. Your honesty is sometimes known to offend people, even if your intentions are good. You don’t do things for other people to like you; in fact, you do things even if you know they won’t like you. People-pleasers should take lessons on how to be assertive from you.

    I got this answer too. Makes me sound quite a bulldozer. I used to be a people pleaser, but I think I've grown beyond that now. I still do my best not to upset people, but not at the expense of my self worth or principles.

    I have the tendency, but I’m not chronic: “You may have the energy to resist this people-pleasing urge, yet sometimes, you find yourself getting stuck in this pattern of behavior. You may need to assert yourself when necessary so as not to feel as if you’re a doormat later on. In the long run, you may feel frustrated and resentful by giving in to your people-pleasing tendencies.
