I remember watching a movie, although I don’t remember which one it was, where a girl made fun of another girl for being dependable. Yep. That’s not a typo. She said something like, “Oh Heather is the dependable girl. Obviously she’s trying to be the teacher’s pet.”
I don’t see how being a dependable girl, or guy, should be considered bad.
After all, don’t you like knowing people you can count on? I know I sure do. Yeah, give me a dependable girl or guy over a dangerous type any day of the week. And twice on Sunday.
And these days you gotta keep a keen eye (and ear) open for users and selfish con artists. If you haven’t had to deal with one, up close and personal, consider yourself fortunate. They’re not always easy to spot. But the good news is, people show you who they are over time. Dependable OR dangerous.
And when you hone your radar skills, eventually you can develop a sort of sixth sense. That radar will beep faster when the dangerous types get close. But it takes practice.
And that practice includes being clear about your values and principles. Because the questionable characters tend to avoid business owners who make it clear who they are and what they stand for. They’ll see you can’t easily be sidetracked by fast talk and something twinkly.
It sort of goes back to the old saying: “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.” Until someone proves to be a dependable girl or guy, just assume they aren’t. Never ignore red flags. And time can reveal red flags. But if you do get involved (or are involved) with a dangerous type, on any level, use your “see ya later” secret weapon.
Stand up for yourself. Make them earn your trust. You deserve it.
