Reciprocating. Betrayal.

My mother used to tell me,
Treat others the way you want to be treated.
Why is that so?
Because they will treat you the same way you treat them.
But now, I know that what she said was
Definitely incorrect.
It is only natural that people will take for granted of your niceness and willingness to compromise, as it is Human Nature to betray.
I was really a fool to have thought for one moment that this fact could possibly be false.
If being mean is what it takes for these to stop, then I'll gladly do it.
It is not as though I have no experience doing so.
Hopefully, you will learn to not take things for granted after this lesson.

The bell has rung, and its time for lessons to start.
