I'm the least assertive person you could possibly meet, and will probably only say no to something when I'm at breaking point.
I do believe that so much of my life would be different if I was able to put my foot down without fearing that the other person will physically attack me or something because I said no.
Same. If I said no, expressed unhappiness, or made the wrong facial expression as a child I would be threatened or hit. I still expect it to happen now.
I'm the same. It doesn't feel safe enough.
Even though the absolute worst that could happen is that someone is a bit unhappy but I wish I didn't put that over my comfort.
