Takers

Have you ever ran across or do you frequently run across people I call takers.  A taker is someone who is all about themselves, and want others to be all about them too.  In fact their favorite phrases are give me, I want, can I have, will you...etc.  I could go on, but you get the picture.  You will hardly ever hear words from takers like: would you like me to, I can do this for you, or I am willing to help where needed, etc.  

Takers, don't give, they only receive and the more they receive the more bold they become, and before long they are taking or attempting to take from strangers.  Being a taker or being thought of as a taker is close to one of the worse ways one can be described, and the worse way to receive anything.  Receiving comes from giving, and givers always give.  

How do you deal with the takers in your life?  Join the conversation!
