It’s sad how a lot of people have this huge reservoir of devotional capacity, but don’t direct it anywhere beyond obsessing over themselves. That energy needs to be poured out somewhere. Serve people. Love someone. Create. Devote yourself to some craft. Give more of yourself away
I’ve never looked at someone’s terrible boundaries or lack of confidence and thought, let me come and take advantage of it. In fact when I notice someone isn’t living in their power or agency, I feel compelled to teach them how to be more self assured. So although yes, people should be more self protective. It takes a bad person, to take advantage of someone that clearly isn’t. And they should be called out for it.
