Dr. Bell talks about going above and beyond for others who do not and will not go above and beyond for you. Blessing others more than you are reciprocating is how we find ourselves becoming burned out. Some people pull on you because they know you will bend over backwards for others but they cannot be found when you need someone to bend for you.

A leech attaches to you only to suck you dry. The commitment only runs skin deep. For many that looks like a friends with benefits situation. For most that is simply a sexual relationship. Leeches never give anything to you. Stop acting as if you are in a committed relationship with anyone who you do not have any commitment with. Stop tossing your blessings away to others. Stop being so sacrificial that you find yourself being suicidal. People will pull you dry. The flesh is a bottomless pit. There are people who have no intention to build anything with you but they will make it sound as if they do. Simply to get you to compensate for the desires in their heart. Stop listening to what they say and believe what you see is in their heart.
