Some people will take, take, then take again if it means they don't have to exercise the part of their brain that's capable of critical thinking. In some cases, these individuals lack the ability to do so from the outset. That's why it's important to lead with kindness, even when you think that someone is trying to purposely slight you.
Take your neighbors, for example. There needs to be some level of trust established between you and them. Assuming someone is out to get you is a rookie mistake; this leads to unnecessary tension that could have been cleared up with a simple note or text message, allowing everyone some clarity as a result.
That being said… It's challenging to write off repeated behavior. When you feel like you can't confront, say, a new neighbor, for example, you have to ask someone who is in charge of your property (if that isn't already you).
