Why do I feel like there's a need to please so many people?

Because it's an inherent part of human nature to seek acceptance and validation - when we don't get that, it chips away at our self-esteem and leads to self-doubt and feelings of unworthiness. It's not healthy to feel this kind of pressure, because it masks what lies within - our true character, raw and untethered - the version of ourselves we should always present to the world, but instead keep hidden for the fear of rejection.

Some people feel like they've got please everyone and it's hard to deal with sometimes. I can't say for sure why you feel the need to please so many people, but I can say you're not alone in feeling this way and there are ways to get past this feeling.

You sound like you have a caring heart! It's nice to want to please people-- it even feels good to know that we made someone else happy. However, this can sometimes get out of balance; we need to weigh our own happiness by that of others. It's okay to want to help people, as long as you don't forget about yourself.

i feel the more people i please the better of a person i am. Its almost like i need it to feel good about myself

That's a good question. I may not have the best answer per say but I can tell you why I think I have to please so many people. I feel the need and some others feel the need to please so many people because they want to feel loved and cared about. They want to feel like they are doing something right, they want to feel proud even though trying to please people doesn't always make them feel proud. I feel like no matter who you are or who you're trying to be, its not the most effective decision to try to change who you are to please others. If you are happy with yourself, great! If you aren't happy with yourself, make some changes to help you be happy with yourself. You don't have to change who you are to please others.

Because society tells people that they have to be perfect and that they need to have everything be good in their lives. And that's stupid

Sometimes, we get the need to please many people around us because of the lack of love, care, and attention that we need.

We feel that if we please people, we feel secure. If we please people, then we believe that they must love us for it and we as humans strive for love.

You seem like a person who has a good heart and good hearted people tend to want to take care of everyone else and sometimes you need to relax and take a moment to please yourself..

Societal conditioning + other's people's expectations of you. Just focus on pleasing yourself and you'll be much happier.
