Dragonflymagic answered Thursday October 24 2013, 10:43 pm: another example that might help, taking a person for granted, especially family and friends, is assuming they will always be there, so using mom for example no matter if you're teen or an adult...the nice things mom always does for you, always thinking of you, ready to encourage you when life gets tough, great at cheering you up, etc....You can get so used to it that you no longer notice how special it is...until it's gone. We have no guarantee a person will be around tomorrow...they could die early in an accident, or in old age when their time comes.
Even marriages...lets say the guy doesn't treat her very special, when he's had a bad day he dumps on her, he's critical and ignores her alot. He assumes because they have a marriage license and she doesn't have a job and relies on him for her livlihood that she'll always be there for him. But one day, she may decide she's tired of not being appreciared and loved and taken for granted, so she leaves him and divorces him.
Always be the kind of person who does not ignore the tiny little details about the other person, notice them, compliment them, encourage and uphold them, be there for them. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]

Someone taking you for granted is that they use you for whatever you want but they don't appreciate it. [ lightoftruth's advice column | Ask lightoftruth A Question ]
