A nice person knows how to be kind while also setting appropriate boundaries.Dragonflower says,
Perfect answer, lillybrook.I do want to add something I discovered, which confused me at first when I learned to set boundaries. Some people, who are counting on you to be a pushover, won't appreciate the niceness/kindness. They may even call you not very nice things. So strength is an important aspect of being nice so you don't get pushed over again.

Thanks Autumn22 and lilybrook. I've been called a pushover before but I thought I was being nice so I didn't quite know what to think. Guess I'll just have to work on making my boundaries clearer. :)
