People don't understand the damage it can actually cause. You can love and care about someone without being a nag or pushy.

Psychologically healthy normals understand. It's about boundaries.

Sometimes people nag and are pushy to try to get you to do what they think is best for you. It is almost always because they care. It may not be the best way to go about things. Maybe try to take into consideration why they feel the way the do. Come to a sense of understanding and tell them nicely ( in a nice tone of voice with considerate choice of words) what they are doing to upset you and how it is making you feel. Then ask if maybe they could talk to you nicely about any issues they may have and give you time to work on it. It is very important not to do this when your are upset and you should get good results. Good luck.

Ppl who nag or expect other ppl to nag are insecure, they need constant attention.

 

Get into a relationship with someone like this at your own peril.

it can be; after all they've got the energy to nag and push.

its not to say it isn't more of an ego thing than helping you, as their top priority.
