Why, as a matter of fact, yes. Especially when most people do not consider it "abuse". You will find, as you gain more experience in the world, that being nice to people generally gets you further ahead, in the long run, and the golden rule generally applies. Don't confuse non-assertiveness with being nice, of course.
