Is it possible to give too much?

Hi everyone. From my experience with relationships in general you don't want to deplete yourself. If you're sacrificing yourself then you're giving too much in my opinion. I find that balance is extremely important. You can only really take care of your relationships if you take care of yourself.
What do you think?

Taking care of yourself is taking care of your relationship and all
those around you...the classic ripple effect. :)

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

Correct, only give what you can spare. This is my understanding, in order, not to deplete yourself. One can become very ill over time.

Definitely but I believe until someone understand that your actual giving, if they really arrogant then maybe you should consider your relationship with them but if there are signs they are giving also I wouldn’t stop it’s just matter of self worth and them understanding-

Completely depends on context and what your goals are.
