I will touch on the one thing, I don't believe anyone has. This can definately
be low self esteem. It can also be that she feels so inadequate that she
feels that being asked to do these things is a honor. That it shows she is
a needed, wanted person in peoples lives.

I think one of the things you need to do, to help her. Is to help her find ways to be needed and wanted. That are not dangerous to her. Make sure
she has a way to build a good self esteem.

I can totally relate to your friend. I have a low self esteem. And have I'm sure done things to please others just so they like me.

I also know that I have allowed people to walk all over me, (Husband)
See I have had to learn to stand up for me, and what is right.
