Show them who the better person is, and the worst thing you can do (in my opinion) is react, it's what they want you to do.....
Easy to say, but hard sometimes to do....I sometimes take the bait....
But if you can hold out it makes you feel good....
THIS is where I usually sit. In-between these two trains of thought. Two wrongs don’t make a right. More tolerance and patience is needed. The best thing to do is NOT react.
I think the ‘key’ here is it depends who it is.
If this is someone who keeps taking you for granted knowing you don’t want any type of confrontation, then expect it to continue. This type of situation needs confrontation.
If you are online getting harassed, I think it’s best not to react.
By reacting you are feeding into the confrontation, making it worse. It’s not the easiest thing to learn but I need to.
Thank you Omah and Grey Fox. I won’t even call you old
Thanks everyone.
Your feedback was much appreciated
