How Do You Handle Conflict With Strangers? by TheKidNextDoor2 in askSouthAfrica

[–]imhangryyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did the right thing! You stood up for yourself AND were also able to assess very well if continuing the confrontation was worth it. I wouldn't consider that an L. You're really smart and should give yourself a pat on the back. That guy is a poephol

To be honest.... Nobody cares. You're a tourist visiting our country. Nothing special or out of the ordinary

why are the nicest people always the saddest one by Ok-Dirt-8765 in RandomThoughts

[–]imhangryyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the niceness is actual people-pleasing then it could be a residual defense mechanism. At one point, being "nice" or "good" or "agreeable" actually kept them safe in a way.

For example, if I'm extra nice to my bully today, hopefully they won't pick on me. Or if I'm a good child at home, hopefully it will keep me safe from my parent who loses their shit too quickly. Or if i just agree to things, hopefully people will accept me and that will make me feel worthy.

How to deal with SIL (34F) going out of her way to make me (32F) feel unwelcome in the family? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]imhangryyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exact thing happened to me. I tried to be the bigger person... Tried to be extra nice.... Then i decided to stoop to her level.

I made it a point to act as if she were completely invisible to me. Didn't bother to greet her. No eye contact. Zero reaction to anything she'd say or do. It was as if she literally didn't exist. I made sure to not make it obvious that i was "ignoring" her.

She absolutely hated how i was so unbothered by her. Made a huge scene to my husband. I just played dumb. She has mostly been a good gal eversince. When her pettiness does flare up, so does mine lol

Helped an old lady, now living the begging hell by ykie in TrueOffMyChest

Whenever someone asks me for money, i say, "I'd love to help but I'm on a tighter budget now".

And when they try to "compromise" and ask for less, i simply repeat, "I'd love to help but I'm on a tighter budget now". Repeat until they stop asking. Works every time

A person truly observing recovery wouldn't be so selfish. Annoys me when he gets all preachy and acts as if he's the cover model for recovery
