Ditto. I didn’t come here to win anything. I came here to get out of playing the game.it’s a stupid game. It shouldn’t be a game.if anything that article confirms I made the right choice. If the bully of the playground is yelling how he’s won just cuz I went to a different park to play, he can have the playground. I don’t need that toxic shit in my life.
But yet they’ll throw stuff at the clerk if they take too long to ring them up or sneak in a tax at the register.
Or tossing out their PM at the drop of a hat.
Or someone trying to hijack a plane
Or drunks on the bus.
I think they are big on protesting. They don’t see it as whinging either. They see it as not putting up with shit.
I’m not a fan of avoidance technique off the bat as that just exacerbates disassociative disorders even worse. life isn’t a clean ‘no confrontation’ experience. That said, we don’t owe abusive people an audience.
If a person is doing something wrong and someone else is overreacting or maybe they are perfectly in their right to be yelling (if you killed their pet or something) then yeah, you can expect some fallout from this! You’re not a victim in a circumstance of ‘being yelled at’ when the bigger picture is you did something that really hurt a person to that degree that they are broken and cannot respond ‘appropriately’.
In circumstances where it’s just someone is being overreactive,yeah, Usually just stating “stop yelling” should be enough. If they keep at it, then definitely leave. That person is not owed an audience or a person to abuse.
