Re: does "just ignore it" work for most people?

(Anonymous) 2014-11-01 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I can sympathize with the wanting to win (and yeah, I do get some enjoyment out of making someone upset- or at least angry- sometimes. not proud of it, but it's like a mental exercise to strike).

"just ignore it" sometimes saves a lot of energy, and if you know they would prefer you to answer to find a way to hurt you, I think it'll annoy THEM more if you don't.

on the other hand, if you care about that person, and want to give them the benefit of the doubt- if it's really more about both your egos- then sometimes answering can stop the fight. Giving them the chance to be sensible, or breaking the tone by making a joke, actually sometimes conciliates people. Because they really just wanted some respect or attention. Especially for children or people who feel frustrated at being swept away by anger/ignored/talked down to/humiliated by being wrong.
