Screw excusing bad behaviour

posted May 5th, 2023 at 3:18 AM

I'm a nice person, and I like talking with people. I am interested in knowing about them and hearing their opinions. I also take ownership for being responsible if I've ever done something to be offensive, especially when the tone suddenly changes inexplicably because, sometimes, we aren't aware of the power of our words and actions. But sometimes I'm too kind, making excuses for the deliberate rudeness of others. Sometimes, people are just mercurial and, on the right day, reveal their blatant awfulness and poor attitude. I caught myself trying to give such a person the benefit of the doubt, but why should I when they don't deserve it? Forget that. If they feel so empowered to be rude, they can expect that forgiving nature out the window as I call them out on their garbage attitude. No need to make people like these welcome as they pollute my home turf, I'm done giving them a pass when they're supposed to be old enough to know better.

When we stop masturbating our empty limp noodle of “niceness” and start kindly but firmly saying what we mean.

I stopped

Enabling bad behavior years ago and don't miss those people I ghosted years ago.
Thankfully they haven't tried to get in touch as I would just laugh at them uncontrollably

I’m wondering if perhaps you have some sort of relation to that person. If yes, in what capacity? Could it be a blood relative, a best friend, a roommate, or a coworker?

Cannot change their spots. Once an ass, always an ass. Just call them out, let them have it and then go your separate ways. you certainly do not need validation from anyone. Only you can live your life for you and nobody else. Life does go on.

Please forgive me and take my word that I was not trying to offend you!

I disagree. If someone is able to genuinely look at their own behaviour, and if they genuinely want to change, they absolutely can change. People do it all the time because we’re not leopards, we’re human beings capable of higher thinking. Unless that person is a sociopath, they can change.

I'm so sorry your this mad.

I've had to cut stupid people completely out of my life and don't miss anything about them. One of them tried to win me over, but I told him to get lost. Never heard back from that person since.
