[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You DID attack them. [/quote] Yes, but only after being provoked repeatedly. But any way, what should I do now? I’m still not exactly happy with this person for the things they said. [/quote] Nothing. You now know what they're like and liable to say. Next time they say something provocative, you shrug and give back nonsensical answers or pretend to agree or just say, hmm. I had to learn to do this with some family members. What worked for me was realizing that I don't have to share my opinion to have it. I can be silent about it because I'm not trying to be close to them nor do I care about convincing them of anything--it's just an obligation and their opinions don't change me. If it were a friend, I'd probably end the friendship. People who do this on purpose--and some do--are obnoxious. I don't care if they really have good intentions either ("I didn't mean it that way," etc. I question that anyway.)[/quote]
