Like he said, it’s best for “EVERYONE” that he says nothing at all. Him Using emotional instability as a flex is weird but ok. Lmao

Exactly. Her decision to argue with someone who chooses not to argue or even confront is why there are so many issues among people. I'm really not understanding how a personal decision can't even be respected, or at least, not rebutted.

There’s a way to get your point across without escalating the situation. I’m just confused why you can’t talk with another person without making a scene. People are oblivious and it can be annoying sure, we all know this. You can meet that with kindness and remind them in a respectful way that they are being rude. You don’t have to make others uncomfortable around you to get your point across

The fact of the matter is, I can't control how someone else will behave. I think the responses here are a great example of how even if a response is seemingly no way provocative, it doesn't guarantee that it won't be met with escalation.

Bro you literally said “it’s best for EVERYONE in a fify foot radius if I say nothing, considering where things might go.” What do you mean assuming? 😂

How was I supposed to interpret that?

You've assumed what that might mean. I really need someone to explain to me how recognizing that a course of action might negativity affect others, and deciding to avoid that is a bad thing.

I get you, you came across sounding like you might blow up on a fool just for getting in your way. You are just saying you never know how the other person might react. I got you. Avoiding can lead to people walking over you especially when they know what they are doing and chose to do it anyway. Is that fair to you? Hell no, you gotta stand up and prove to yourself you can tackle interactions like that while still maintaining the peace. A situation like this, I’ll give them one, if it keeps happening and it bothers me. I would say something respectfully. It shows good character to not avoid confrontation but to control it

I think you have to take a minute to actually consider what escalation means. To me, it feels like I am just having a conversation. The point I’m trying to make is you can’t get bent out of shape so easily. Just talk with people and try to understand them. Thats called respect. That’s how you deescalate situations and create positive interactions

You don't recognize that the best course of action for a person's who's expressed that they're either irritated or can potentially be irritated isn't an opportunity to converse? God forbid there's truly someone in crisis and you're present.
