They are not worth your time.
They only continue their passive aggressive behavior because it has worked in the past. Spend your time with less poorly mannered people until they learn not to act like children. It will be better for you both.

They're quite childish. There's a guy at my work like that, he gets so mad when people talk down about the NHL, as if he owns it or something.

Petty and after that I just dont give them the time of day.

they are sulky and stupid.....
by plocrates on August 15th, 2009
In mature. They have not developed from childhood, I say let them sulk. But maybe they just need a hug now and then, children do.

Let them sit on their pity pot and celebrate their big disappointment all alone, I have things to do.

It's a waste of time. Every moment that you spend unhappy or upset when you could be enjoying life are minutes that you can never get back. +4

by Ray Del Sol on November 17th, 2009
good riddens. let them sulk all they want, need to grow up and learn assertive communication.
by Reptar on November 17th, 2009
I think it's immature, and if I'm feeling the least bit snarky I let them know it.

Its called "going off by oneself and eating worms". When I do it, I appreciate being told so I can change my behaviour.

I think they are twats.
by Wynper on July 30th, 2009
I think generally they are petty and ignorant people. Sometimes it is important to find out why they are sulking and quiet. It is possible some part of the disagreement touched a deeper note in them.
We don't always realize the impact of what we say on others. Remember each person filters conversations through their own experience.
I think if the sulker in question is important to me I would follow up and attempt to discover why they are sulking and what can be done about it.
by Factotum on July 30th, 2009
It's annoying and I have to remind myself that I wouldn't really want to talk to them when they're like that anyway.
by YoungBlood on July 30th, 2009
I think we call that IGNORANCE, don't we?

Their loss.
The other person can tell their side of the story without anyone contradicting them
by Merriment on November 17th, 2009
I think they are passive aggressive.
Did he or she tell you that they loved you before, during, or after sex?

Is it better to dress to please your partner (if you have one) and yourself or just yourself? Why?

Difficult when its your Bitter( Not a typo) half.
by Moley the contrary female dragon on July 30th, 2009
Definitely.
Married? If not, this is a negative characteristic that will be hard to deal with in the future.
If so, get a hobby or three. Your significant other shouldn't be holding your happiness hostage. They only have this power if your life surrounds them. If you have places to go and things to do every time they act like a child, they will come around sooner rather than later.
The trick is to not do this in a passive aggressive way yourself. Don't think "fine! you want to be a jerk? Im leaving!" If you think this way, you will tend to hold some residual anger after they knock the behavior off. Think to yourself "someone's in a mood again.. good thing I have tons of fun stuff to go do... if they are acting better later, then we can spend time together again."
this will initially cause them to try to turn up the act, but when they see it isnt working, they will knock it off.... hopefully.

I just decided to stop playing the game.Must say its a relief. I do have lots of fun stuff and lots of friends. Horse takes up lots of time.I just feel its sad for him. He stopped speaking to his twin sister. I go visit her anyway. I didnt have a row with her.He needs to sort that one out himself, not my problem. Not getting involved.
by Moley the contrary female dragon on July 30th, 2009
Good idea. Babies cry because they get the bottle. He does this because it has worked in the past. If it stops working, he will either amend his behavior or cut you out of his life. Either one is far better than having your quality of life held hostage by an emotionally controlling douche...
