When someone offends you, will you outright tell them "Dude, you offended me" or will you go on like nothing ever happened, silently stewing on it?

If it's a friend there's no reservations If it's family, no reservations(i'll go crazy for sure) If it's at work it's a 3 strike and you're out policy
-
Depends on the person I guess. Most times I will make noise about it, but some people you can tell are not worth the effort. Especially the ones just trying to bait you into a fight.
-
I actually confront people who offend me otherwise I couldnt be around them. Usually when I confront the situation the apologize or we talk through it and 9 out of 10 times it gets solved on the spot.
-
I tend to bottle it up, smile politely and move on. It's not healthy, I know, but it's just the way I've been brought up: Everything is always fine, deal with it when noone's around.
-
If you piss me off, you'll know it. If I think you are a reasonable person I will tell you in a clear and concise manner that you are an idiot. If I come to the realization that talking to you would be as productive as nailing jello to a tree, I will just kick you and walk away.
-
As unhealthy as it may be, I hate confrontation and I tend to keep things inside. But a whole of the time, it's really not that big of a deal anyway and I can just get over it. If they were being mean intentionally, though, I would stand up for myself.
-
i would make a witty and funny comment about and smile, if he keeps doing it, ill say it nicely to back off once then ill get nasty...
-
Most of the time I don't say anything right away, but I wait until I am calm before bringing up the concern. Sometimes I just let it pass, but I try not to let it stew inside, I just work on forgetting about it.
-
I don't remember the last time I got offended, but I think I'd keep it to myself. :)
-
I will tell them right then and there exactly what I think or feel. Unless it's my family.
-
i sit and stew, i cant stop thinking about it and i get so wound up when i see my fiance (poor guy) i let it all out! ( i dont yell at him- just complain and yell around him)
-
It depends on how deeply I was offended. If it was something little, I'd brush it off, but if someone were to say something offensive about my kids, they'd better look out.
-
I don't say "you offended me", but I make it clear that what they did or said is unacceptable.
-
I usually just ignore it. I don't stew on it or confront the person. Everyone is entitled to their thoughts and opinions, even the idiots in the world. Unfortunately too many of those idiots think I want to hear their opinions.
-
I tell them that they offended me.
-
well, i don't get offended easily. it takes quite a bit. if someone DOES manage to offend me, i don't care who they are, i tell them straight out. depending on how offended i am (or the nature of the comment they made) i am USUALLY polite, but have at times been quite rude about it. i really don't care; if they had it coming, they had it coming.
-
I'd just piss on them...
-
I will go pretend that nothing happened and stew on it. Unless that person is always doing it, when I will eventually explode at them. Then they are taken aback and I win the arguement. :)
-
It depends on the circumstances. Most of the time I will speak up though.
-
usually, i would just smile, or shake my head at the person, and walk away. you have to consider the source. some people just don't get it. the person usally look at me like i have a problem, but it's ok, beacuse i am good.
-
I tell them how much they offended me then I silently stew.
-
I hope I'm wise enough to tell the offender that he/she has pissed me off and apologizing would be in his/her best interest.
-
hello, i usually want to shoot my mouth off in their faces,i had something like this ccur recently, my mothers health care nurse got involved in my personal hygiene and is now ordering me to take a shower every two days!! id like to behead her im so freakin angry!
