Rude, critical, argumentative people probably have a personality disorder. Unless they get professional help and even if the do, they probably always will be that way. The best thing you can do is distance yourself from them. ~ Linda Bradish
Don’t feed the fire and you won’t get burned.
Leave the negativity with them, that’s what makes them happy.
I worked hard on having a positive relation with someone, but now is the time I realize I have had enough. The person will never appreciate your effort and it is better to part your ways. ~ Sakshi Gupta
You don’t have to attend every argument you’re invited to.
When someone is rude, give them a wide smile. That is better than distancing yourself. Try not taking it personally.
Rude, critical, and argumentative people usually have some sort of issue. They may not even realize how they sound to others. Professional counseling can help if the person is willing to listen. The problem is they may not be willing. I keep my distance from people like this that are just too confrontational. It’s a no win! ~ Suzy Cusumano
