How to Deal With Rude People ^_^

Many times in your life you will meet mean or rude people that you dislike, but you'll still have to pretend to like them anyway. This article will teach you all about how to politely deal with rude individuals whose company you couldn't care less for.

 Approach the situation with a rude person calmly by attempting to understand their perspective first. Note that just because you may understand another person's motivations, it does not mean that their behavior is justified.

• People who are rude a couple of times and seem to be acting out of character may be upset at something else in their life, and simply taking their frustration out on you for no reason. Although that individual should know better than to let their emotions get the best of them, we all have our moments of irrationality. It's a very human quality.
• This most commonly occurs with strangers, who don't expect to see you again and probably don't care about what you think of them. They don't bother to consider your feelings, especially if they're already emotionally bogged down by something else in their lives.
• Other times, you'll get into situations (e.g., at work or school) in which people are persistently rude to you. They may have some prejudice about your gender, race, occupation, etc. or may be judging you for something else that you've done. These people are usually obstinate in their views, however false they may be, and there is little point in trying to disprove their biases.

 

 When the person in question does something rude or offensive to you, politely but firmly call them out on their inappropriate behavior. Look at the them in the eye and ask them to please stop provoking you.

• Good phrases to use are: "Please stop, I don't appreciate your behavior" or "There's no need for such aggressiveness/rudeness/insulting comments/etc here."
• Try to be calm and collected. Don't be aggressive or lose your temper, as that will only escalate the situation. Don't try to refute what the person said or engage in their conversation -- recognize that they're crazy and all you're trying to do is to limit their annoying behavior towards you.
• Don't engage them in any sort of fight or argument, physical or otherwise. That will also only worsen the situation, and the last thing you need is an arrest warrant for assault and battery. Remember that you don't need to prove yourself to them.

 

   

If you think that the rudeness is based on a resolvable misunderstanding, you can extend the confrontation by asking them why they are behaving this way. If they give a rational response that you can address, go for it. If you can resolve the tension, that's the best possible scenario. At the same time, you may just unleash a flurry of angry nonsense that fails to justify their actions. At that point, recognize you've done all you can and proceed with the next step.

• Some people genuinely don't realize they're being rude. They may not have learned certain social skills. In case you have encountered someone like this, you may want to politely inform that they have been rude. You'll generally get an apology straight away. If not, it may just take patience or avoidance.

Limit contact with this rude person as much as possible. If it's not inconvenient for you to switch offices or make some other change to avoid running into this person, take that step. You shouldn't let one person dictate your life or make huge sacrifices for them, but it will definitely help to not have them in your presence. Out of sight, out of mind.

Limit the people with whom you share these confrontations with to your closest friends. You don't want to tell any mutual friends or anyone who may disclose what you've said about them to the rude person. You may even accidentally offend someone who is friends with the rude person. No one likes knowing that they are being spoken about behind their back, and your gossiping would only give them a legitimate reason to act rude towards you in person as well as retaliate with gossip of their own. Do not create more fuel to worsen the situation.

• Even when you talk about the situation to your friends, avoid exaggerating past the actual circumstances to turn the rude person into an evil caricature. You are understandably upset about the situation, but that also doesn't justify saying things that are untrue and potentially damaging to a person, and mean-spirited words like that can end up causing more unintentional harm in the future.
• Instead, describe what happened, what rude action(s) the person said to you, and your reactions to them. Let your friends chime in with their reactions. Talk about the situation for emotional catharsis -- you want to let such an emotionally strenuous event off your back -- but then move on to something else.

Don't over think the situation. After you've confronted someone about their behavior and things haven't improved, you need to draw a line to accept that you've done as much as you possibly could to improve relations with them. There's no more thought that you need to give to the situation. Don't over analyze your behavior or theirs, your history of interactions, etc. Move on with your life and restore your sanity by banishing this rude person from your thoughts. Someone who is so hurtful towards you does not deserve any more of your energy.
