Are you passive aggresive?


Question:
Do you hate yourself for it? How do you go about being more aggresive without crossing the line?

Answers:
Yes, I am. I rely on my sarcasm to vent my anger and keep me from blowing my top. I have found that i does help me, but I hate that I am not strong enough to voice my anger when I'm angry. Instead, I just take it and make those comments. This is why I am getting divorced - my ex-wife walked all over me and then got upset because I never stood up for myself.

Passive/Aggressive behavior is not bad, in and of itself. I just lack the capacity to properly balance my P/A-ness with assertiveness... But I am working on it.

Other Answers:
yes, and no, i don't hate myself for it. i've learned that being aggressive is not a necessity. i'm a conflict avoider from 'way back, but there is a time to take a stance. assertiveness would a better avenue to follow, and would help you not cross that line. best of luck!!
