[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 743813, member: 4152"] I see your point. I too liked what Lil said. Often my husband does this, and guess what? He is a very happy fella! Lol. He thinks of them a little more like “clueless.” I was thinking today maybe some problematic /weak social skills. What seems rude or impolite Could be lack of knowledge or something along those lines. I think we get hurt when we feel someone might be purposefully unkind to us. But “assuming,” is almost always bad bad bad. Same with personalizing. Hubby does not take it so far...so Pollyanna to say it’s nothing at all. He definitely sees it and at time feels it. But, he quickly dismisseS it. He sees them , like I said, as having a problem of some sort. An unknown problem. Too numerous a field to pinpoint. And it is unlikely that things were done purposefully, so best not to “go there.” I tell ya the guy is happy. I do like to talk it out a bit. But, it seems we tend to come around to this. If I have to interact with these folks, unless I have concrete evidence if purposeful bad behaviors, I guess I can look at it has healthier to think of them as having “some sort of unknown issue and not knowing any better.” And of course if it gets tooooo difficult to interact with them, pull back or do things differently.
