How people see you
25 Answers
Do you believe in confrontation or softly-softly in difficult situations?
I know that's a bit heavy for so early in the morning, but are you really like what people see you as?
I hope that makes sense.

LOL...I easy going most of the time........but I refuse to be rode over like a "coach and four" by some irritating confrontational individual
It is difficult on AB as giving someone a dose of what they deserve may result in a suspension........but in my personal,opinion, worth every second of that suspension.
Does that help?

I tend to use a lateral approach in problem situations, but have a reputation for being a straight talker who takes no prisoners, although sometimes I'm shaking in my boots.
I confronted a dealer the other day over his treatment of his dog. He took it, but later I thought I could have had a knife in my guts (can I say that word)?

definalty softly softly, having worked in an environment where people are constantly hostile towards you I found its better to try and empathise and diffuse the situation rather than be confrontational.
although a simple smile can sometimes make the situation worse and enrage people further (this also applies to laughing out loud)

I believe that each person has two "selves",,,first we have our real self, which no one can possibly ever totally know and which is constant...then the self which we allow others to see...this varies with our mood and the person we are dealing with.....We project an image that we want them to have of us....
For example you might see someone you don't particularly like and say to yourself ..."Gawd,hope she doesn't see me."..but she does and you say to her..."hey, long time no see, how nice to have bumped into you."......the real you and the outer self!

Hi Anne,
I'm as laid back as you can get without falling over, and always look at situations arising calmly, with an even head, a cup of coffee and how to best deal with it. I dont like confrontation too much but have on occasion with pushy sales people in particular, or customer services depts of some retailers who dont have the first clue at what customer satisfaction is all about.
So I tend use the softly- softly approach in most circumstances and a bit of the yogi charm......seems to work oddly...maybe it's my eyes or smile....who knows?......as long as it works...happy days! lol :0)

It depends on the situation and the person. I tend to be softly softly with my eldest daughter (she has mental health issues) and saying the wrong thing can cause problems. My younger daughter and my son are like me and they prefer fairly blunt honesty.
With people in other situations I tend to tell it like it is but in a generally polite manner (unless they pi$$ me off or are particularly stupid).

I know people see me as the nice, quiet, soft unconfrotational (if that is a word) but when something really riles me then I am off,It takes a lot and I mean a lot to get me going because I do not like any sort of confrontation, any thing for an easy life thats me and everyone knows this,or so they think because when I do get my hackles up BEWARE,because I can OUT TALK and OUT BEAT anyone.I'm not proud of this but I will not be walked over.Other than this I am a very nice and cheery person.Do you think I am awful admitting this?
