Do hurt people hurt people more than they hurt themselves?
We get to be careful as we teach people how to treat us — no matter how much a person is hurting, we deserve to be loved in a way that feels good. Hurt people hurt people, however they hurt themselves more. We don’t need to feel hurt in the process as they take themselves down.
What do you do when someone is being spiteful towards you?
If someone you know is being spiteful towards you, you do not have to tolerate the behavior. Start by addressing the misuse. Talk to the person about how their behavior makes you feel. From there, set clear boundaries. Let the person know what behaviors are and are not acceptable.
What do you say to someone who has hurt you?
Unless you have hurt the person in some way, know that they are acting from a place of pain and a yearning desire for love. Hurting people often don’t love themselves enough so they look for love and approval from others. We can always offer love to them — either in close proximity or from further away.
What do you do when someone won’t back down?
Be the bigger person when someone will not back down. Even if you’re respectful when you address the situation, a spiteful person may not back down. If the other person remains hostile or negative, you need to be the bigger person. Do not resort to any negative tactics the person uses, such as yelling or name calling.
