How do you show emotional and mental maturity when someone does something wrong to you?

Such as insulting you in public by yelling at you or mistreating you in public?

Calmly ask one question: “…did you take your meds today?”

Naw. I’m not sure I’m emotionally or mentally in that particular situation. Because the one time it happened to me I actually leaned into it instead of backing away, like most would do.

I stepped closer into them. Locked eyes. Raised my eyebrow and smirked.

Apparently it was enough to defuse the situation but I’m not sure if it was mature on any level. My give a fuck wasn’t present enough to care.
