I like to be nice as possible.

Direct and to the point so there's No misunderstanding.

kind but fast, because kind but dragging it out is cruel again!

I try to be polite and the more pressure they put on me after that the ruder I become.

as gentlemanly as possible, even if theyre toads towards me

I’d say I start nice… but I can turn a little cutthroat if the moment calls for it. Keeps things interesting, doesn’t it?

That is situational. Yet I never block anyone.

Entirely depends on them

I try to be nice and get to know the person.

I usually cut them out when I can see
1) A Scamster 2) Person with negative vibes 3) Manipulative person 4) Liars & Cheaters 5) Disloyalty

Brutal mostly

Depends

I still greet them, but no more stopping for a quick chat.

Reject them how? In what context?

Depends

You can say something kindly but at the same time genuinely and honestly without hurting feelings, yet you get your point across. Then walk away. No need to further explain yourself. Your boundaries are your own and they deserve to be heard.

I guess it depends on how far they push it. If they accept “No, thanks,” I see no benefit in shredding them.

Some people are so deaf they can’t hear “No.” in those cases I may explain why it’s no.

There is a middle ground. Polite but firm. Then aggressivly no.

It depends on the situation

just a strong firm NO...nothing more, no wishy-washy maaaaaybe, no reasoning, no excuses. just NO

I've had a wide spectrum of reactions from "no thank you" to getting a restraining order

Ahh, just a laugh to my comment? I was expecting at least a little trouble from you 😌

Don’t tell me you’re all charm and no bite. I might have to test that theory :D

😎

Well, if they were nasty, I hit him where it hurts. And if they’re nice, I have no reason to reject them.
