Do you give people the opportunity to apologize for grievances you hold against them, that might or might not actually be as you initially viewed them

through angry eyes?

Or do you shut down, close up, and walk away, and never to speak to them again?

What is your way?

That’s hard to say. I really don’t hold many grudges. But, by the same token, I don’t give them control over my life either.

If there’s something bothering me, I’ll confront the situation/person immediately. I’m very calm, but I don’t hold back either.

@Adogslife Best way to be. I normally don't give that much control either. But it has happened.

@LadyBronte And the 2nd part of your statement applies as well. Sometimes you just have to walk away when situations are well beyond your tolerance.

If you can push my tolerance, that means I’m pretty much done anyway. There won’t be a Christmas card. 😂

@Adogslife I was happy until it all went to Hell in a handbasket. *shrug* Next time, if there is one which I doubt, I won't be foolish and repeat it.
