You might have to brook their anger and have to rinse and repeat or read em the riot act and say enuff.....that might entail not caring how its taken

@bookerdana I have had her anger leveled at me before and it's very unreasonable and mean spirited
bookerdana · M
@Justmeraeagain i get that,she's using emotional blackmail,.....and that its very hard to bear but what happens if you let her know all she has to do is threaten mean spirited tantrums to get what she wants?
Its a tough situation

@bookerdana she's not going to see any kind of reason, this last time I decided to tell her that I was going to talk it over with her parents ,because she is dependent on them like a small child.
I don't believe she's getting any kind of parental imput for these impulsive messages she sends me and I'm hoping that if she knows I am willing to talk to her parents about it that she'll eventually stop.

@Justmeraeagain gotta try to out think her👍
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Virgo79 it's very hard to do when you don't think in same manipulative terms... Perhaps I should just think she's always being manipulative because she probably is

@Justmeraeagain i believe thats the case, you'll have to start adding something for you in the mix
Start small and grow from there🙂

{@justmeraeagain] if it is unreasonable and you feel you are being taken for a fool you are perfectly entitled to say no . you are no way being difficult or awkward and explained too them diplomatically your reason

It’s their problem not yours so don’t get upset. People like that are manipulative and a real shit for acting like that when they don’t get their way
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Jenny1234 you are right of course, I've decided to route her and talk to her parents.
BizSuitStacy · M
Sure. Mostly at work. And a few times for family members.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@BizSuitStacy it's like,why would you even think that's reasonable ?
BizSuitStacy · M
@Justmeraeagain Some don't care, and it doesn't even dawn on the others.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@BizSuitStacy I'm not sure but I think it's a combination of both for this one
MasterLee · 56-60, M
No. It doesn't need a tone.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@MasterLee ?
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Justmeraeagain no means no
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@MasterLee I know that and you know that but this person is not reasonable.
I don't want to go into too many details but I can't cut this person totally out of my life and yeah I can keep saying no to her unreasonable request and I will ,but I never know when she's going to spring them on me or what she is going to do when I say no to her.

dakotaviper · 56-60, M
Yep. It happens often of here and at work.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@dakotaviper no fun that

My Mother 😐

@SW-User That be hard
bijouxbroussard · F
Yes ! My youngest sister. One of the biggest arguments we had was when my niece was confirmed. Sis thought that, since I’m no longer religious, I should give her daughter my confirmation medal. I gave my niece a confirmation gift. But I’m not my niece’s godmother, and my medal was a gift from our late aunt. I will always value it for that reason, if for no other. So, I told my sister to go take a flying leap. 😤
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@bijouxbroussard Yeah, I need to be more upfront.
No matter how many weird requests this person makes it always kind of hits me between the eyes.
It's not on a continually basis it's just out of the blue all of a sudden and I go blank

I always say that I'm busy, which I am.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@uncalled4 I'm going to have to be real straightforward and just start saying no this isn't a reasonable request because I don't think she gets it any other way or maybe she's just pretending not to get it
