As you know, I don't post very often on social media anymore. But if you're not following me on Instagram, make sure you go ahead and do that. I did make a post a few weeks ago on my Instagram story about emotional maturity. and how to deal with people that, for lack of a better term, get you all wound up.
What specific phrases can help when dealing with passive-aggressive behavior?
They get you angry or hurt or they just create angst in your life. You probably have somebody like that in your life. They push your buttons and maybe that person is very close to you, maybe really close to you. And so we're going to talk about that today. You know, life is supposed to be a joyous experience, at least most of the time. And you got to really evaluate your emotional maturity and how you deal with people that are emotionally immature, which I believe is a sign of weakness in people, hurt people, angry people. And we're going to talk about this today. Let me ask you a question. If you and I met or you met the person in your life who you wanted to spend the rest of your life with, let's just say, but they said, well, here's the thing.
We got to live in my house. And you go, okay, all right. They say, well, let me just tell you about my house. My house, regularly there's snakes all over it. You got to avoid them. There's a fire that pops up in a room randomly every couple of weeks. So there's fire in this house all the time. It rains in there. It gets really hot some days and other days it gets freezing cold. Sometimes it feels like you're in an earthquake. The whole house is shaking. You think it's going to come down all around you. Then there's other times in this house where it's like a tornado blows through it. You don't know where it came from, but it just hits the house and wrecks it. And we're going to live in that house the rest of our lives.
So I know you love me, but you need to know the house we're going to live in. And it gets worse than that. From time to time, you don't even know what's going on. You can't read it at all. There's no detection. And out of the blue, another storm hits, another fire hits, another snake pops up.
Why is communication considered an underrated skill?
Then you walk into the wrong room and there's lions and tigers and bears that just attack you. And so it's coming from all angles a lot of the time. Would you rethink that relationship or whether you wanted to live in that house? Maybe you love the person, but you said, the house part, that part I'm not buying into. Maybe it wasn't even a significant other. It was just a great friend who said, when you come visit me, you won't know when, but when you come to my house, this is what takes place there.
