Hello.

I am by nature a mild person; I don’t want any trouble with anyone. I live in a wonderful community where most folks are happy and content………..but there always seems to be a few that want to show off in front of their friends and act like they are somehow superior to everyone else.
This morning I walked down to get an 18 pack of beer and my father’s lottery ticket for the evening as I do every day since my car was disabled by transmission problems - the repairs will cost a couple thousand dollars that we simply don’t have at present. On my walk home, a woman walking with another lady and pushing a baby stroller started making disperaging comments about me as she walked up on me and laughing at me - why would someone do that; I still don’t understand. I cussed her out, and she continued to be verbally abusive and laughing at me - I found myself in a place I don’t like to think about - “Apt to become emotional and resort to violence” I believe is the term that I heard during my military service - what am I supposed to do? Please someone - what am I supposed to do? I’m under so much stress that something like this could be the trigger that sets off an incident that no one would want to see. What can I do to relieve the anger I’m feeling?

why are you feeling angry? one day you’ll have the money to fix your car, at least you have money for the essentials, and you’ll get get that extra exercise. And who cares about what random housewives are saying about you???? From my experience they are one of the most ignorant groups of people there are, and anyway they seem to hate anyone that doesn’t meet there criteria (the beer you were carrying might have something to do with it). Cussing at those kind of people or any other types of people doesn’t usually help. When a random stranger starts to say weird and mean stuff to you the best approach i find is just to ignore them. your not very likely to see them again anyways so there is no need to make a good impression on them. When you feel getting angry at something like that again just take a deep breath and get on with your life. There is no need to get angry most of the time.

physical exercises is a good way to let out the steam. My mum does the cleaning if she’s angry: it dissolves the anger and everything’s done in the house :D

What other people think about you doesn’t matter…the way you feel about yourself is the trigger to your anger. If you had a good self concept you would feel sorry for people like the woman who made crude remarks…because she is obviously a *****. You have to discover yourself and your good points so those people won’t affect you. When you display anger…cussing and showing a side that was not pretty, you are only proving to her that her concept of you was correct. You let those people win when you give them what they want…instead…deprive them by smiling as you walk by. Worse…wish them a good day…it will totally blow their minds.
