I just don't want to sink to their level of being a bully.

If they didn't makes me mad, sure.

i "try" to be. but i admit i can lose patience easily

well, sometimes

This is where having had a lot of life experiences that made you wait and wait and wait, while others walked all over you... factors in. I try not to dish out what nastiness I have received from others.

Yes, I do lose it after repeated accusations and consistent yelling at me... This is why King Triton's behavior makes me so upset, because it's abusive. But my first inclination is not to respond with anger, because that's like adding water to the fire. Water just causes the fire to spread some more.

I will add though, that I do harbor resentment on occasion. This is not good for me. I have to keep repeating that I have forgiven so-and-so, until my brain believes it, too.

I get angry sometimes but I always try to be kind and understanding.

I try not to talk with them so I haven't got to be rude or nice. That's the easiest way.

Always.

If someone I don't like says hi to me I say hi back just to be polite, that's pretty much it.

I try not to dislike people at all.

@MalloMar That is a good way to be!

Yes unless they are abusive or unrepentant, then there's no point and I just avoid.

Complicated question for me to answer. I try to be tolerant of others, but it seems no matter how nice I am, they always act like assholes. Whether if it's in real life or on Fanpop or any other site, no matter how nice I try to be, even praying for people I don't like to get through problems they're going through, they act like assholes to me. Makes me feel like I should just stop caring and stop being so nice because it gets me nowhere. But I will continue to be the better person. However, if someone I don't like acts like an ass to me, I'm going to say something back.

I always acted unfrliendly towards my bullies both at school and in university. I didn't entirely forgive any of my bullies.
I also hate overly cynical and overly uncompassionate ones who mock the concept of human rights and I believe I owe them nothing.
