    maybe it wouldve been better if you were more polite about it like kindly asking him to leave. if he doesnt and is rude to you back do that.

    Totally understandable how frustrating it is to have someone do this. I think for next time, if this does happen again and if you feel safe and comfortable let the person know how loud and disruptive they’re being and ask them to leave or quiet down. Overall just being very calm but firm about how you feel will usually get someone to stop, sometimes they may not be fully aware of how they maybe causing issues.

    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸

    Hi @ellie2000
    sorry to hear about this, as I understand how frustrating this must have been. I also understand in these situations it is easy to be reactive and respond immediately, but sometimes I think you need to take a step back and consider your options.

    wdym? is it when you treat others the way you wanna be treated so you get back at them when theyre being rude?

    if youve had trauma its common in people to be rude to others, dont worry.
