Have you ever wondered why people do things to get under your skin? I use to but now I know why. Some people get joy out of making you react. They actually are not happy with themselves so they feel they need to make others feel the same way. Many like to get under your skin to take away the joy you have. Sad, but true! Some just love drama. So don't react!
Don't let people get under your skin, no matter how hard they try and trust me they will try. Ignore, laugh and be at peace with yourself. No reaction and silence is the best way to react. Soon they will get the message that they cannot get under your skin and they will stop. Have you ever been happy and at peace and no longer with someone and the person knows this and out of no where, they will bring up your ex? Ones reaction is what? No reaction..do not react!! Trust me they wanted to see how you would react. So don't simply change the subject because if your at peace and happy of course they will try to get under your skin. But if they only knew that your ex is your ex for a reason!! LOL
Ask yourself: What are they doing for you? Probably nothing...so don't let them get under your skin you get under theirs by having no reaction. Walk away and free yourself from negative people who they themselves are not happy and love drama. The saying is true: Misery loves company! Free yourself and be at peace with yourself!
People do things to get under your skin because they are miserable in their own lives and misery always loves company. Don't ever let any body steal your joy. They do not deserve the satisfaction. They would love nothing more than to see you cringe. Do not allow them to reach such a negative goal. Stay in a positive zone and also know when someone is trying to get under your skin. If you have a sense of that you can handle it better and not get emotionally involved.
I know I have trouble biting my tongue... Do you have any suggestions of what I can say to someone if they are pushing for a reaction?
ReplyDeleteI would ask them a question about their personal life. Sometimes people like to get into your personal life into your skin but when you give it back them..they kind of change the whole subject. It works. You can also say, sorry I am trying to be at peace and do not feel like talking right now.
ReplyDeleteGood answer! I'll have to try that!
