good day fellow mylotters, i really can't explain why some people cannot rephrase the words they want to say to their fellow. as a result, words that are being thrown out and said causes some misunderstanding. just like the situation that i am always encountering. often times, i am thinking, what if, i will apply this line, "i will let them drink the dose of their own medicine". thus, if i will going to apply that line, then, maybe they will realize that the words they have said was rude.

hello aira, It partly works but not completely. Some people are too insensitive no matter how you want them to understand. The best thing to do is ignore those people, as in totally ignore. If you see them, ignore them, if they are talking to you don't listen,...by doing so they will feel how rude you are and they will realize what they are doing...(hopefully)

That wont work out. Many will not understand and even believe that they were rude. And still remain what they are. And again, they may say goodbye to you. I have faced this kind of things and even seen people walk out. Doesnt matter in the lomg run but at that moment when they do walk out, you might be hurt. Better way to do it - in my opinion - go ahead and tell them they were rude. Simple. and meaningful + more direct and understandable. Play with words, and chances are you will be more misinterpreted than anything else
