if you have the great way to just walk away that is always the best thing to do but if you can't then tell them that you wish not talk to them till they can talk to you in a respectful way

I think the best is to walk away. Don't mind their business because it might turn into an argument and discussion. We don't want that.

Yeah. At work, there are a lot of rude people. They are trying to pull you down because they have their own miseries too. They want to transfer the frustration they feel to you.

I do agree with you it is always best to try to walk away but some times we can be trapped like at work then it is best to ask them to leave and talk to them latter in the day

Being nice to them can make them feel their conscience. It will take some time but they will become nice because you are nice to them.

DOn't be a doormat. I would ignore it as much as possible and if my brain is working sufficiently I would make one very well thought of statement and then move on.

On good days, I might just turn my back away from them. But if it happens when I am already pissed off, well, I maybe the quiet type of person, but they would surely hear from me! There is no excuse for a person to be rude to others. What could we do about it? Give him the taste of his own medicine!

I find it tiring and time consuming to be talking to a worthless person. So if he wants to be rude, then
I'd just allow to talk to himself.

Yeah. Sometimes you have to do that for them to realize. Most of the time though I would just remain quiet. Other times I will talk back.

oh of course its hard to deal with those kind of people,sometimes i just ignore them and think that they are lack of goo manner and attitude,ignoring them is to minimize the problem we can face when we only deal with them roughly,sometimes i can be rude too but when they speak over the belt or offensive.

Yeah. When they speak under the belt then you know it has gone too far. You
got to defend yourself.

I think you need to be humble always to make those people to your friend. We don't avoid that there are rude people within the community or in the neighborhood but dealing with them is not a big deal if you always show that you are being respected and not being an arrogant to them.

To treat rude people is to ignore them. Stay away from them. There many good friendly people around. Mix with good friendly people. Remember the proverb, " Birds of the same feathers flock together." So if you will to mix with rude people you may end up being labelled as rude. Remember!

For the most part, when it is possible for me to be able to ignore a rude person, that is exactly what I am going to do. The reason that I do this is because of the fact that sometimes people will really start to get on my nerves and I will end up doing something that I will regret later.
However, when it isn't possible for me ignore rude people, then I will just smile and nod so that I can get away from them as quickly as possible and move on with my life.

Thanks for commenting. Usually I just ignore them and they won't talk to you back because you are not good to talk to.

I care about my friends and if they are rude then I would tell them that they are rude. I want them to change for the better.

Well,this is something very tricky as this dealing with people.Most of the rude people are emotional.So one strategy is to be diplomatic with them.Even if they raise their voice, you be gentle so that they are diplomatically subdued to you.In case of some others, you need to be asking logical questions.Think of diplomacy and tactical questions.This would bring rude guys to some kind of submission.Plus ,you can establish your supremacy without using a strong word or raising voice.Another category of people are such that, they would speak all the time and depend on your reaction to proceed, if you do not react at all and remain clam and unaffected, they could stop the whole mess.They are sort of attention seekers.If you are in war mode, they too could be in fighting and rude mode.But then are some really bad and rude guys.In case, you are having a one on one confrontation with none to see, its nice to be a little lion.You can give a good fight.Some would become all fine and some would remain the same.But in case, there are people to watch, its better to remain gentleman.In this way, he would remain isolated and plus you maintain your dignity.Hope these things help.Thanks!

Many times in your life you will meet mean or
rude people that you dislike, but you'll still
have to pretend to like them anyway. This article
will teach you all about how to politely deal with
rude individuals whose company you couldn't care
less for. Don't take anything that this person says
seriously or personally. You have nothing to prove to them.
Don't do anything that may escalate the conflict.
It's better to walk away than to try to persuade them
otherwise or belittle them in retaliation.
Don't give them what they want by acting jealous.
If they keep bragging, just smile and say "That's nice."

I dont think there is anything you can do about them. However if people insult you, don't let it affect you negatively. If they speak the truth, value it and be grateful that someone is telling you something you can improve yourself with. If they are wrong, pity them for not being able to realize the true essence of how you perceive things to be, life is too short to feel bad, there are a ton more better things that you could invest your attention on

If people insult you, you should stand
up for yourself. Rude people have no place in
this world and it could turn against them.

The best way to deal with rude people is to ignore them and just walk away from them. Sometimes you can not walk away from them so just do your best to be nice to them and tell them to have a nice day. Being nice will make them madder and they will walk away from you!!!

Yeah. Being nice to them could them to be nice back to you also.

You have two choices, ignore or confront. If you just ignore them , they will eventually go away. But if you confront them in a polite way the rudest usually stops more quickly.

Both solutions work depending on the type of person.

Strangely i have experimented a few times by being extra polite when someone is being rude and at times it works when i notice the rudeness turned down anothch or two but if i feel it is not working , then i subtly show my annoyance with the rude person in my speech and body language, some actually get uncomfortable

It's hard to be good to him especially when you tried your best to control your temper. But still he is rude.

I feel irritated on people who are rude and would never listen to them at all. I dont like people who are harsh and bitter.I like people who are sweet and soothing always

I would prefer to ignore and keep silence when they shout most of the time but sometimes it becomes necessary to give it back..I had such a neighbor ( thank God she moved to another place ), we ignored her as much as we could but we had have to give it back to her finally to control her ill-mannered behavior.

Sometimes you have to give it back to them in a not so rude action, enough to let him know how rude he is.

The best way to treat people is to return back what they give to you..if a person is good to you be good to him or her and if he behaves badly with you then the favour has to be returned in the same way.The people who behave rudely should be made to understand that they are not so special that the other people will bear their rudeness for no rhyme or reason.It has been rightly said "As you sow so shall you reap".

Yeah. Usually when rude people are right there, I ignore them. Ignoring them are like being rude to that person, disrespecting him indirectly. That's what I usually do. If I care about him then I would reprimand him.
