i had a friend tell me this before
"a normal person who meets an random ******* on the street, they would ignore it and go about their day"
but for me, i often find myself hard to walk away.
its almost like my vision narrows like a movie screen and im just watching myself in third person go off
I understand and realize that there will always be *******s in the world and as I am typing this I realize I have to choose and pick my battles.
Any miscers have some tips to turn the other cheek?

I want to take you seriously but I suspect you're an alt.
To answer your question, I have this issue. I've been fired from a job after being there over a decade for being "confrontational".
I also confronted cheating ex and the guy she cheated on me with and it almost landed me in prison (srs). I have to go to civil court soon over this. Ded fkn srs
I've never been in a real fight, but the few I have come close to being in occurred when I stood up to some thugs wanting to phuck with me.
What I've learned? Walk away. It could mean the difference between jail and freedom.
Pride takes a hit though. (it would either way sadly)Earth is critically overpopulated, people with more than 2 kids need to sacrifice their surplus to Jabba the Hutt

I am being serious.
What did you do at your job? did you not tiptoe around when asking someone to complete their task?
Can you tell your story about the ex?
I would confront the guy too depending on the situation .
I've only been in a few fights, by no means I am a good fighter at all. I just don't roll over when confronted by thugs or drunk *******s.
Idk. Has any1 attended anger management class or is it bull****?

It’s your adrenaline response srs
Overactive and easily excited. Makes you absolutely not think and do things in the moment. Physiologically it pumps your heart rate up, slows rational thinking in the brain, and makes you angry. Fight or flight
You need to learn to relax this reaction system, and also be able to recognize it quicker

i feel like i have been getting better about it recently but another confrontation sets me back.
i dont want to do something in the heat of the moment and regret it
or
escalate something that coulda been avoided .
like i said earlier honestly thats one of the reasons why i avoid crowded bars and never get plastered anymore. afraid i will hurt someone or myself in a stupid bar fight if you meet a group of *******s.

I used to have anger issues due to my abusive father. I got court appointed anger management, my therapist did help me some. That's something you should maybe try.
Also realize you might hurt someone or they might hurt you, it's not worth the mental or physical pain once your adrenaline drops and you have time to think.
If it's an ego thing, drop that too, once you quit thinking about what people think of you life is easier.
Good luck bro.
If you have problems, stop and think about them and what you can do to fix them and make life better.If you need to talk, pm me, I'm here for you.

Idk recipe brah I have the opposite problem. Almost never get angry at anyone. Even when I should be angry.
My ex had anger issues though so I know what it looks like.
I think anger comes from ego. So if you feel disproportionally big anger maybe that means your ego is disproportionally big.If you ain't got no haters you ain't poppin'

Yeah bro I know what you mean. I used to be the same way, especially when I was on the sauce. I am lucky I am not dead or in prison now srs, I have some stories of times like this that I am so embarrassed to tell
Meditation has helped me a ton, it almost allows you to slow down and “get behind” the reaction and make better choices in the heat of the moment. Also I believe some people are just naturally more aggressive, getting that anger out through lifting or fighting or other sports is great too.
Lastly, the realization that most people are just doing what they do unconsciously also allows me to not care nearly as much. They are just running on a program, almost mindlessly doing stuff.
ALSO: think deeply, why does what they do offend you? What part of it makes you feel weak, or scared or like you need to defend yourself? Where does it come from. This one is deep and involves a lot of character growth but a huge one

Yea that is why I never really confronted my cheating ex. I was scared of him and scared that a confrontation would escalate and have bad consequences.
It’s not worth it at all because once you know someone is cheating, there is nothing you can do to fix that. You can’t change people. You can’t make people be honest or loyal. Anger or confrontation doesn’t change anything. All you can do to make an actual change is just end the relationship.If you ain't got no haters you ain't poppin'
