Even a worm when trodden will turn back,not to say a man. But if some one insult you or take off your coat, what will be the best reaction that you would choose? Just now,one of my friend sent me a short message to ask me for help for he has hurt somebody and made that guy laying in hospital! Been insulted of course is a very annoying thing ,but is it necessary to solve it by fighting ?

I used to think that the best way is to walk away when you are provocated. But from experience I realised that I am not very good at that aspect when I am provoked by loved ones. I can ignore others but when a person I consider close to me keep provoking me...after a point..I lose my cool:( I know I shouldn't but that's what happens and I fight back...not physically but verbally.
