Difficult People

How do you avoid letting difficult people get you down? We all have people who are negative, or complainers, or naggers. Many times, I let these people pull me in to their worlds and I start to take their stress on as my own. I worry about them, think about how to help them, cry for them... etc... Do you have any ideas how to deal with these kind of people?

I will never allow people to pull me down or put me down. Just ignore those negative thinkers and never give them satisfaction. The more you show you are affected the more they rejoices. but when you ignore them and make them feel that you are not affected that will annoy them and they will leave you then.

I really try to avoid them although I know it's not always possible. The hardest is when you have to work with them, and you literally cannot avoid them.

i have to remind myself that i can't rescue them. i have to take care of myself and my family first. everyone else has to take a backseat. especially if they can't be there for me when i need help.

I don't like to give respect to such people. So i talk to them with the way they understand. Then only they will know that what is bad and what is good.
