be nice even others are not..

I was brought up in a family where we were taught to be nice to others despite the fact that other people aren't always nice to us. This is something that comes natural to me. There are few people that I'm not able to be nice to. I know that there are some people that encounter in my life with whom I'm not able to be nice to, but even with those people that I'm not really able to get along with, I do still try to be nice to them because it is my desire to be treated well by other people.

i always treat everybody nicely the first time i meet them, but if they do something which i do not like, i simply avoid them if i can. if it needs more than just avoiding , then i may have to tell them that i don't like what he/she did. and i would prefer them leaving me alone. i won't even ask anyone why they done it. no reason would be enough justification as to why despite my being nice somebody would still be able to unkind to me.

Being nice is my general response. However, we should use wisdom when dealing with certain situation. When we are right and this people take it away, we should diplomatically take a stand ... in a nice way! If things still the same, we have to creatively handle it. This world is not always nice!

I try to be nice as much as I can. But if someone is really testing my temper, then, I burst! I don't feel good being that way but sometimes, we could not get hold of our emotions.

It is really hard to be nice when others are not. I try my best to be patient with those who have a bad attitude towards others. It helps me to have practice. There will more than likely be many times when others don't treat us right.

Hi neelis, I am with you..The majority of the time I would like to think I am a nice person and treat people with the utmost respect because that what I demand from others to\ treat me...But sometimes people will just not allow you to be you they can take me out of character which is not a nice scene...But oh well, I am only human...

Well, I think that every person has the right to express his opinion freely forever. Obviously with discretion without "hurting" and affect other people's ideas. But I am just one of those who never speaks, even I am good to pick up for me when I'm right! very bad for me! Then inside of me, are create conflict. Ok, as you said, sometimes we all let run to avoid major problems, but some authority, (which I do not), we must possess all, instill it is a right! The phrase that is more suitable to my behavior: "Subjects himself to fate, those who can not fight back!"

Hi!! I have always tried to be nice with others even if they have been bad to me,I don't fight for something from someone I rather just do what I want and ignore the other person this helps me stay in peace rather than having a dispute.

its hard to b nice when others are not nice to you but its sais never change your personality for the sake of others as is popularly said no-one can play you perfectly than you.you have to be very patient to apply this principle in one's life but if if you do u reach a situation that is not possible for an ordinary person to reach.there are times when you find it very hard to be nice with a person whose is not nice with you.many a times in life you do not feel like talking to person whose is not nice to you at such situations u will find it very tough to be nice with others.

We are called, as Christians, to be salt in this world. That means that we have to have the kind of attitude towards others that stops things going rotten. So we cannot respond in kind although we may be sorely tempted to do so. I think we should fight back for others however if we see them being abused. I once saw some young men walking behind a woman who was limping badly and immitating her walk as if it was a joke to be crippled. I spoke to them, I could not help myself. They looked surprised but they did not retaliate. We walk in a world where there is much evil around and we have to live in it but not become part of it.

Well I try to do this mostly but I kinda find it tough. But yeah I encounter many not so nice people but still I try to be nice and kind. Very little times I lose my temper. And yeah it is very tough if you stay in eastern country like I do. Hope this helps!

I very much like the idea of paying it forward and the random acts of kindness that have become the fad lately. I think that if more people went out of their way to be kind and do and say nice things for others that they can at least control their little part of the world. Maybe even they will influence that person who is mean and negative? sometimes it is right to fight for what you believe in and for setting something straight. Other times it is not worth the battle because you will never win the war. I always was taught to choose my battles carefully because I didnt' need to be exhausted when it was time to go to war.

Yes, be good even others are not, anyway, it is not your problem if they will have bad impression to others. And always remember, do unto others what you like others do unto you.

I agree with you, I also think that people should be nice even if others aren't. I do my best to be nice everyday, it gives satisfaction.

I always do my best to control my temper. Most of the time, it's successful. LOL. But there are times that I really want to fight back. I just frown or raise my eyebrow. I sometimes nag, to myself. LOL. I'm angry but I can't tell the person or people directly. However if the people are members of my family, I tell them. I want to apply this rule but sometimes we break our own rules. LOL. Happy myLotting!

I always tried to. Being nice to people who shows us unkindness is like insulting them, and such a way- we are also giving them a good example. Treating them with kindness they will realize how shameful they are- and hope that will give them something to learn as well.

It depends in who these mean people are. If they are your family, you should reconsider because you can always talk to them about it. But if they are other people who simply are just jealous of you, then you must fight back. I am a person who always fight for what i think is right. Even with my family, i tell them what i think, but i don't insist it if they don't like it.

I agree with you 100%, I have a few people here in mexico who are always mean. So when they are mean to me, I still talk nice to them. I think they feel more bad at that.

That is a good response eventhough some are mean to you. However, at times these kind of people would be abusive of you and can harm at times emotionally and verbally. When this happens, I fight back too. I wonder why there are so many mean people nowadays. :-(

I will smile to everyone in the morning, but if they are rude or just ignore me, i will not smile to him or her again today. We treat people with our best greetings and we all want the others be nice to us.
