What is the best way to handle people who are rude?

as you said your already been with them for six years, I guess they are your friends, sometimes they can get rude, or even ridiculous but I guess thats better than having boring friends..ahaha anyway if they are not your friends, try to stay away but if you cant, like what they have said, just tell them that you think they are rude, dont worry if you might hurt their feelings, because I am sure they are not worried hurting others feelings too, thats why they are called "rude" I think the best way is to treat them like how they treat you

i say the advice you have gotten in the past is a bitter pill to accept, but it's correct. you should just let it and them go. what's the purposed of even trying to get respect from someone who won't automatically give it you, because you deserve it just like them?

hi LaurenLynn when the person just will not change then its time tol decide you just do not want anymore to do with this person,.Once you gave him or her a chance and they became just as mean and as l not need that pain. sometimes a person is rude and is just out of sorts and when you realize that you an cut them some slack b ut someone who is just out and out rude all the time its just not worth the hassle/em].

Some people just enjoy being a burr in other people's back side. This has been going on for six years so there isn't really anything you can do about it other than ignore the person and stop trying with them. There is one waitress at this great cafe that is like that. I thought it was personal only towards me but then watched her and she's just like that with everyone. How knows why she chooses a job like that being in the public eye because she certainly doesn't have the personality for it. I don't try to make nice with her. I'm a customer there and she is there doing a job. If she's rude, well then no tip for you! Sometimes we just need to chalk it up that she's a misseriable person who just wants to go through life being misseriable.

Yes, it has happened to me too. Tell them they are rude and why. Two possible outcomes. 1) they say sorry or 2) they continue to be rude. If it is one let it go but it may happen again, repeat. If it is two, ignore them for they do not wish to change Other things you can do is fight back to let them know this is not acceptable but that approach can backfire.

Ignore them,this person must be a very unhappy creature who spends his short life hating,criticizing,arguing and being rude to others.In the end people harm only themselves.Doing bad destroys soul and even the body because anger produces toxic chemicals that can lead to serious diseases.Your weapons are:laughter,forgiveness,smile,love.

I have experience with colleagues and bosses who are rude and critizising, it made me feel bad not being to voice out my problem. However, if you need to talk it out, to lessen the pressure welcome mylot here to do it. After all we aonly live once in a lifetime and should be happy in everything almost.

Honestly, I either kill them with so much kindness that it gets on their nerves or I completely ignore someone who is rude to me. By kindness I mean the fake kind of being nice where it is SO put on that they can tell you really want to slap them in the face if you could Lol! Or like I said just ignore them completely. The silent treatment usually gives them the message as well.

Hi, Laurenlynn It must be very hard for you because it is someone in your family , your sister who is rude to you, I mean how do you not associate with your own family. I wish that I were closer to my family , I have only one brother and we were never very close. Nowadays, I am quite close with my grand daughter who is growing up too fast she's already 14 and has a boyfriend and many other friends so I try to spend time with her before she has not much time for me anymore. Life is short, its a pity that your sister couldn't be happy just to love and be kind to you. You would both be happier for it.

Hi- I think there is no way but to avoid habitual rude people because these people do not listen to reasons, generally stressed, have too little reasoning and tend to behave as if 'know all' I think those people are stubborn and frustrated. Stay away from such people is best strategy. Cheers.

Hi, Your way of handling rude people is right. There are many people who are rude to us. They can not speak politely or softly. They are always arrogant. I hate such people. we have to neglect the behavior of such people. Otherwise it would become headache to us. We should avoid such people as far as possible. And we have to keep our mind cool while dealing with such people.

Yes, it happens to me many times. I do also behave politely with them as I think maybe they will understand their rude behave and they will be shy with it. but I think sometimes there are people who really do not understand the meaning of shy, and we should behave in the same way or worse than what they behave with us, then they will sit in their place.

Well, I am the same way as you are. I just don't talk to them. Last year I deal with something like this and all I do is nothing. Whenever I see her, just nothing. And I hear her saying something behind my back and stuff like that but I still didn't do anything and didn't say anything. I am just that kind of person I guess. Why? Because I believe in karma. ^_^ One day they will feel the same way what they have done to us or to other people. :)

this happens to everybody almost all the time. we do not have control about the behavior of the people around us so just shrug your shoulders and think... "well, i guess no one taught this person good manners".

just leave these people , no time , change other people dear, we change our self only dear

I would just say that I don't know about other people but I would just ignore the person if he is being rude to me or by being rude to them could also work.

we have any way for handle to our way.you mus learn what kind of people it.then you study him ell. after that you can do this work.

as i always said that i am like a mirror who ever view it see their image which i mean if you are nice i would be nice and if you are rude i will be rude, sounds fair, right?

there are so many ways to handle rude people, but i think the first and the best option is ignore them, that is the first option and then if that doesn't work ask to the person directly, tell him/her you don't like their attitude, and the last and the worst one is violence haha :D, but i prefer to ignore and try not to be near or talk with that kind of people for a while

The best way to do is to ignore them completely. There's no point in confronting them because it may not even solve anything. Rather, they might even continue to be rude. And for sure, karma has its own way of getting back at them.
