Simply said: I get angry when I am disrespected. I don't get EVEN.
But some people are PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE.
1. Do you try to talk things out?
2. or Do you walk away in a huff?
3. or Do you argue back until you win?
I see the GETTING EVEN approach happening more these days, don't you agree?
What steps should we as individuals, try to do or not do, to CHILL OUT after getting into either an argument with someone or a fight?
Comments welcome.

I'm like "Whatever" and just walk away. Some people argue for the sake of it. If someone disrespects me I give them the 'glare' then leave them be.

@MALUSE My daughter says so. 
I think it saved me from many a mugging as I walk after dark alot. Of course when you are 5'11, 210lbs with an air of detachment and indifference about you, people tend to take you seriously when you give them 'the glare'.

@MALUSE I believe it. They prey on the vulnerable or those who would easily succumb to their vulnerability.

@MALUSE I can see that and pretty sure it is true and beware of women and the evil eye. That is the only thing I fear. I cannot take that stare for anything. It makes me feel like I am on fire I would rather be staring down a barrel of a shotgun because then I know its them and not me. When a women does that, you know its you, all you.

One enjoys the fantasy of getting even but not in reality. I don't want to do to others what I don't want done to me.

I do, but I always find it funny I am such a small guy and when you really piss me off not even the biggest guys will challenge me. I get all three and not really proud of it. Other than the first one. I actually last night just wrote a mylot post. and it made me feel better and calmed down. Why I say I appreciate mylot, keeps the police away from me and used to know those guys by name and sorry Marines may be jerks but have nothing on police these days. Zero relatable qualities. At least Marines try to be friendly.

The best way of getting even, I have discovered, is to not let the other person have the satisfaction. I just move on.

Sorry to hear it. It can become a bad habit between couples. I find that I never win any arguments and it is very wise just to remain calm and not to shout and to be a good listener. It is difficult even for me. I have learned something from past experiences, shouting matches do more harm than good for relationships or marriages. Take time outs whenever possible.

Hi Anthony. I have this attitude of letting it all die down and then I get even when it is less expected.
