>>9166218If you're having a casual conversation with a stranger, I doubt you're being confrontational or passive aggressive. It's not about winning, either. It's about what is the correct thing to do, or the correct response given the situation.
That's clearly not what I'm referring to, Anon.
Like the posts above me said, confronting someone is better than being passive aggressive. But if someone is being passive aggressive towards you, how is it possible to respond WITHOUT being the bad guy?
The only two possible responses are don't acknowledge it, or stoop to their level and be passive aggressive.
How does one handle such a situation tactfully?
You don't.
