Killing me Softly

There are always going to be people in your life that you don’t get along with, someone with whom you just aren’t compatible. This doesn’t mean that you aren’t nice to them, you just are never going to be close. This person may be someone with whom you are constantly disagreeing or picking fights. It sometimes seems as if this person is your enemy.
I have come up with a new strategy for dealing with this type of person. Kill them with kindness. Instead of being mean back to them, go out of your way to do something nice for them. This will do two things. It will first confuse them. “Why are they being nice to me after I was so unpleasant toward them?” The second thing it will do is frustrate them and make them feel guilty.
