5 TRICKS TO DEALING WITH TACTLESS PEOPLE

1. Breathe before reacting. If someone annoys you mercilessly and you jump the gun and react right away, you may end up regretting your counterattack. When someones gives you an insensitive comment, pause for a minute, count to five, and try to get a sense of clarity and calm.

2. PUT YOURSELF IN HER PLACE. Ask yourself this: How would you want someone to react to you if you accidentally and non-maliciously say something tactless to her? That comment may have been insensitive, but does it really warrant a big fight?

3. Keep RESPECT in the picture. You may be the victim of a tactless tita or an unsympathetic teacher, but these people are still authority figures. If you're going to retort, make sure to stay as respectful as possible. Either keep quiet and smile, or defend yourself with a one-liner that does not insult them.

4. Count on wit. If your annoying peer keeps slinging verbal punches at you, have a slew of witty comebacks prepared just to keep her on her toes. Instead of being angry, come back at her with irony, sarcasm, and snark.

5. MOVE ON. There's nothing wrong with feeling angry. Get mad if you don't have to, but dont hold grudges and learn to let go. Don't let a tactles, careless comment ruin your entire day!
