personality conflict. ( Archived) (3)

an interesting dynamic that i have run into frequently . the first time i think iwas eighteen or nineteen. some jerk that gets their way by throwing temper tantrums , or otherwise just making themselves unapproachable, or difficult to tolerate.

the common factor among these individuas, is there is usually two or three people that will cater to this person. if you anger this person, they will take you to the side and say some thing like," oh, that's just the way he is"
even as an eighteen year old kid, my gut reaction was, well, guess what? your almighty that you bow down to in there is about to find out how i am.
they usually don't like it. there are two types of people. those that want to be angry, and those that want to be happy. do you know what i mean? the guy that's always looking for the next thing to piss him off, as opposed to someone that attempts to keep their chin up?

well i am an accommodating person, a people pleaser if you will, to an extent.
real simple, and some people are so surprised when they get what they give.


have any similar experiences?

i am usually a peacemaker, have been around people like you are describing, and unfortuneately if you call them on it, they just tend to treat others worse. Do not look at the positive side of anything, and seem to be always looking for their next fight. Or to find pleasure at someone else's expense.
I am a person who can stand up for themselves with question, but, prefer not to be around people like this.
