Passive aggression typically results from fear, insecurity, wanting to be “nice”, not wanting to cause waves or hurt other people’s feelings, etc. It also stems from a desire to have other people like you and accept you.

It really is unhealthy too.

I used to be like that but overcame it, thanks to God. It takes courage to be bluntly honest about where you stand on things. It takes a tremendous amount of courage when you first start but it gets much easier with time. It’s not easy, but honesty truly is the best policy. It’s also a huge weight off your shoulders once you learn how to stand up for yourself. It’s extremely liberating!

My heart goes out to you. Feel free to FReepmail me anytime ok?
