You're right about my reaction because they enjoyed getting me angry. I was told the same thing in group therapy and from my therapist that to just smile and walk away. I did get defensive and I expected them to knock it off if I didn't want to discuss it because that is how I would be. My therapist told me they won't treat me with common courtesy because they don't know how and will not accept you for who you are.
I went to church during my lunch hour and the priest told me not to defend Jesus because He can take care of himself and if they don't amend their ways, they will PAY for it in the end. That is what you said too.
When I get really angry, I can't even think straight because I can't think of what to say when it first happens to me. To me, my attitude has begun to change, and in my mind, I have to treat them as if they were a BUG on a TREE in a different country.
But wife is still sharp with me when I am home. When my son was done with his shower, I started to go upstairs and told my so I will be right up, and the W responded, you're a day late and a dollar short. I ignored her, but its getting more and more difficult to ignore her and I am ready to just tell her to Drop Dead.
