A Conversation with a social inhibitor

Tonight, I had a conversation with a social inhibitor

---
It happens all the time that someone do not agree with you on something
or does not have the same worldview as you
What can you possibly do?
Negotiate and discuss with civility
It does not have to result in an agreement but at least each of you would have raised his own voice
---
It is harder when you are with a social inhibitor
--
Who is a social inhibitor?
My definition is : Someone who completely denigrate a ounce of humanity in some individuals because they have different attributes, characteristics than their own.

What can you do?
Highlight than they are being discriminatory and leave them to think about their attitude and behaviour.
If they do not change, what can you do? just keep telling them when their behaviour is inappropriate.
if you are getting tired, cut the tie.
if you are not...

Any ideas?

Time to listen

Sometimes our own perspective on life may get in the way of what we understand when others speaks. Pause, breathe and really listen. You may learn something. if you are too busy with your own thoughts, you will not even realise what was said. You will probably misinterpret some important signal. So what to do, Pause, breathe, ask further questions before sharing an informed answer based on fact and not your own imagination

Are we good friend?

A friend came to visit. She brought flowers and a card. Inside the card, she wrote that I was an amazing friend. To her, at least. It is normal to question yourself on the quality of your friendship and whether or not  you are a good friend to other people, are you doing enough to engage, support, celebrate others when they go through major transition? How much more can you do while racing through life, its responsibilities and distractions? A good tool to use for reflection is the theory of attachment to understand yourself and how your type of attachement impact on the quality of relationships. Have a look and let me know what you think?
