Indirect Disrespect

[Sir_CoboTheFirst]

I’m new here and just beginning to understand the ways of social life. I read Hector’s article series about disrespect. Reason I’m saying this is because today a stranger that lives in my building (female) indirectly disrespected me and thought to handle it better than I did. Any advice from anyone would be great to improve myself for next time. So here what happened:

We (female stranger & me) waited for the elevator at the lobby floor with another guy beside us.
When the elevator opened I let everyone come out of the elevator and let myself in FIRST.
I held the door for everyone else to come in (guy, & and female stranger)
She then made a comment to the guy next to her saying “Thanks, there’s some people who aren’t considerate and inpatient. But don’t worry it isn’t you” guy giggles and looks down. Then she looks at me, and I stare at her and give her a “Really bitch?” Face, look away and walk out to my floor. Was there any way to demand some kind of respect in a matter of a few seconds Before getting out? Adive and Critisms are invited thank you

Probably because you farted...


and if you didn't, you should have...

the thing with articles like that is that they are extremely naunced and begginers simply don't have the social experience to understand them and act accordingly.

You cannot stop everyone from disrespecting you because a lot of times its not personal. And getting visibly angry or scolding some random youll never see again is the exact opposite of what a cool, powerful guy would do.

Best thing to do there is to look at her with a skeptical look, shrug your shoulders, and go about your day.

Don't ever demand respect unless it was from someone close to you, or the disrespect has happened a few times.

Cacc, The magazine its self should clue the reader into the fact that it is Satire, and to not take it seriously. As we should not take ourselves or every interaction seriously.
