Rude people are everywhere. But how can you keep your cool when they want to trigger your mind into that fury of rage and make your blood boil?
- Do not give them the attention they expect
This will make them go air-less, all the expectations they might have had for making you mad
will turn to failure. A rude person doesn’t like that, they will just “burn” in their own fire. - Do not respond and just shake it off
The best way to deal with rude users who either mail you or call and harass you is to just relax and do not respond at all. If you respond you will be putting petrol on the fire. And you have better things to do, right? - So what if you are right..
If a rude user tries to walk over you with assumptions about you or something you do. Just ask yourself this simple question.. “Does the other person deserve to know if you are right or wrong?” if you were right, would it make them go nice with you? If they were right.. does it make any difference in your life? You will save lots of time NOT paying attention to them - To be rude or not to be
If someone is rude to you then remember one simple thing. A person is either rude or they aren’t. If I am rude towards another human being then that’s how I will be one time or the other with you too. But if my values my tradition my religion is so well injected in me, I wouldn’t need to think if I am to be rude to you or not, I will just be what I REALLY am. Rudeness comes out one way or the other. - Rude people at work
So you aren’t so happy with a co-worker who is rude? Well why are you letting him/her be incharge over your emotions and feelings. Rude co-workers have a plan. They want to make you feel as you owe them something and they are better than you. So next time they be rude, either put them in their place nicely.. or relax and do the “in one ear out the other” technique - Rude people at home
Some people have family members that shout and are rude towards them. Well look at it this way, atleast you are lucky you have a family, a brother, sister, mother, father. Imagine those who struggle to find love in orphanages all their lives and end up no where. But coming back to the point, to deal with rude people at home.. do NOT hurt yourself, it’s not your fault. As the one “bullying” you might have personal issues that they have to deal with. Don’t let yourself scar in the process. Stay strong, smile and shake it off by saying in your mind “I am too strong to be affected” - Rude people on the road
Lots of times I get people driving in my lane just milliseconds after they have given a signal to turn. One has two choices.. either to start abusing the hell out of the other person from your car, something he may never hear OR the best option would be to say “Oh that was close hehe man I am good with brakes” or something similar. Just imagine how much blood boil you would save.. giving any situation the comic uplifting makes any situation turn “cool” - Rude people at a supermarket
This is what I do often. No no not being rude. But whenever someone is making their own line next to the till.. I am usually one of those who in a friendly tone.. first smiles, and says “oh sorry sir I guess you missed the line” There has never been a single time when a smile has resulted in a rude reply. The thing is that us humans long for “smiles” and if someone talks nicely to us, and that too “among lots of others in line” the one breaking the rules might not have guts to come up with a good reason why he has to go before the five old ladies behind you.
I am sure lots of you have other lovely tips you want to share.. so go ahead..

Thumbs up for this one Wakas
)
Let me also tell an open secret
That completely ignoring someone being rude to any1 is the rudest thing one can do, now isnt that gr8? One can answer back in the same way without being rude back
(well oki thats my personal thinking
)
Amazing written, loved reading thru it!!
))
i always believed that any rude indiviual act from their values they are injected with, and the other person reply with the values they have, one cant and shudnt be rude to a rude person as then there wont be any diffrence between them at all
what I have to say abt rude ppl is:
“Small people, Small pleasures”
Be blessed and keep it up

Personal note@Wakas Bhai(no related to topic) This morning I was attempting to follow ur steps to make parathas…unfortunaly it was futile attempt & turned out to be aadha kucha & burnt-over besides being out of shape..I think it takes a web designer like u to be perfect paratha maker…My daughter(Mohana..she is of no help in kitchen department either bcz she babying her bay infant Sophia) suggeted that WAkas sahab should sell his brand of parathas on e-bay or Amazon for our benefit…I was also moved by the way U descibed ur first SAHRI in ur household by waking up siblings & being generous to feed them …what a happy loving caring & sharing spirit u posses …in return may ALLAH reward U & grant ur good wishes…Aameen-Suum-Aameen

This was a helpful one Wakas and one we encounter quite often in life.It helps to think that it is impossible for everybody on this planet to like you.Some do some dont & those who dont are the ones who become rude.
The question I always ask myself when I encounter people who are rude is if they or their opinion really matters to me, if they speaking ill of me whether their saying things about me makes it so.Then I just act normal with them, i dont ignore them but ignore their rude comments , that makes most of them sheepish

Ok, I am a master at this “just ignore” thing but playing cool doesn’t come easily, especially while you are driving in Lahori traffic!
