It's My Way Or The Highway: I tell you what is sad... Part 2

I tell you what is sad. People who always want their own way.

And always get it.

When people are afraid to speak up and disagree or not do what people demand they do for the fear of getting:

  • yelled at

  • sworn at

  • ridiculed

  • called names

  • pysically hurt


That's me. Some people may call it weak. Some people may say "why don't you just stand up to the so and so?". To them I say, I am nice, and foremost - this person has a condition that makes him act the way he acts.

It is only recently that he has been like this and throwing his tantrums the way he does.

Maybe he feels he has power over me because he uses (doesn't own) a fancy car and lives in a big fancy house.

I don't know what it is - but it is not fair to yell and swear at someone and tell them to leave your car when another person does not agree with your idea.

My example here today is that I had lost my ATM card and this person said that I *needed* a wallet. I said that I didn't. The person said I did. I said I didn't. Not once during this time did I raise my voice, swear or call the other person names - but funnily enough, the other person decided to throw a tantrum and demand that he is right - that I just agree.

I said no. He swore at me. I asked that he stop. He swore again and called me a dickhead. I asked him to stop or I would leave the car - because I didn't want to be in a situation where:

  • a person with his condition was angry

  • where he was angry and driving a car (lord knows if he would've crashed it or what?)

  • that he was yelling, swearing and abusing me


He said "fine, get out."

In other words - "It's my way or the highway."
