It depends.
My grandmother is such person. But she is mine and she is old,
and I see her once a week. So I just try not to pay attention.
In other cases I can be angry or nervous. I'm lucky and I don't
have a boss or a wife of such type.
I try just not to communicate with such people.
dolganov, of course if it's an old woman / man you behave one way. But what will you say if it's your close friend, if he /she has changed and it's very difficult to communicate with him / her?
Roxana_Siren, and if it doesn't help? You know, even our friends (some of them) try to teach us how to live...
Is it easier to sacrifice communication or calmness?
Is it your friend ?
In fact, I don't know.
Maybe it would do to explain your feelings to that person
( if she/he is your friend it may work).
You may come to some common point of view.
But if that person doesn't care about your feelings -
strange friend.
dolganov, well, not a very close friend... just friend, I don't know how to explain... Well, sometimes I see that some people around me are very strange, they have opinion that they suppose to be right and they say that I'm not able to think, that I need to think to have right opinion. But I have it, I have my own thoughts... and some people can't understand that...
