if you did something that was very irritating to others, like "passive aggressive" behaviour..... so that you could modify your behaviour? Or at least so you had the CHOICE whether to continue with that behaviour and let others deal with their annoyance (and probably ignore you)...... OR modify your behaviour?

Or would you just want people to say "it is ok sweetie, you are so special"

Could it be that those who you dislike because of their honesty in fact have your best interests at heart and decided to say how they felt rather than simply ignoring you?
