I also find Passive-Aggressiveness REALLY annoying, @Have Hope! If someone disliked me, I'd much rather prefer them to tell me that in my face, directly, but otherwise it's just annoying and NOT productive at all! I feel like it is often easier to behave like this rather than confront people directly. Luckily, I have rarely experienced this kind of behavior myself, but whn it DOES happen, it is SO annoying! I am so sorry for whoever has to deal with it one way or another. I COMPLETELY agree with all of the other wise and wonderful Posters! It is nice we can all agree on this! I also COMPLETELY agree that it often isn't intentional, although it can still be annoying. Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @Have Hope, ALL of your Family, ALL of your Friends, EVERYONE and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK, MY DEAR, SWEET, KIND, AWESOME AND WONDERFUL FRIENDS?! :yourock.
