Essentially, how do you react to someone being critical of you? Do you flip out on them, do you listen to what they have to say and then possibly argue it? Do you back down and stew over it quietly?

How do you deal with aggressive people?

I used to be the person that let people walk all over me. However, I had (and still sort of have) one fatal flaw in my character, when you do me wrong, I gotta get you back. I'm trying to erase this habit, but it's almost an instinct now. Back then, I wouldn't really say anything if someone did something to me. However, I'd strike back when things were quiet and the incident was forgotten. Apparently, I must have had some sort of look as well because my family could tell when I planning on revenge.

Now, I open my mouth a lot more often, now, but it seems like the same mean streak is still there, I guess. I'm trying to find a balance somewhere in the mix, I guess.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I have the opposite of that problem you have. I have the tendency not to rage against too much of nothing, but I'm willing to put actions to my anger.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
