It’s a new thing and I hope it sticks.
Lately I’ve been complaining about passive-aggression and passiveness in general.
My new thing is to only associate with people who are assertive.
Because I’m sick of passivity and all of the misunderstandings and frustration that come along with it.
Or something.
And, now that I must practice what I preach, I vow to stop being passive-aggressive (even when I’m feeling emotional about something) and just say what I mean as often as possible.
Starting now.

But then people will think you’re a bitch!
The give and take requires some mastery. ;)

When women are assertive, they’re called bitches.
When men are assertive, it’s no big deal.
Think on it.
