deleting email from someone making me angry

Postby djenner » Fri Jul 25, 2014 9:06 pm

I got an email from a person that made me angry before, I received an email from him and deleted it permanently without reading it. Do you think that's a good idea?

When someone is provoking us, Ignoring is best option to choose..

Because we dont want to fight back, we dont want to run away from, we dont want to surrender, so our best option is to choose to ignore As you just did by deleting the message....

However, your prediction about What he written on the email could be wrong or, could be correct, now i dont think judging is a good idea but still your inner peace is more important than this person...

Our inner peace is more important, this person is not important so deleting the email is absolute a good idea...

This depends on how angry you became and how good you are at managing your emotions.

If it's likely to piss you off; delete!

Nobody can make you angry, your response to someone is making you angry

Yes, they can make me angry even if I don't respond, even when I don't read that email, just the fact that he tried to justify his behaviour once again already changed something in me I can't control.

Ignoring is a good option to choose But it does not means you are comfortable with situation, still ignoring makes you really great, because you are rejecting an invitation to a figh ( argument ) with someone who maybe has no idea what he is doing, and no better targets about life...

A leader is created by rejecting, you not only leading yourself towards relaxation, you also helping this guy to understand that not all the people accept fighting invitations, and also helping him choose relaxation because he has nothing else to choose because you rejected him...

You take your own decisions. If this person made you angry enough to delete his/her message than you had every right to delete the message and not respond. It depends of how angry this person made you and how bad this person is for you. For example if it is someone who almost destroyed your life, makes you feel and all the time and absolutely doesn't like you or talk to you then sure ignore them. Show that you have better things to do and that you don't need more message from that person. Sometimes in life you gotta do what is best for you. Sometimes you gotta be what people call selfish to feel better.

Hey, i dont need someone to destroy my life, so i can finally feel it is ok to ignore, one doesnt have to be " a really, really bad person "

Like you can ignore my reply ; it doesnt mean i have destroyed your life, neither i see ignoring as punishment...

But maybe my reply leads to an nonsense argument, so lots of times we have to ignore; it doesnt always have to destroy someone else life...

Ignoring is not a punishment, ignoring it is not bad, it is not selfish; as you made statements about...

Ignoring is simply a rejection to invitations on wrong direction: argumenting, wasting time, disturbing the inner peace...

Feel free to ignore all the time...
