Assertiveness is the ability to express one's thoughts, feelings, and needs in a clear and respectful manner, while also respecting the thoughts and feelings of others. It involves standing up for oneself without being aggressive or passive.
What are symptoms of passive aggressive abuse?
Here are some ways of identifying the problem -- and the way it starts is always the same.. they start to make unkind comments, and then tell you it is a joke or cover it up to make you devalue yourself 1. Passive-aggressive people rarely take a stand. At first they seem very diplomatic and easy to get along with. They never argue and may even seem eager to please. But that's all a front. They don't keep promises, and even if they verbally agree with you, they will do what they want or complain about you behind your back. Or, they will simply shuffle along, and will only act if they are under extreme pressure-like when you finally yell at them or give an ultimatum. 2. Passive-aggressive people are forgetful. It's very difficult to trust or rely on passive-aggressive people. They conveniently forget what they don't want to do. Or, they "punish" you by dropping the ball on an important responsibility, and then apologize profusely so you feel guilty about being disappointed or angry. People also use passive-aggressive behavior if they have trouble dealing with pressure. Instead of asking for help, or setting boundaries and saying no, they agree to everything but do nothing. 3. Passive-aggressive people like to blame others. As far as they're concerned, everything is everybody else's fault. If they can't keep a job, it's because 'the boss was crazy" or "my wife wasn't supportive enough" or "my co-workers were out to get me." They see no reason to change their actions and have no motivation to look for alternatives or opportunities. In fact, passive-aggressive people also tend to carry a lot of resentment and anger ("everyone else ruined my life!") and like to "punish" others for what happened to them. They also put a lot of pressure on others. As they throw a pity party for themselves, you're expected to pick up the slack or to make them feel good about themselves. They can also be very critical, because they prefer seeing the faults of others over admitting their own. 4. Passive-aggressive people suppress feelings. Many of them were raised to hide their feelings. Maybe they were punished when they got angry, or told to "stop crying and act like a man." So they suppress their real emotions, and have a tendency to either suddenly blow up or to get back at you in subtle ways. For example, a wife may not confront her husband about his cheating, but will quietly undermine his relationship with the kids. 5. Passive-aggressive people are afraid commitment and dependency. They are often control freaks. They don't want to admit that they need you or care about you, and usually sabotage relationships. For example, they will find reasons to break up with people, or use ways to retain control over a relationship (such as withholding money, sex or approval) so they don't feel dependent on others. 6. Passive-aggressive people are insensitive to others' needs. Healthy relationships are based on give-and-take, but for passive-aggressive people it's "all about me." They may say "I love you" and appear to be compassionate and concerned, but they either forget to follow through, or continue behavior that they know will upset you, or they make you very, very aware of the "sacrifice" they're making. "Oh, I didn't go to the conference, which could've really helped my career, and I probably won't get the promotion, but that's what you want, right?" 7. Passive-aggressive people procrastinate. They figure out that if they wait long enough, you'll give up and stop bothering them, or youu'll forget the promise they made. They also use procrastination as a way of ignoring problems or avoiding fears. For example, they may find ways to put off a project because they're afraid of failure, or they'll wistfully talk about their dreams but not actually go for them because they want to continue blaming you for "holding them back."
