    Honestly this seems like the best way to deal with someone being passive aggressive. If they have a problem make them actually say something.

      I fully agree. It’s not always intentional, because sometimes I do pick up on it (probably the non native language + work makes it just impossible to get in the moment from her), but I almost always pretend not to, and it generally defuses the situation pretty well.

      I’m also a crier, so the alternative is not great

        No I changed my mind next time you should start balling. Like the ugly kind of crying that makes it hard for others to look.

      I do this on purpose. I also ignore all the signs that someone’s taking to me “just to be nice”. If you’re nice, then you’re nice. If you’re just pretending to be nice, suck it up cuz it’s working.
