Recently, we at Psych2Go released a list of the 5 signs of a passive-aggressive person. If you don’t know what those signs are, you can check the list out HERE.
Since that list was posted, many of you have had some questions! Namely,
Is this list an attack on introverted people?
Is there a way for passive-aggressive people to handle conflict better?
The answers, respectively, are absolutely not, and yes! Passive-aggression is not the way all introverts handle conflict, nor is it exclusive to introverts – extroverts and ambiverts can be passive-aggressive too. How can you not be passive-aggressive? Be assertive instead!
Yes, the word may sound a little scary to some of us who have trouble handling conflict face-to-face. But there is a difference between assertiveness and aggressiveness or being overly confrontational.
In this article, we’ll be taking a look at aggressive, passive and assertive communication styles, and using the best features of each to help you learn how to communicate better!
Aggressive Communication
Whether aggression is passive or open, it never helps a situation when it is used.
Aggressive communicators are unwilling to understand the views of others and are unwilling to compromise out of a need to have things done their way.
