No. Unfortunately that is one of the reasons, why I'm not very popular among certain "better people", with whom I have had the lovely chance to getting acquainted with. Seriously, generals and other high ranking blokes are usually a-holes, except for a couple of cases. Even some of them have zany humor and spark in them.

I simply don't feed into it. It can be frustrating for them, but action through inaction is a hard thing to get around.

Patience has certain limits, and for those who are on the wrong side of the fence, it can be a very "painful matter".

Well, I would rather speak of arrogant behaviour.

For some, it is their own vulnerability, which they are trying to hide, and for others, it is a question of controlling and abusing other people.

I don't pretend that I am patient or better than others, but I think that if this behaviour is unusual for people you know, you will either ask what's wrong, or arrange for another moment to talk.

Girls and women (and with them children of both genders) from the lower and middle classes are still expected to keep a low profile and to look for solutions with other women with similar interests, whether in organisations, self-help groups or to consult psychologists, or even learn more about human behaviour.

Depending on the situation, you can either try to talk, find out what's wrong, allow yourself and the arrogant one a break or a "time out", ignore an occasional "slip", or, if there is no sense, bang the door or even call for help, if the situation degenerates.

By the way:

On-line contacts may involve more patience, as it is not easy to know much about the friends and acquaintances, and private matters should not be exposed. But we can learn a lot about how they feel and, sometimes, lend a ready ear. And before taking certain measures, it is always useful to ask a friend for advice or for a second advice.
