I've tired that as a younger man & all I can say is Good Luck with that 😂 You'll get burnt the fuck out pretty quick if you deal with alot of people and mustering up the anger to "put them in they're place"...alot of times it doesn't work either. If somebody doesn't want to respect you they will keep it up in my experience until it gets very ugly. So just walking away & never seeing those ppl again is the best answer. If your at work then report it. The chronic stress of getting mad at ppl & being anxious all these years has given me a heart condition at 32..its not worth fighting for your respect unless it's a situation where you can't leave. Because that's a shitty negative way to live.
