Question

But how many times do you all do these things? It's so easy to dash off a text or email and have that task behind us.

What about when you need to really reach the person you are communicating with? We all have tools we use to say something a little less harshly than maybe we'd like. We don't want to be seen as that person who is mean spirited or negative. But, let's face it, at times, you have to be that person.

There's often a hairline difference between assertive behavior and aggressive behavior. When is each necessary to communication? And how do you know?

Explanation / Answer

While communicating with epople we often need to convey them something. In normal conditions we do it in a calm manner. But in some certain circumstances we get irritated and angry as the other person is not ready to listen to us. In these conditions we might either shout or control ourselves and speak silently. When the topic is a serious one and the other person is deeply effected by it then we need to be patient and stay calm. But when we are effected by it we generally turn aggressive. We nned to know the situation as our own instints will tell us the situation.Assertive behavious and aggressive behaviour depends on the mental state of the person and the situation and many times we cross that line and turn aggressive.
