Have you ever been punched?: WEEK 263

I can even tolerate a lot of things until they humiliate me, but there is a red line called family and if you mess with one of my loved ones I turn into a lioness and I can attack you in any way, I'm not saying it's right, but it's how I am and unfortunately I have slapped and hit and been hit and said things I shouldn't have said and when it comes to defending my own I don't think much and I get carried away by emotions and that's what I take with me. Having some problems

The last altercation I had was a few years ago with a neighbor that I don't know why, but mutually. We don't like each other, we have nothing in common. she is extroverted and loud. i am introverted, i have very few friends and i don't know why, but she seems that everything is a competition, that she has to live comparing who has this and who has that. i am not for that nonsense. and as we have friends in common, we have crossed paths several times, but evidently she was talking to me out of hypocrisy because behind my back she talks bad about me or makes up gossip and then she is a good person. of course we shouldn't give credence to the stories spread by bitter old spinsters who don't know who to make their lives bitter to feel important. but that didn't matter to me, there will always be people who talk bad about us, whether we are good or bad. they are people with no job, no life of their own, with a lot of free time to talk about others. i have a very solid character, and i ignored her, this lady started talking about my oldest son, about his physical appearance, and that was something i couldn't tolerate.

Because children develop their resilience over the years, but using my son to hurt me is the lowest, that really upset me, so I went to her house and faced her, I told her it was the last time she messed with my son and one thing led to another and we ended up hitting each other, she grabbed me by the hair, I did too. we lasted for a while until other neighbors separated us. I know I reacted badly, but unfortunately there are people you can't talk to with words and although I know it's bad advice, at some point in our lives we will have to raise our voices, throw a punch and fight to draw a line. I say this from experience, when you stand up to someone they respect you and see you in a different light. There are people who think you are going to put up with their taunts and insults for the rest of your life.
