i think everyone has the right to stand up for themselves. whoever said to 'ignore people' when they insult you to your face or treat you bad period was stupid. basically, when you ignore someone who treats you badly, you're leading them to believe that you're intimidated by them (which you might be). also, you're letting them know it's acceptable to insult you. they lose respect for you and they will continue to be disrespectful. i used to 'ignore' people when they treated me like this, but then i realized it didn't work. they still kept treating me that way, so i decided to get buck with any motherf#cker who wants to try me. i feel so much better about myself, and later on, i don't wind up wishing i had said something. people say that when you ignore someone, you're showing them you're not worried about them. i feel like if it really isn't bugging you, then don't stand up for yourself. however, i feel better when i've said something.
