I dont know about anyone else, but people suck. They lie, cheat, manipulate to get what they want....EVERYDAY. Theres no avoiding it, its going to happen no matter where you go, work, friends, church, whatever. So, someone please tell me what is the best way of avoiding people by not hurting them but not socially isolating yourself also?

well, here are a few things ive learned...
1. dont sweat the small stuff - very important for a happy, drama free existence
2. it it doesnt feel right it isnt right - if you just get a weird vibe from someone from the beginning, listen to that, and avoid them in the future
3. pick your battles - by keeping your cool about things you would normally go nuts over.... it makes you a much less stressful person....
4. if you catch someone in a lie - GAME OVER
hope this helps!!

not everyone is like that. you're over-generalizing. from a psychological standpoint, i'd say it sounds like you've been hurt repeatedly over a short period of time and are just angry and frustrated. there is no way to avoid all people without socially isolating yourself. you can avoid hurtful people by being cautious before getting to close to someone.

It sounds to me like you have recently dealt w/ the wrong kind of people. Not all people are bad. Granted, a good number of them can be, but you just have to find those good-hearted people out there. You just cant give up on humanity as a whole, you'll never make it through life with that attitude!

When I need to be around or have to be around (like co-workers) people like that, I just say only what i have to to them like talk about a task at work or something and NOTHING else! Then you are not being rude, still gettting what you need to do done but you don't have to act like you like them or your best friends!

It cant be done. Unfortunately we have to live with it. People do suck and I learned that when I was quite young and people have continued to prove me right since then.

Don't answer the phone! Don't subject yourself to be forced into doin anything you don't want to do. Don't volunteer for anything. Become a hermit.

It's life. You also got to remember that there are also people that don't lie, cheat, or manipulate. Like me. But I do fib a little. We are all human. You lie to I bet.

you can never win. you will either isolate yourself or you will have to deal with stupid humans. i personally enjoy the company of goats at least you know what they are about.
