And do you know the difference?

And, yes, there is a BIG difference.
If you are assertive, you make yourself heard in a non-confrontational manner.
If you are passively agressive, you keep what you really want to say inside and let it out in a, sometimes, angry manner.
For instance:
I don't like the lady stepping in front of me in line.
SIT 1: I ask her assertively to go to the back.
SIT 2: I key her car later in the parking lot.

I wish I was actively assertive, that is my goal of what I want to be.

some thing like a rubber band, in elementary words opposite. A rubber band lengthens actively (it quite is, it calls for skill to elongate (stretch ) it. yet even as that's released, it passively shortens (through itself, without help from all and various). A muscle cellular actively contracts - meaning it makes use of skill to settlement. The even as it stops contracting, the pressure produced through the contraction causes it to "passively" extend again - through itself.

Life's disappointments are harder to take when you don't know any swear words. And a little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day.

I pretty sure that I'm passive aggressive with momentary touches of active aggression at least in this stage of life. When I was in my teens and early twenties I was definitely actively aggressive with momentary touches of passive aggressiveness. :)
