It seems like every word that comes out of thier mouth is just putting people down, they never seem happy and they just argue non stop about everything even if they have nothing to argue about they try to put words in your mouth or bring up something that happen 10 years ago to argue about, Ugh what makes this tough is its a family member so when I try to talk to them about it they tell me to just shut up. whats the best way to deal with this person?

Some people just don't want to be happy. Period. So they keep the unhappiness rolling by constantly causing strife, putting people down, and just being unpleasant. I put people like this at arms length and deal with them on my terms only. Even if they are family. Don't put yourself in a position where you feel you have to argue, afterall that is just fueling their fire.

The Bible says in Proverbs13:10 "Only by pride cometh contention."
Proverbs 26:4 "Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him."

sometimes saying nothing is best. makes the other person wonder why you are so quiet. :)
some people are spiteful and full of bitterness towards a certain person or people, they feel arguing ans hurling bad verbal words to you are their way of hurting you.
let them be and say nothing.

it is because they have a low self-esteem about themselves so they bring people down who they think are doing better and have more than they have to make themselves feel better. well that and because they always think that they are right no matter what and that they have no life. hope this helps. good luck.

Ignore them, if they could they'd argue with themselves.

You stay as far away from them as possible.
