Frequently asked questions
3. Kill Them with Kindness
Did someone leave you a nasty tweet? Respond with an unexpectedly nice tweet. Is someone being a real pain in the a** at work? Bring them cookies. If nothing else, you'll leave them really, really, confused.
4. Confront Them
I usually avoid confrontation at all costs, but sometimes there's no escaping it. Have an honest talk with your hater and try to get to the root of what their problem is. It may or may not work but it's worth a shot.
5. Don't Interact with Them More than You Have to
There's no need for that kind of negativity in your life.
