The walking out tactic


In P Square’s voice, “I bring it back again.”

Aside from living my life, I try as much as possible not to get angry at anyone. Well, I don’t trust what I could say or do when I’m angry.

I can remember over 15 years ago when I broke a bottle and try to injure a fellow teenager for repeatedly doing something I don’t like. I didn’t succeed in injuring the guy but I felt remorse afterwards.

Fast forward some years, remember the work place I got fired from. Back then, I was staying with an older cousin.

There’s this day, I got back from work at about 11pm only for my cousin to accuse me of what I knew nothing about.

Imagine getting home after a 14-hour shift, only for someone to try to get on your nerves.

I got home this faithful day, cleaned up and was about crashing when she called my attention. There were accusation upon accusations but I was tired and now I’m getting angry, I just did what I knew was the best thing to do at the moment: walked out.

Yes, it was disrespectful but that’s the only thing I could do at that point in order to avoid me going all out and she giving me back, hot hot.

Better safe than sorry, they say.

In recent time, I’ve had someone get me pissed that I just avoided getting into the same vehicle with the same person.

When I’m angry, I just keep quiet or walk away, just to avoid story that tough. One thing I have always try to avoid over the years is doing something that would make me to apologise.

Believe me, I woke up in the morning following the night I walked out on my cousin and greeted her. She never expected it. Well, I have slept on it.

I was at work that day when I got a call from home: I have been reported. I told the person on the other end that it was just the best thing I could do at that point.

What do you do when you are angry? Kindly share with the class 😉

One response to “The walking out tactic

  1. I doubt that I have certain actions for what I do when I’m angry.

    I know I visibly shake
    Sometimes I remain silent
    Other times I lash out
    There are also times I plot a revenge.
