Question

What should I do to stop a stupid and narrow minded person forcing her idea without hurting her feeling?

Answer 1

You may not be able to.

I'd tell them, "What you choose to believe is your right and your choice; just as what I choose to believe is mine. This is something we cannot agree on, and it needs to be dropped now. I'll be your friend, no matter what. I hope you feel the same way. But, if you continue trying to change who I am, it will put a strain on our relationship."  

Answer 2

I think if this is causing you anxiety you should try to add some parameters areound your conversations.  For instance, you both have to be calm and courteous to each other and if one of you is not enjoying the conversation, it is appropriate to change the subject.  Be honest about your anxiety.  Use I statements do not accuse her of doing something to you.  Explain how you feel when she does _______.  If you cannot find a way to enjoy the relationship it may be time to create some additional space between you.

Answer 3

just let it go ignore it if you feel you cant say anything with out hurting her feelings

if shes really that anoying ssay nicely thats what you think ? thats your opioion and just move on

Answer 4

Your low opinion will be hard to conceal.

If you are at work all you have to say is, I'm busy doing my job.

Why are you concerned with feelings if you are going into a public forum calling names?

Perhaps she is not stupid and narrow-minded but has a level of expertise with regard to what you are finding offensive.  

I believe the name caller is the person actually describing themselves.

Grow up.

Answer 5

Give her a different option or say 'hey thats a little over the top' and explain why and how it might hurt another person..And if she's that stupid and narrow minded I wouldn't say she had many feelings lol

Answer 6

Hey, u reminded me of my past experience..u know what's worst, I had been living with that person for almost 2 years..

Ok, I dumped that person,,I made my points but wth, that person's still a narcissistic bigoted creature..Seriously, u can't do nothing bout it without hurting urself.."confront that person and tell the truth"
