    Ok I have a friend, or should that be, I think I have a friennd who is classic passive agressive.

    They have all the traits. They are your best friend one day and the next they are pure sour with you. When you ask them what the matter is they come up with something trivial and make it sound as though you tore their world asunder. What is most distressing is stonewalling for no particular reason.

    Iam normally a strong person and were it anybody else I would have told them to sling their hook,but i care deeply for this person and their behaviour it really hurts

    How exactly does one deal with someone like this? Should one bite the bullet and say enough is enough? That sounds too cruel a thing to do to a friend but one cannot take much more

    A friend doesn't play mind games or go out to make themselves feel better at the other's expense, but how I deal with that kind of behaviour is to take them at their word if they say everything is ok and just take my leave when they get unreasonable. Don't reward the behaviour and they may behave differently around you.
