Seven Signs of Animosity

Sometimes we meet people who don't like us and they make no secret of it. Other times we meet people who don't necessarily make their thoughts or feelings known but show us their animosity through their behaviour, attitudes and body language.

This video looks at seven hidden signs that someone one harbors animosity, holds a grudge or just doesn't like us.

The blessing of getting old is you just truly don"t care. 😂

Funny thing about getting older, our eyesight may weaken but we can see right through people.

Remember, the way someone treats you says more about them than it does about you.

[carmelcurran]

It doesn't matter if someone doesn't like you. People don't need a good reason to dislike you. It is usually a problem within themselves.

1. Passive Aggressive Behaviour, Subtle Mockery, Gossip, Complaints behind your Back, Rumours, Character Assassination
2. They have a lack of interest in you
3. They invite everyone else, except you, you are excluded, ignore your contributions
4. Constant Criticism, finding fault
5. Negative Body Language, turn away from you, rolled eyes,
6. Unnecessary or Unwarranted Competition
7. Undermine you at every turn

[wyattcreighton]

Just don't care. Don't let someone else steal your joy.

[Run.Ran.Run]

People are just simply too much work and more often than not, not worth it.
Lower your expectations, keep mainly to yourself, cultivate your loving relationships and minimize your contact with the rest. Don't waste time analyzing them. They're not interesting.

I heard a saying years ago people will like you no matter what you do and some people will Never like you no matter what you do"....

[ladyhartofficial]

I just assume everyone doesn’t like me so I’m pleasantly surprised when they actually do 😂

[Buddycoop]

True friends don't get nasty the minute something goes well for you. Lots of jealous people out there.

I have been hated by my boss. I sued and got quite a settlement. By the way I was a civil servant working there and an Army Reservist. I was deployed because of 9/11 and she was so annoyed I was going to be gone. I couldn’t believe it when on my last day she came into my office and said “when you get back I’m going to fire you. “ She said if “you’re too emotional” about this you can leave early because I know you are upset.” I couldn’t care less about what she was going to do. While deployed I filed a grievance with employer support of guard and reserve. I also hired an attorney. She lost. Ha ha ha!

Once I clock this behaviour, I minimise my interactions to neccesary ones only

[rickchandler]

Being retired, I don’t suffer fools. If someone treats me how I don’t like, I simply never talk to that person again.

[Sundayjean]

I use to be nice to everyone, but over time, decades really, I saw how people were only using me and there was no reciprocity. That’s when I began to set serious boundaries on who and how I will engage with others.

[sheilaking]

I lost two jobs due to bullying in the workplace, it took me a longtime to realise it was born out of jealousy. I’ve realised people either like me or they don’t.

My sister gave me some good advice, she said ‘if they can’t take the time to get to know you, they’re not worth knowing’.

[MaxinesTrunk]

Narcissist are extremely immature. And demeaning behavior towards their target is obvious. What I don’t understand is how others in a group stand by and watch, listen and not call them out.

[consciouscitizen]

As a people pleaser, it’s so hard to accept others contempt for me when I am friendly, polite and interested/engaged in conversation with them. It’s hard not to take it personally, even though I know it’s ‘their’ stuff

[jeffreyjackson]

"Common reasons are envy and jealousy"- Exactly.

It's sad that I actually detected that from my now deceased father, but I know why: narcissism.

Thank you.

I just went through this last week. My friend asked if her friend could stay at my house with her the night before we all went to a funeral for a mutual friend. We talked until 2am which she was quick to complain about the following day. She smirked at me often during our conversation and I felt no warmth from her even when I hugged her goodby when she and her boyfriend were leaving. She did not thank me for hosting her or driving to the funeral and paying for her dinner. I will definately think twice before hosting her again. Graciousness goes a long way in my book. I feel it is wrong to use people let alone people you do not like.

Years ago I was a new nurse in a hospital. I remember feeling judged, excluded, talked down to, and generally unwelcome by most. After three years all of the sudden I was in the club and people completely changed their behavior towards me. When I asked a friend about this she told me of the famous saying “nurses eat their young.” She said that they expected me to earn their regard by paying my dues. I thought this was such a horrible way to treat another human being that I not only never warmed towards them but went out of my way to be kind to new nurses and travel nurses. I’ve seen this kind of behavior in almost every place I have worked and it is despicable. I attributed it to nurses but can’t seem from the comments here that it’s true everywhere.
