If you want to know how to react when someone yells at you, there are only a few points you should remember. Thanks to the tips you will find in this article, you will learn how to handle these situations in no time.
Steps
Step 1. Look the person in the eye and keep staring at them
At first it will not be easy, but over time you will get used to it and the other person will back down.
Step 2. If you can't find the courage to look this person straight in the eye (many can't), stare at your feet
Find something that distracts you.
Step 3. Think of a funny feature of your attacker to focus on
It will be easier for you to find courage if you try to grasp the comic side of the situation.
Step 4. If you can find something funny, avoid bursting out laughing, because it would not be a mature way to handle the situation (as indeed the fact that the other person is yelling at you is not)
Advice
- If someone is yelling at you and the situation becomes intolerable, always remember that you can get up and walk away. You don't have to listen to what he says.
- Don't start yelling too. This could lead to a fight between you and, believe it or not, all those screams would make you deaf.
- Try to remain serious, otherwise you will make your interlocutor even more angry.
- You stare at the person without saying anything. If he demands that you give him an answer, do it briefly and concisely.
- If one of your parents yells at you, DO NOT leave the room! Listen to what he has to say and try to argue with him in a civilized way if possible.
- If this happens regularly, try to sever relationships with this person if possible.
- Don't burst out laughing in his face. You would only make things worse.
- Don't blink when you stare at him. Just like in the animal kingdom, the person who blinks first proves to be the weakest one.
