Why do people have to be so freaking stubborn?

They tell you how they feel, then be completely rude to you. How do you ignore people like that, if they are just going to be rude?

How do you NOT ignore them?

And is not ignoring them being stubborn?

Sometimes they feel all exposed and vulnerable after telling you're their feelings, and get hurt and angry when they don't think they got the support and comfort they needed.
Sometimes they are just thoughtless.
Sometimes they are depressed and they cover it up by being mean.
Some people are just needy needy needy, and can't give.
It's a wonder when we do get along. Treasure the friends you have who do appreciate you. Tell them how much you appreciate them, how wonderful they are, how much you love them.

Stubbornness is a cover up to save embarrassment. They get angry and be mean and manage to turn the situations to be your fault. You just have to slightly agree with them but at the same time putting your own point across bit by bit otherwise they will not accept what you're saying or doing. Take my advice I have an extremely stubborn girlfriend.
