Hurt feelings between people can be very upsetting. How should you respond when someone comes to you complaining about being“put down”or insulted by someone else?

Psychologist Jack Canfield has a good suggestion. Say to the complainer,“Suppose I were to say,‘Joe, you have green hair.'Would that make you feel bad?”

He'll probably reply,“No.”

Ask,“Why not?”

His likely reply:“Because I know I don't have green hair.”

You say,“So What I say to you needn't affect how you feel. What you believe about yourself is more important.”

Add,“What if I say,‘Joe, you are mean and selfish'?That statement can only hurt you if you have doubts about whether you really are mean and selfish. If you are clear that you are a warm, generous person, then you won't be hurt because you know what I saidisn't true.”

“Anytime you feel upset about what someone says about you, or something you do, it's because at some level you doubt yourself in that area.”

“If someone says, in effect,‘You have green hair'and you know you don't, there's no problem.”

“If there's some truth in what the person says, view it as feedback or information you can use for self-improvement.”

Suggestion:When people feel insulted, tell this story and ask if they have green hair.

人与人之间的感情受到伤害时,总会心烦意乱。当别人向你抱怨他受到“羞辱”或被别人侮辱时,你该怎样回应他呢?

心理学家杰克·坎菲尔德有一个很好的建议,即对抱怨者说:“如果我对你说,‘乔,你长绿头发了。’你会感到难过吗?”

他的回答可能会是“不”。

如果你再问他:“为什么呢?”

他的回答可能是这样:“因为我知道自己不会长绿头发。”

这样,你就可以说:“所以,我的话并没有影响到你,最重要的是你对自己的看法。”
