No hope at all unless you, too, are passive aggressive and you enjoy this kind of relationship.

Yes,I've been one.

The only hope is that the PA realizes the problem, and deals with it. If se doesn't; the whole thing is a wast of your time.

Yes. Was blood annoying. I am direct and confrontational. So we could never adequately resolve issues because he was avoidant and defensive towards confrontation. Maybe it can work for you though, depending on both of your communication styles and temperaments.

Yes and no future

Yes I have and yes there is hope in those relationships.

However, I would guess probably not for you. If you are asking here then it’s probably bothering you. I suggest you consider how you feel about it, perhaps run it by a professional. If it’s not for you then address it with your partner and see what happens.

Excuse my blatant response. My first introduction into any relationship is that I am not or will ever be anything you want or expect. I worked hard all of my life and overcame many obstacles to which I succeeded by karma and being honest. I never asked anyone what their Zodiac Sign was or if they from a well to do family or saw an Analyst to consult whether or not I was being proper and correct in my proceedings. I can relate to you about the worst sexual experience I ever had and that it was fantastic.
Its what you put into it will be what you get out of it and to just let it take its own path and if you let it go and it comes back to you than its yours. When you get into definitions then your excluding race, color, creed, nationality, territorial nomenclature which are things you may have never experienced. Your looking for someone who cares for you and all your broken parts. No Guarantees or Warranties included. Take it or leave.it.

your obviously not happy so i would say no

Sometimes passive aggressiveness is a defense against religious fanaticism.

No

There isn't much hope that the other person is going to change, if that's what you're asking. There's hope you can put up with your partner's crap, and still find a measure of happiness. There's a very slight hope that they'll mature out of some of that behavior, but there's also a distinct possibility they'll evolve into some other habits that drive you to distraction.

Oh....... Not again!

Oh fer sure, as long as you love abuse, lies,being controlled..unhappiness, its all there the tootal package...

yes - found another partner

I lived with an overt and consistently aggressive (borderline personality) woman for over 30 years. Living with a passive aggressive person would not be as painful as that.

I have heard this expression so much recently and I was never sure exactly what it meant so I looked up a definition as follows -:" passive aggressive behaviour takes many forms but can generally be described as a non-verbal aggression that manifests in negative behaviour. It is where you are angry with someone but do not or cannot tell them. Instead of communicating honestly when you feel upset, annoyed,"

Now I am sure I am going to be shot down here but in my experience women are more likely to .exhibit this type of behaviour than men. Eg the man comes home from work and gets a frosty reception because of some slight, real or imagined and he has no idea what he has done whereas the man is more likely to be overtly aggressive in words or actions..
