How to you handle begrudgers and their begrudging ways?

I pinch their ass and smile.;)
Actually I keep contact with people that wish me harm to a minimum

Not on a regular basis, which I wouldn’t allow but, I work for and know one other that can have their moments.
I think it’s all about management. lol
I wish I could be really emotionally honest with a few others, but, it would never work, so I have learned to just detach myself emotionally, and, pay attention to the red flags the first time I see them.

We all intuit who might be ‘safe’ to confront, and after awhile, unless it is a really important relationship, you just stop trying and detatch. It always feels right when that is the right thing to do, so, you’ll know it when it happens. Sometimes we tell the person exactly ‘why’ we are choosing to let them go.

Follow your intuition, and, don’t waste your energy of those that cannot hear you.

They would no longer be in my group of friends.

I talk to them about it…if that doesn’t change it, then give them time to work it out for themself.

When it’s on Fluther, I “unfollow” them. If I haven’t “followed” them to begin with, I simply decline to respond to their posts. I now have one jelly I officially ignore (not bad, considering how things can go here). ; o )

In real life, I try once to talk to them and sort things out. Lacking that, I avoid them whenever possible.

When I was in the Army. “Beware of the Ides of March” is what a coworker told me one afternoon while was in my office and placed a yellow sticky note on my desk and walked out. The note said meet me at the soda pop machines in 5 minutes. HA! This has got to be good I thought. I turned out that 2 subordinates and my boss (a 2nd LT) were plotting against me. It was no surprise. I stifled their pot by working twice as hard to achieve excellence at the same time submitting my retirement papers. That was the worst place that I had ever worked but I had the last laugh!

I just leave em. If I did do something that warrants such behaviour, I will apologize or try to rectify the matter. But if it’s some ego trip bullshit, I got other things to do.
Not that it’s my intention, but not reacting usually pisses em off even more. But I’ve learned that if you ignore people like this, they end up making a fool of themselves in front of other people who may have initially believe all the bad stuff they might say about you, or believed you were an asshole based on the begrudger’s behaviours.
Lack of confirmation for grand claims and such can go a long way to be deemed as bullshit, especially when it is.

I don’t hang around haters.

I recently had one come to my attention within my friend group and I, after trying to work it out with her, cut her loose.

There’s too much drama in life without having friends add to it.

I do….I make sure there is at least a very expensive tank of gas between me and them! ;)

I begrudge them their begrudging.

duh
