I relaxed last night by watching the 2nd Bridget Jones film – Edge of Reason. One scene involved Bridget and her three friends trying to avoid an acquaintance who they called “the jellyfish”.
What followed in the film was a barbed exchange between ‘the jellyfish’ and Bridget.
The synchronicity of watching the film after starting this blog urged me to think about how to respond to such people. Do you?:
A smile and count to 10
B bite back!
C make a joke
D just be happy that you’re more optimistic than they are
Answers as a comment please.
Hmmm.. might depend on the jellyfish but I think these days I'd probably choose C) make a joke. In a previous life, I'd probably have chosen B) and bitten back but I am trying to make it to D) and just be happy! And you??
