HURTFUL NEGATIVE BEHAVIOR # 8 - HOSTILITY

HOSTILITY or HOSTILE BEHAVIOR is attacking behavior in any form not mentioned in previous blogs.

Hostility or hostile behavior can occur in intimate relationships, in family relationships, in workplace relationships... frankly, even in non-personal situations where no relationship exists, other than on a very superficial level. An example of the latter may be one person disrespecting another, or even getting into a traffic accident with someone who is driving a new car.

Hostility can exist between people who have had previous arguments or altercations. Hostility can exist between people when one feels he or she has been treated unfairly. Hostility can exist in the workplace, in the home, between friends or intimate partners, or between family members. And this hostility can carry on for years. Perhaps you know of individuals who have not spoken to friends or relatives, or others, because they had an argument with them before, sometimes years before. When asked what the argument was about years before, they cannot even remember.
