Is it true that Passive Aggressive behaviors can increase dramatically during the holidays?
Emotions are running higher for both a passive-aggressive person and for you which makes his defense system kick into overdrive and turns you into an easier target.
Love, hope, and family are the focus this time of year sending a passive-aggressive person’s abandoned inner child into a tailspin of need and fear. With parties to attend, mistletoe to stand under, dinners for you to the hostess and extra tasks for you to need support on, someone with passive-aggressive behavior has many opportunities to take out his anxiety and confusion on you through hurt, neglect, and humiliation.
