What is Passive Aggressive Behavior?
For a thorough explanation of Passive Aggressive Behavior, click on "Passive Aggressive Behavior" in the black bar above.“Getting Out”
"While it might be a mistake to give up on a relationship with a passive-aggressive man until all avenues for change have been explored, at some point, you must cut your losses. ..... To stay in a relationship that is harmful to you is not only pointless but self-destructive. This is one of the unfortunate costs of passive aggression: conflicts all too quickly escalate to the point where getting out is your only choice."
