I used to think sarcastic people were fun. Apparently, I am a quite different now than when I was 14. What I have recently noticed is that sarcastic people are usually expressing themselves in a highly negative way. Who truly enjoys negativity? Do people really seek out incredibly negative? I certainly don't. I think negativity is tied to anger.
I came across an article with an excerpt from W Robert Nay, PhD. Apparently there are some signs to anger (he was referring to partners in a relationship, but I think this can be applicable in all situations, platonic, romantic, other, etc):
- Witholding - conversation or affection
- Sarcasm
- Contempt
- Name calling
So, if you meet someone like this...RUN.
