how to tell someone off
<|assistant|>
Telling someone off doesn't necessarily require being rude. You can do it assertively and respectfully by being direct and specific: "When you speak to me like that, it makes me feel ___" or "When you act that way, I need you to know it upsets me because I care about our relationship". You can also give a definitive response, "I don't appreciate that". A simple non verbal cue such as shaking your head or giving a firm dismissive wave can also work. Being direct and assertive with a softened tone can also make it more powerful. Whatever approach you choose, the key is that it be honest and tailored to your situation.
