Passive Vs. Aggressive

I have always been very passive... Just going with the flow. Don't really try to argue when something's not exactly what I would like... I talk in a very relaxed voice (most of the time) and I'm a good listener.....

.....And then, there's my sister. She's full of aggressiveness. Even at (almost) age ten, she still cries and whines every time something's not perfect... For example, just two days ago, she went to McDonalds and she asked for no lettuce, tomatto, pickles, etc... (you know, the rest of the stuff they usually put on a burger).... So, she got her burger and she saw it had everything on it. She yelled out "WHAT! I CAN'T EAT THIS!!" *she threw the burger against the table* "MOM! THIS IS NOT HOW I WANTED IT!!! AAAGGGGHHHHRRR!!!!"

You, of course, can predict that my mom gave her a good talking to after that. That is a very good example of aggressive behavior -well, maybe a little more than a typical example of it...

It's amazing to compare my sister and I as far as attitudes and opinions... It's actually quite a difference... *sigh*

I don't think it's good to be either one of these, but possibly right in the middle. I mean, you can avoid the whining and out-of-controlness (if that's a word), but you don't just go along with what people tell you. You have the ability to make choices for yourself and are good at compromising. And when you don't get the way you want, you don't over-react and just keep your cool =)

Just something running through my head... =)
