Difficult People: Strategies of Dealing with Difficult Personalities and Relationships
You're about to discover how to deal with toxic people in your life. While the rest of this book will be covering specific situations and ways to deal with difficult people, there is one very important thing that must be covered first and that is your responsibility in any situation.
The first thing I want to cover is how often are you meeting up with difficult people. If it is happening to you all the time then there is something very important that you are going to want to consider and I hope that I don't offend you, but it is the truth. If it is happening all the time then maybe you are a major part of the problem. Yes, I did say that. My goal is to help you, not give you something that will just tickle your ears and make you feel good. If you find that you are in conflict all the time then as you read this book look at yourself and see if you recognize yourself in any the toxic people that will be described.
If you find one that you see yourself in then you have taken the first step to healing and becoming an easier to get along with person. Many times people are difficult to get along with because of hurts, pains, abuse and other things that happened in tough childhood. They become difficult to get along with as a way of protecting themselves from being hurt more. They also don't really like themselves, so they hurt others as a way of making themselves feel better. The only problem is that it doesn't work and in the end they become more and more hurt and more and more difficult to get along with. Now if this isn't you then be thankful because you are in a pretty good place emotionally and you are truly just dealing with difficult people on their end.

Actually rather good, filled with sensible, useful advice (and even the note that in certain situations, you should seek professional help...)
Does need a look-over by an editor, there were a few awkward sentences and typos.
Wish I had read this sooner...

Maintain boundaries, don't take anything personally, let go off toxic people - toxic people are those whose presence in your life makes you unhappy and uncomfortable. Simple language. Good book!

Growing up in Tirunelveli, India. I'd never encountered people commenting on this.
Perhaps, as it is a collectivistic culture? People talk about this within families.
Regardless, does this apply the same in non-Western countries? I have no answer, maybe you can respond.
But then again, everyone who wants to grow, ought to ask curious questions to help them manage relationships.
In Tamil Nadu, India, this book would be useful to guard against, constant gossip from friends, jealousy, synthetic friendship, agelast relatives.
A Friend from New York City was chatting about relationships and people in our lives. Most of the time, we men want to do work, take responsibility, eat and sleep. We don't think much about characters, gossip, relationships. It doesn't interest to most Men. Regardless, this is necessary for our lives.
We meet numerous people throughout our lives. With some, we get connected, with some, we leave dejected — Why? Perhaps, we are not able to judge characters.
This book gives, outline for types of people.
The first thing, I do is to look for the characters, and put myself in them. Most of the time, there will be something, that I can work on and improve myself.
The core problem of all types of people stems from, low self-esteem.
Many are not aware or won’t acknowledge they behave in such a way. Their behavior roots from, how life handled them, with hurts, trauma.
I thought, that’s great; but wish, the author had wrote ways, how these following type of people can work on improving themselves to healthier relationships.
Outline of the book:
1) Self Centered Person
2) Control Freak Person
3) Disruptive Person
4) Dramatic Person
5) Clingy and Needy
6) Complainers
7) Jealous
8) Person with no boundaries
9) Overly competitive person
10) Truly Toxic People
The solution to all the above, the author suggests is to enforce boundaries, limit contact.
If you’ve not familiar with type of people, characters, I’d recommend this book.
Perhaps, reading this would give you a template of behaviors, and then, you’d be able to pick up, how to manage relationships around you.
I’d recommend this to everyone.
Overall — a simple, easy book to read.

Great information.
I've enjoyed reading this book. It contains a lot of information and taught me new techniques to handle difficult people. It also showed me my mirror, I personally, am a difficult person and didn't know. Thanks for the many lessons!

My thoughts
I thoroughly enjoyed the information. That was given in this book. Lots of good ideas in dealing with people that just want to make your life miserable, due to the things in the past and the guilts, pain, sorrow and sometimes the feelings of inadequacies you feel in your self. I would suggest everyone reading this book. Everyone has at least one person they deal with daily that some of the ideas written in here may help with. Where at the same time, you can if truthfully looking at ones self may find ways that we may also change to help different relationships we come in contact with in all walks of our lives.
