I tried to create a boundary but she disrespected by making fun of me and calling me a snowflake. I didn’t want to talk about the problem of what she was annoyed of.
I drank a cup of wine and after an hour, I felt sober and wanted to go home. She told me in a joking manner that I would crash and die. Two other people in shock asked her why she would say that, I responded in the same way.
I’m so used to her making those witty and petty comments. I know she dislikes me. I know she favors others. She reminds me of past friends who used to make fun of me and never took me seriously.
I always felt like I had to impress her or to be well-liked. She favors others and laughs at things that are rude to me.
How do I deal with someone who disrespects me periodically?

you dont say who you’re talking about, so if its a family member or co-worker you probably cant avoid them, but if not then just dont have anything to do with her. who needs it? why keep letting her do that to you?
if you cant avoid her then just learn to silence your own reaction to her. understan that people who do this have serious insecurities. the only way they know to build themselves up is to put others down. dont engage in the petty criticisms. just give her a blank condescending stare, shrug it off, and think to yourself “i simply dont care what you say any more, because it’s always been crap, and it always will be.”
people like that thrive on getting a negative emotional reaction from others.
