how do i write (in this lj, specifically) about something someone said that's bugging me without being passive-agressive about it? i'm not really angry, just need to vent a little, and i don't want to name the person because it's not really relevant who said the things, just that they were said. but at the same time, i feel like if i write and describe the situation, the person may feel either attacked or overly apologetic, neither of which is my intent. perhaps this entry works as a disclaimer? heh. i don't know.

It's your journal; write what you like.

Also, being passive-aggressive can be better than being aggressive-aggressive, as long as you know that whoever you're really targeting can take the hint.

it's my journal, but other people read it. unless i make an entry private, i have to consider that my words are out there for people to see. i agree that i am entitled to write whatever i want, but i also want to balance that with not being hurtful to a friend.
