Softie vs. Pushover

Filed under Sentimental Thoughts.

People have made mistakes confusing a softie with a pushover. Here are the more obvious differences.

  • Softies know when people are trying to take advantage but will try to understand first before they btch slap the offender. Pushovers just let them be taken advantage of because it’s easier than resisting.
  • Softies will take a joke in stride, whether directed at her or not, and add an appreciative gesture by reciprocating with a tasteful joke. Pushovers will thank you for not putting the joke on them, but silently wonders if the joke’s on them after all.
  • Softies think, pushovers don’t.
  • Softies will let you get away with a mean remark every once in a while and justifies them for you. Pushovers will let you get away with a mean remark all the time because they don’t know how to handle confrontation.
  • Softies are tactful when pointing out mistakes. Pushovers will not point out mistakes.

So, are you a softie or a pushover?
