Want respect? How to politely say 'Don't talk to me like that', as per psychology

It is often said that communication is the key for any relationship to thrive-- be it personal or professional. But if it isn't respectful, then there's no way the relationship could stand the test of time. If you find someone talking down to you, then here we list some ways to set verbal boundaries and command respect, in a professional manner. #respect #politely #039Don039t #talk…

Already this week I have:

1. #Politely turned down #work because the contract took too long to materialise and it was stressing me

2. #Politely asserted my position when my flagging of an #AIGenerated reference list was deemed "forensic" and "perfectionist"

3. #Politely asked for understanding when being told what to wear to a friend's #wedding

Is it OK to spend the rest of the week un-biting my tongue now please, it is very very sore
