How Do You Treat People You Dislike?

I prefer not to stir up unnecessary conflict. If someone makes a direct attack on me or someone close to me (or make an attack on someone in my presence), be it physically or verbally, then I will stand up for myself (or the other person), however if they can keep their own personal feelings in check, then so can I.

I tend to stay clear of people I don't like if I can help it, but whenever I am forced to be in their vincinity (whether it is working with them or attending some social gathering where they are present) I prefer to keep a polite tone, because the day tends to be more pleasant if we can just manage to get along for however many hours we need to interact. I tend to know where I have people, if they are people who like/accept me, tolerate me or cannot stand me. And as long as I know where I have a person, then I am perfectly capable of filtering the things said to me or in my presence.

There are people who have hurt me (especially people from my school days) and if I ever were to encounter them, I'd probably just ignore them as much as I can. Because thing is, if those people have grown up and are feeling bad for the hell they put me through, I honestly don't feel like listening to their apologies, because a couple of words aren't going to undo the damage they did. And if they don't feel bad, then I really have no interest in being in their presence whatsoever. Thankfully I've managed to mostly stay clear of my past bullies (it helps to have moved to a completely different town and only coming back for 1-2 weeks at a time), and I hope to keep it that way. I don't think I'd confront them about it, I just prefer to stay clear of them and instead seek out those few individuals who didn't make me go through a living hell.

I can get along with alot of people. Though if you are one of the few that I don't like then I will just ignore you. if you wronged me in any sort of way then you will know the next time you try to act nice to me because I will call you out lol.
I like to tell it like it is. call a fart a fart!
I like being nice though, but If I don't like you you will know lol.

I act calmly towards them. If I have to pair up with them for a project, I'll ask the teacher if we can switch partners. If not, I try my best not to start an argument, cuz that's not worth my time.

It depends. If I dislike them, I will ignore them as much as possible, but if they're actively doing something I don't like, I usually unintentionally let slip with some sarcastic comment. I admit I can be a real biotch sometimes, but sometimes people need to be told haha. If I really really dislike them, I will usually just avoid them at all costs. I don't talk about people behind their back, but if conflict arises I have a big mouth haha :)
