Who
or
what
is
a
difficult
person?
It’s
anyone
who
leaves
you
feeling
upset
or
let
down,
frustrated
or
angry,
humili-
ated
or
confused,
drained
or
despairing.
A
difficult
person
can
be
someone
who
behaves
in
an
exploitative
or
unethical
manner;
they
may
be
someone
who
creates
a
sense
of
distrust
because
they
avoid
saying
what
they
really
think
or
feel.
A
difficult
person
may
be
someone
who
refuses
to
cooper-
ate
with
you.
They
may
avoid
taking
responsibility
and
duck
out
of
commitments.
A
difficult
person
can
also
be
someone
who
is
negative
and
critical;
they
find
fault
easily
without
offering
any
con-
structive
or
helpful
alternatives.
Whether
it’s
a
manager
who
keeps
moving
the
goalposts,
an
uncooperative
colleague
or
the
difficult-to-please
client,
your
negative
friend,
sarcastic
brother-in-law,
critical
par-
ent
or
the
infuriating
person
at
a
call
centre,
they
all
have
one
thing
in
common:
they
can
be
difficult
to
deal
with.
There
are
probably
times
when
you
wonder
how
an
encounter
can
go
awry
so
quickly;
you
start
to
