Instinctually the first reaction I have when some one pushesmybuttons is to push back.

I try to let the push come and absorb it rather than fight it.

Calm.

Is 'Calm' your real name? It's so Zen.
 
I don't really get angry. I get disgusted. Calm is a mantra that does not always work for me...
 
I know what you mean, ksmybuttons. I have a habit of taking myself far too seriously, and it shows in my reactions to people. I say mean things at the drop of a hat to minor insults.
 
It really depends on who's doing the pushing and how i feel about them.

I'll let you get away with a lot more if i know you and believe in you. If you continually push at me about something and i've told you before it hurts me, then you're probably not going to be around to push my buttons anymore.

I certainly agree with you there, morninggirl. I find it is not so much with hurt as with ignorant behavior, generalizations and name calling. Evokes my disdain.

Ahhh, i'm a champion ignorer when it comes to those.... unless it's directed at someone i care about.
 
I have found the people most able to push my buttons are the ones who installed them...My family and my soon to be EX husband.
