my oh is passive aggressive


He says yes.....but never gets around to it so what he really meant was no but by saying yes he gets away with seeming as if he is passive......by not doing it, is the aggressive .......

Forgive my waffle......I am on a touch keyboard and it has a mind of it's own

passive-aggressive behavior,
n behavior that reflects hostility or resentment through indirect nonviolent means, such as procrastination, inefficiency, forgetfulness, and stubbornness.

Is stubbornness 'passive- aggressive'?

lol I was once told by my then regional manager that I was stubborn... but I wasn't, it was just that I was right and he was wrong :-D
