I accidentally told this guy to shut up?
Possibly because he's sensitive, things people say and sometimes expecially when someone from the other sex say things rude. It can really lower someone's self esteam. It's kind of a phase some go trough. I went through it. The best thing you can do is just tell him that you're sorry and didn't really mean it. He will take your apology to heart and forgive you.
Substitute teacher accidently says shut up?
I'm a sub and I worked with a 5th grade class that had a few disruptive kids. I struggled to keep three in particular to focus and stop disrupting the class. Towards the end of the day, as I was going to answer the class telephone; The problem kids kept talking and I asked them several times to be quiet. Then I heard one problem kid call another student a name and without thinking I said, "shut up." I didn't yell it I just said it. I've never said anything like this to a student before it was an accident. Can I get in trouble for this??
Is it rude to tell someone to shut up?
The words "shut up" are very rude and offensive at any time anywhere. Until the last 10 years or so those words were seldom used except maybe a parent to a child which is still very wrong. The correct way to say it is to ask them to please be quiet as you are trying to concentrate. To say it for no reason except that they irritate you is even more wrong. I realize that young people use those words all the time and think it is cool and everyone does it, but outside your click those words can get you fired, or at the very least you will be considered rude and inconsiderate and not educated in the ways of society and how to get along in this world. Obviously you are asking this question because you do not want to be rude and considered socially inept. Good for you for asking, I hope you take this to heart.
I accidentally told my crush to shut up. We don't know each other well enough for me to apologise on an old incident, but I still feel bad. What should I do?
You can always apologize to anyone for a “mistake” or “gaff.”
I told my mom to shut up... am i just plain wrong?
It sounds like you're at that age where your parents are getting on your nerves...which is basically your entire life after the time you're about eight years old. At the end of the day, that's your mother and as much of a pain I'm sure she can be at times (it's in her job description), it's the only one you've got. If you come to a point where the chips are down and the $!@ hits the fan, she'll be one of the few people that you can actually count on in your corner. It's a fact. She's biologically hardwired to ultimately be on your side. So right now, she's giving you crap. You might be completely in the right. Is it really worth an argument or upsetting your mom? Thinking about it another way: What if somebody else told your mom to shut up? You'd be fighting mad, wouldn't you? So what makes you any different? If you just HAVE to blow up at somebody, the VERY LAST person it should be is your mom. Right now, I'm sure a lot of things seem like a bigger deal than they really are. It sounds like you're probably just running a little high on emotions. Live a little longer. When you're old like me, you'll just start to naturally blow off snide comments and lesser insults. One last thing: people take a lot more than they actually have to. You're required to take tons of crap off your parents (that's the way life works). But, don't let other people push you to that tipping point. If you're "taking it" so they feel better, what's in it for you? I'm not saying be a prick. Certainly, don't be violent. But, there's no reason to be a doormat, either.
What should I do if my boyfriend told me to shut up?
look, most relationships are going to have there ups and downs. the good times and the not-so good times. and, an extreme majority of the time, we should be courteous and respectful of our significant others, not to mention everyone else in our lives as well. but, occasionally, we lose our cool and say/do some things that we kinda wish we hadn't. 90 some-odd times out of 100, i would never talk down to someone that i care about. but, every now and then, you do have to tell someone exactly what's on your mind. if in that particular point in time, what was on his mind was telling you to "shut up", then i feel he's fine in doing so. i'm not picking sides with the male, as i would be telling him the same thing if the roles were reversed. it's actually unhealthy/unrealistic that we can be "nice" and "lovey-dovey" 100% of the time with those that we care about. every now and then, you've got to stand up for yourself... even if that means telling someone to "shut up" so you can speak. is it rude? sure, it's rude. but sometimes the situation dictates how things need to be handled. is your bf a fairly good person? does he go around disrespecting you fairly often? tells you to shut up all the time? well, i doubt he does, so this one time was a little out of character. but, you both were competing to be heard by the other one, so somebody (him) decided to do something about it. so "shut up" doesn't mean "i hate you", it just means that "i've lost my cool for a second, and i either need to say what i've got to say, or i'm going to have to hang up on you." i'm not sure what you are saying, but do you feel your relationship is in jeopardy over his behavior on this one phone call? or are the other factors as well, that are causing you to feel this way? regardless, you two should have a nice discussion about it tonight and get everything off of your chests, so that things can either go back to normal, or work on your differences. trying to find somewhere to live can be stressful enough, so i think you both need to forgive yourselves and move on. best wishes.
If someone says "shut-up" to me, should I take that as rude behavior?
Yes. Saying “shut up” is an unkind way of telling someone to stop talking. It is a bit aggressive and invites an aggressive response.If you feel that you must tell someone to stop talking, Other, gentler options include,Please stop talking.Please be quiet for a minute.Can we stop talking about that now?If the person still doesn’t get the hint, try something a bit more assertive, such as,That’s enough. Please stop.Stop talking.If someone tells you to shut up, it is considered rude, so in response, you can say, “Excuse me?” or “What?”Either way, using “shut up” is considered a rude sentiment.
How can one say "shut the fuck up" more politely?
“Please refrain from talking.”“If it is not such an inconvenience could you stop communicating verbally.”“One would hope you stopped saying so much nonesense.”“How about we listen to the sound of silence, I have been told it's quite pleasing.”“If you could kindly stop sending sound waves in my direction that would be great.”
Teacher telling students to "shut up"?
Under NO circumstances should a teacher use language that is considered rude and hurtful. You are right to be upset. I would be upset too, and I would talk to the teacher. Let him/her know that you realize that your daughter is a talker, but that does not excuse bad language. The teacher should be able to get the point across in a more acceptable way. This year, my kids' 3rd grade teacher kept using the phrases "Duh!" and "None of your business". I talked with him and asked him if he said those things. He said he absolutely did. I said "You can't say those things to the kids." He said "Why not?". I said "Because when you say them, they repeat them to each other, and in our house, Duh is practically a swear word, and if our kids told us to mind our own business, they'd get some pretty stiff consequences for being disrespectful." The teacher listened to me and agreed that they were not good words. He said he'd find a different way to get the point across. That was a few weeks ago, and my daughter has not heard him say those things since.
What should you say when a person tells you to shut up?
The best answer is to fall immediately silent, showing no anger, and looking away, then leaving as if you have some moderately needful thing to do. If you can't leave, then look at a screen — checking email is the same as leaving the room.Your silence can only be taken as compliance, and if everyone agrees in wishing you would shut up, you will provide universal relief. If others wish you would continue, and follow you to ask you to return, just hold up a hand and smile and say, “We can talk another time.” You see, it really is true that “a soft answer turneth away wrath.” If you aren't resisting, it's hard for someone to push against you.
