Why do women bully nice guys?

[jongreat46]

Now before any of you get hot under the collar at my question I'm not asking about dating or wanting sex with women. I couldn't give a fig about having sex since I've already had it. Anyway, at work im practically nice to everyone yet there is this girl who hangs out with a group of us but me and her are frenemies and I never say a word to her as I've tried to be friendly with her but she's a bitch to me so I return the favor. Now apparently whenever I'm not around she talks shit about me and tells everyone how I'm slow and how I look slow AKA retarted and she gets upset when my other coworkers defend me against her and apparently she gives them attitude and I've never been rude to her at all and yet she snubs me any chance she gets but if I do the same to her then she gets but hurt and I don't care if she gets offended. Most of the women in my work area like me so I don't see why she sees me a threat even though I don't give her the time of day and I don't even flirt with her or have even tried. It just bothers me that she takes so much energy to try to put me down and yet I know for a fact that if I confront her then I would get in trouble with my managers or worse HR.

people are only as good as others allow them not to be

people have an innate need "bully" and take advantage of those who don't stand up for themselves. it might not happen straightaway and it might not be malicious by intent but any chink in the armor is fair game

for example, a friendly boss is ok with workers showing up to work late, therefore the workers will continue to show up late for work as long as he won't fire them

Some women simply don't have any knowledge of healthy relationships. Pity these types of people as no relationship the have is healthy. They'll never be truly happy and worst of all unfortunately, they'll never understand why.
