The closer you are to someone, the more careful you should be with your words.
As the saying goes, the closer you are to someone, the more careful you have to be with your words, and this is also an important issue in relationships with relatives. In particular, if a relative carelessly blurts out words and you feel bad, you may be worried about how to deal with it. First, it is important to honestly convey your feelings. Before talking directly, first calm down and think about what to say. It is better to start talking calmly rather than reacting emotionally.
When starting a conversation, you can start with something like, "I'm cautious about saying this, but I hope you'll listen." Then, try to honestly convey your feelings by saying, "Sometimes, the things you say hurt me." It's important not to blame the other person, but to talk about your feelings. This way, the other person will understand your feelings and will likely be more careful.
It is also important to understand each other's position through conversation. Try to understand the background of why your relative says such things. If you understand each other's position through conversation, you will be able to resolve misunderstandings and maintain a better relationship. If the conversation is difficult, one way is to try mediation with the help of another family member. The important thing is that you need to express and resolve your feelings in a healthy way rather than suppressing them.
