Alter Ego

everyone has a alter ego.people use them for various reasons. for example when someone breaks into your house you don't greet them like their your friend you say something like "who the fuck is in my house". i try not to use mine unless i'm trying to protect myself. as of late though it seems like some bitches(yea thats what they are to me @ this point)like to start shit with me for no apparent reason. One of my friends told me that i should never argue with a female because you won't win. He's right to an extent. i'm getting better at just saving my breath. but it's challenging. Usually when someone provokes me i just curse them out.But now i just look at them and shake my head or i just say "your really not worth my time or i'm getting to old to argue". For the most part i'm getting better at avoiding arguments though.
