Heh heh

I don't see it as letting people walk all over you. You can and should still respond to people's insults/etc, but you do it with love rather than with hatred and more insults.

So how do you demonstrate your love for the person who insulted you? Do you apologize for being a loser? Do you buy him a steak dinner? Do you agree with his insults about you to show that you are an agreeable person?
