“Just saying” is a common phrase you have probably heard someone utter before, usually after you say something offensive, mean spirited, or otherwise negative.It’s a dismissive phrase and a person uses as an attempt to get out of the consequences of the words you just spoke. The takeaway here is that “just saying” is a way to dismiss a person’s feelings and absolve the speaker of any blame for their hurtful words. It “allows” that person to basically say whatever you want without fully owning how their words will affect the person you’re speaking to.
Recognizing a condescending person involves observing certain behaviors and attitudes that suggest a sense of superiority over others. Common signs include an overemphasis on one's own intelligence, often accompanied by a dismissive attitude towards others' ideas or contributions. These individuals may frequently offer unsolicited advice, believing they have the best solutions to any problem. They might also exhibit a tendency to boast about their achievements, seeking validation and admiration from those around them.
