Holding People Accountable For Their Words

[@elainegomillion2229]

Thanks for this Rickey, I had to leave a lot of people alone for doing exactly what you just said. You're right too, they do try to speed talk and/or talk over you when you call them out on it.

[@stephanie8202]

One of the best quotes ever is "Teach people how to treat you".

[@cathyworth4409]

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!

[@valeriagast5711]

EXACTLY 💯...NOT TO MENTION THEY HAVE THE NERVES TO GET AN ATTITUDE WHEN YOU ADDRESS THEM 🙄, IMMEDIATELY!

[@herrmannlewis9376]

Never let people play in your face 😈.

[@MissOne]

YES 👍🏽 manipulation needs to be checked on the spot.

[@ebearlwilliams6930]

You are Right Rickey ✅ Smiley ! You must always be addressing GARY🤣

[@jacquesejones37]

I go through this with a parent. Im about to use this on everyone who tries me. Thank you Ricky Smiley

[@feliciamcpherson2251]

Good for you! I was just talking about this the other day

[@MissOne]

Thanks for this message. Great advice to put into practice daily.

[@karenclay6027]

Facts! Family and friends always show their true colors.. I started shutting all of then down!

[@kristinawilliams4597]

Me too they say I'm mean but IDC you will not handle me any kind of way period

[@cathyworth4409]

I’m with YOU on this one. I don’t let people get away with thinking that they can say anything to me and think I’m gonna let it slide even IF it IS in a round about way.I ain’t NEVER had a problem with CONFRONTATION! NOPE NOT HAPPENING! 💕

[@davispatricks5453]

Lord I am praying for God to help me with this. I usually take a bunch a mess, then think about what I should have said after I walk away.

[@jq710]

LMAO like the clerk @ AMMONATION in Grand Theft Auto: we are ALL about CONFLICT RESOLUTION over here pal.

[@marilynlovelace7124]

i appreciate your motivational words.

[@marmc2982]

Thank you Sir!

[@luvulord02]

That part!!!! I Love it🔥

[@jackiethomas7820]

Yeaah! That's old school, and that's Me. You get a reputation of being mean, sarcastic and difficult with some people. And others just know You don't play games, and appreciate You for being real.

[@cathyworth4409]

Same HERE! You HAVE TO set boundaries.

[@elloweeleach8209]

So True Rickey

[@deewatShy]

That's right. Address it the same time it happens

[@nursevirgie5714]

So right on point

[@minniecash4500]

I realized that you have to get them right when it happens. If you go back later, they will have amnesia, gaslight you.

[@vanessasanders7591]

Thanks for sharing

[@romone8614]

[@keithreed5829]

RICKEY THAT'S A GREAT IDEA IT'S BEST TO ADDRESS A ISSUE IMMEDIATELY THAT WAY BOTH PEOPLE HOPELY REACH A UNDERSTANDING & MOVE FORWARD TOGETHER OR APART.🤔

[@mrs.logan926]

Thank You Rickey 🌹 I address people with the quickness, I been pissing people off lately ,anyone that knows me know I handle issues on point but respectfully.

[@cathyworth4409]

YES then they call YOU CONFRONTATIONAL!!! 🤣ME TOO!

[@h.funderburktackymamaqueen2032]

I agree, because there was a lady I stopped talking to. she said some nasty words to me - one day she tells me in front of a group of women, I didn't talk to nobody. At that time she was referring to she and myself. I made it clear - I talk to everyone who know how to talk to me. Case close.

[@essiedowdell8700]

Thank you Ricky it happened . I usually correct the child but when a adult you have to get them really good You are absolutely right thanks a lot

[@sonyaw2293]

This is so on point. I just checked a relative for this exact thing. You covered everything I addressed with them. I didn’t raise my voice nor was I disrespectful. If I won’t allow strangers to disrespect me then I shouldn’t let relatives do so too.

[@michellewright8208]

I’m pretty good with saying miss me with the BS, just In facial expressions. People know their intent and reason for their actions. I consider it as pressing someone’s boundaries. If you don’t have anything positive or encouraging to say. It’s best not to say anything at all. We are all held accountable for our actions at the end of the day.

[@aclark7862]

Thank you for this tidbit- I really appreciate this because I’ve had to deal with a lot of passive aggression.

[@ShalamarEntertainmentGroupLLC]

Goodmorning Ricky!!! U are absolutely right!!! I stop playing wit folks YEARS ago!!! Now I call them out straight to their face-NO CHASER!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾U gotta stop playing with these grown folks out here….

[@suzrmx250]

Yeah Rick man some people say no but don't want to here no . When you say no after they have told you know don't let them fast talk and over talk to get over. Been there and learned that

[@alananew6790]

💯U are a grown A** REAL MAN! I love you for keeping it 💯.

[@sharonanderson6926]

[@ettadunlap5411]

[@shaniemack2553]

💯

[@kaefreemanduchess719]

[@kaefreemanduchess719]

Thank You so much for this 🎚️✝️🙏

[@jaymichelle5496]

Love and appreciate the advice Ricky! Hold em accountable and cut em off if they continue to play mf games❤️

[@freddrickbroaden7981]

You are the MAN!!!! Thanks for this one I go through this on the regular!! Much Love!!!

[@latanyarucker9091]

One thing I learned about my past I never get in the car with nobody else when I got put out my own mother house and had to call the limo to come and pick me up because the family turned against me for what I don't know but ever since then I never looked back

[@tylerjones7263]

Some people just need a escape goat or someone to focus blame on. I bet your way better without them. I never turned back also. Blessings

[@diondraivy269]

Rickey I just want you to know that this was a " REAL WORD FOR ME PERSONALLY"!.. I'm just an average person that just loves your content without having any status. But this RIGHT HERE, HELPED ME IMMENSELY!! Thank you for continuing to be a super real person. Thanks again , I'm going to make adjustments in how I allow folks to deal with me.

[@deborahsteiner6467]

😊😊❤

[@christyb7590]

I'm having a problem with a toxic 26 yr old daughter. I try to redirect the conversation about what crap she has said but she says I didn't hear it right, blah blah. I recently listened to a video you made about adult kids being entitled. It's time for her to get on out on her own and let society teach her what's gonna happen.

[@bernandoturner4840]

Rickey Smiley.! I see your point.. I love your Point… I just Call Uber or Catch Bus & or Trolley..! I keep my Bus Pass Fresh/ even though I Drive.. I still ride the Buses & Trolley’s because of Parking Down Town..Folk dont know not To Ask me For Rides Im Busy….😄

[@ceyonnefitness4649]

It’s called a meeting a Mofo at the Line. It’s the only way to live. Great Relationship are built around establishing Boundaries and Accountablity.

[@SEA-dx1sv]

Hello from NY

[@bestbehaviour_4uforya]

I am not going to allow ,anyone to use me as their garbage receptacle. We will talk/speak correctly or not at all! 🤷🏾‍♀️✍🏾

[@carolinagirl9891]

Mom is always doing this to me…Great advice !

[@Delores999]

I like this.

[@rainbowlove5391]

In the Psych world it's called passive aggressive behavior! Check them at the moment without anger.

[@DistractedByHumans]

Amen! Don’t let people play in your face ❤️

[@sonjastanley1067]

I'm addressing it then and there. No one has the right to jug at me. And I won't allow them to. Best wishes!

[@No_Show94]

[@meetupspeakup4161]

[@patsy128]

[@isabelmanzanera8602]

Good morning great advice.

[@lisabaker5460]

I love me some you!!!! 🥰😍😘

[@latonyanelson2887]

Lol!!!!!! Rickey you telling the truth but its still hilarious! The look on your face! Lol !

[@sylviagaddis8517]

You are 💯 correct. I call it "talking wreckless" You can't do that or talk slick... You WILL get, got! 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@warnercoleman8791]

Absolutely 100000000% Right!!!! Rickey. Keep up the great work 👍

[@kinyamccrary8187]

Thank you 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 as aways keep the amazing work 😘😘

[@dwightjones9580]

Ok. So I'm not wrong for taking someone telling me not to comeback in their life literally. Not even one word and I stand on that!!! 10 years going. Now this person is asking for friend request from my best friend on FB.

[@barbaragales3802]

That just what I was going to say "words of wisdom"! 👍🏾👍🏾✊🏾✊🏾✌🏾✌🏾

[@DreamsBig85]

“I know you busy, you could’ve gave me a ride home, but I know you busy” 😂😂😂

[@ireneshine883]

I don't let them try to talk fast to me I try to talk fast over them because they will do you that way

[@kaytrammell5873]

Yes you're right Ricky. Absolutely

[@tylerjones7263]

Yes Rickey I almost got the holy ghost this morning. I do and then they say I'm arrogant. I don't let any grown person slide. 😘

[@virginianatalie2879]

Great advice !!!!

[@frangilbert721]

And if you said it, be a woman or man to admit to the actions. Because you don't have to do anything for them. Yes I stay away from those kind of people. I cut them off entirely. No coming back .I smile, wave and keep it moving. You won't get another opportunity to try and steal my joy. That's on everything 💯

[@twylasteamer4009]

I needed this walk through. Your step by step approach with explanations was excellent. I’m going to teach my sons this in their youth.

[@tykeshac4086]

Hey Rickey Yea Your Definitely Right Hold Them Accountable For What They Say At All Times😇💓

[@valerieeaglin9377]

Good Morning Ricky you're sure right

[@kristinawilliams4597]

You're so right and I guess I get so angry not only do o address I cuss they ass out at the same time ion play anymore I use to let what ppl say slide not anymore then once I address it I cut them off

[@jackieballard8047]

I sounds like it's a matter of accountability and about boundaries. Sometimes people you barely know expect you to behave in a way as you would with someone you have a history with. They see your comfortable with one person and expect that same kind of energy for no valid reason. It's a sign of the times we live in. Everyone moves so fast and skip steps that shouldn't be skipped in the name of instant gratification. You have to learn to protect yourself and be comfortable in doing so.

[@msimpson1973]

This is good!! Thank you 😊

[@khulk1911]

It took me wayyy too long to learn this lesson in life! I was always the type to let it go and just shake my head. It NEVER got better...it got worse! People start thinking they can just do that to you all the time and say what they want to you. That "pecking order" crap happens the moment you meet people -- and it always starts out with a backhanded comment followed by, "...just kidding!".

[@lyndahairston612]

Good morning, this is true and when I say something and it’s out of pocket I want it to be addressed, I don’t mind correction, I don’t normally say things that’s out of character but I’m a imperfect person , people make mistakes, not intentionally but it happens. I’m not one to manipulate words , but I’m a person that will speak my mind and say what I mean and mean what I say , I don’t like having to apologize for anything I’ve said JS.

[@brandontrammel4581]

Facts I have no problem with constructive criticism and learning and apologizing for mistakes.

[@TABULOUS1]

Same.

[@Luvbug-v2g]

🎯I go through this with a particular family member. Usually this is someone who feels “less than”.(self imposed)

[@luethaderpinckney7218]

Omg I had to do this at work because this person don't understand that i get tried of him waiting for me to get a ride don't understand no so i don't talk to him anymore

[@bernettaknighten4069]

That part

[@brandonbranch6016]

Who on the morning show? Hmmm…gotta be one of the ladies. My bet is Eva 🤣

[@Chan-og8pu]

Passive Aggressive is what that is.

[@angelamitchell9768]

You are so right Mr. Smiley. Everytime you drop videos of Knowledge it's right on time. I call it conversations with Rickey. 💖

[@jackiewelch4978]

Fast talk, out talk , equals word salad. Signs of a narcissist.

[@dianerichburg4450]

CONFIRMATION! It's called "shady/shade." You have to let folks know; you felt some type of way and you're calling them out on it. Hold them accountable for the words they speak. Ultimately, people know what they're saying and doing yet they try to deflect and wiggle their way outta the situation. Nah, I'm addressing it whether you like it or not. All boils down to RESPECT.🙂
