Someone says something cutting, and your mind goes blank. Choose one plain sentence before you need it, such as “That's an odd thing to say” or “What do you mean by that?”
In this Extra, you'll attach that sentence to the moment with a simple if-then plan. Practice it ahead of time, say it once, and leave the pause alone.
You may still feel flushed, and the other person may not change. The aim is to have a response ready for an ordinary rude remark and spend less time replaying what you didn't say. A repeated or unsafe situation needs more than a sentence.
