Oddly, I don't consider dominance and submission to be passive-aggressive.
Holding out on sex would be passive-aggressive
- and from observing your general attitude towards sex, I doubt that's what you meant.
As would any other way of withholding affection to punish
I was thinking more along the lines of when people indirectly try to bully others, talking around someone insultingly rather than directly to them, posting and saying things around people that they hope may upset or trigger them (as well as attempting to set boundaries by acting the same way), reading other's posts through threads in other subforums (which is fine) but then covertly trying to peppering it into other places, teaming up against people, gas lighting, any other indirect method of attempting to be aggressive or intimidating, saying they have a disorder that they think someone else who frustrates them does, making up different user accounts and using them at the same time as two (or multiple) different characters, etc.
What's unfortunate, is when people do it enough to others, they think everyone else is doing it to them even when others are just being honest.
As for when I said learning this skill despite myself, there's no point in directly addressing this type of skill with any of the PDs that use this as their primary language on this website, so you end up getting sucked in and doing the same - and then also going around misinterpreting.

or "In spite of"?
I don't mind my strange ways of ordering sentences and adding dashes, but I could use a lesson on commas - they're killing me.

Then later I realized I was being a complete ######6 p.o.s. @@@@@@@ - and I felt necessary (12 Steps) to acknowledge my behavior and that it was wrong and what I should have done instead.
I like that I can do that though; it makes me feel accomplished (once it's over).
My conversation here still hasn't ended.
It's irritating, yet comical as ###$.
She told me she used to have problems like me as well - and that she could offer some advice. She offered to find me the name of the breathing app she found useful.

I'd like to get defensive and add that it wasn't entirely my fault, but I'm clearing "my end of the street," so I'm not supposed to say that.
I want to find a kind way to decline and end the conversation, but I don't know how.
