Passive aggression is a form of indirect expression of hostility, where individuals communicate negative feelings, frustration, or anger without openly addressing them. Rather than confronting an issue head-on, the person engages in behaviors that subtly undermine or resist others, often making it difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of tension. These actions are often seen as passive because the aggressor avoids direct confrontation, preferring instead to express their displeasure in subtle, often disguised ways. While passive aggression can sometimes seem harmless or even humorous, it can cause significant distress and damage to relationships over time.

Understanding passive aggression requires an exploration of the psychological mechanisms behind it. People who exhibit passive aggressive behavior often struggle with direct confrontation. This may stem from fear of rejection, a lack of assertiveness, or an inability to express anger healthily. In many cases, these individuals are unable or unwilling to articulate their true emotions and instead choose passive-aggressive tactics to deal with frustration. This behavior can manifest in a range of actions, including procrastination, forgetfulness, silent treatment, sarcasm, and even sabotage.

One of the challenges of dealing with passive aggression is that it is often hidden beneath seemingly innocuous actions or words. For example, someone might agree to help with a task but intentionally delay or perform it poorly, thus conveying their resistance without direct confrontation. Similarly, someone might offer backhanded compliments or use sarcasm to indirectly express contempt while maintaining a facade of politeness. These subtle acts of hostility can leave the recipient confused, frustrated, and unsure of how to respond, as the negative feelings are often not openly acknowledged.
