No, it can have its benefits and drawbacks like everything else.

You don't always need someone to be upfront and aggressive as it can create unnecessary tension but also passive aggressiveness can also have several drawbacks.

Sometimes I think PA works better for making a point than AA.

It shows youre not scurd whilst giving the impression youre not that pissed (even though inside you could be fuming).

Obviously if your flat mate is being PA just to be a dick then

when you say something aggressive but word it in such a way so that you can quickly backtrack if they pull you up on it and pretend you didnt mean it in that way
