There are people from there I wouldn't want to run into again, and like Maria, I imagine I'd go to great lengths to avoid having them being a part of the life of anyone dear to me. Mostly because simply thinking about these people makes me feel bad. I wonder why Maria can't just tell Anders to stay away from Tina rather than the other way around, though. Antagonizing her can only lead to escalation. In dealing with these types, I found it most useful to heed Machiavelli's teachings: "If you must harm your enemy, do it so grievously you need not fear his revenge."
