Yesterday, on the evening run in Karura, I ran past a very pretty woman who waved when she saw me. I stopped, said hi, and challenged her to a 400m sprint on the field. If I beat her , she gives me her number, right?

She said cool.

I said, are you sure?

She nodded.

D’Angelo was one of a kind. As a pioneer in neo-soul, he inspired a generation of singers, and helped shape music today. Michelle and I are thinking of his family, and all those who loved and admired him. https://t.co/Y97bD9O0E2

The reason the pressure to “be the bigger person” often lands on the wronged individual is because society tends to value restoration of order over true accountability. The wrongdoer has already proven they lack restraint, maturity, or empathy in that moment—so expecting them to suddenly act with integrity is unrealistic. Instead, the burden shifts to the person harmed, because they are seen as the one who can exercise restraint, wisdom, and composure. In other words, people project responsibility onto the party who demonstrates the capacity to rise above, even though they should not have to.

This creates a paradox: the wrongdoer is indirectly rewarded with lowered expectations, while the victim is burdened with a moral obligation they never asked for. It’s a form of social survival—humans want tension resolved quickly, even if it means placing unfair responsibility on the stronger party. That’s why “be the bigger person” is whispered more than “hold the guilty accountable.”

At its deepest level, this reflects the imbalance between power and responsibility. To “be the bigger person” is not about justice, it’s about ending escalation. But when repeated, it conditions victims into silence, and wrongdoers into cycles of uncorrected behavior. The truth is, growth requires balance: sometimes choosing peace is wise, but other times demanding accountability is the actual “bigger” choice.

So the answer isn’t one-sided. The wronged can be bigger by choosing not to mirror destructive behavior, but society must stop excusing the wrongdoer by lowering standards for them. Both responsibility and expectation need to shift back where they belong—on the one who caused the harm.
