I can't take credit for this, because I saw it on Facebook today.  The answers were interesting and I thought it might be thought provoking.  I've given my answer a lot of thought and I think " be the bigger person, " was nonsense. How about you, it can be personal, medical, or really anything.

Be the bigger person as long as you don't end up being a doormat!

@Anonymous032819 , That was one of the answers, and also nonsense in my opinion. People often say it in the most inappropriate times.

Oh, don't you know it does!  The only thing is, the reason is sometimes garbage!

Some day this will all make sense to you and you'll be glad I did it!

@ECBG  It has been my experience that with most people it is a waste of my time.

I've heard this all my life and it's utter horse puckey: "You should love her just because she's your mother."

 

Obviously these people didn't have the horrible, awful "mother" we had. I want to gag whenever I hear that. I once told someone "That's easy for you to say."
