Sorry, guess we have a different view on what "aggressive" means. Dictionary term for aggressive:

"characterized by or tending toward unprovoked offensives, attacks, invasions, or the like; militantly forward or menacing: aggressive acts against a neighboring country."

I guess the term I would have used for what you're talking about would be "assertive."

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
