What are your pet peeves ?

When someone asks me a question they already know the answer to, in order to prod me into doing something they want me to do... Instead of simply asking me to do it. :shifty:

Conversely, when people assume that my asking them a question isn't because I want the answer (yes. I do. Or I wouldn't have asked!) but am trying to prod them into doing something.

Direct vs Passive-Aggrrrsive :banghead:
 
OK -
1,TAILGATERS - I HATE them. I will get into the middle lane, pull off the road, anything to get them off of me.
(part of my ptsd is two car accidents - so I have ZERO tolerance, and instead of getting mad, I get out of the way!)
**better safe than dead***

2,Anyone I talk to who drinks more than two beers, the smell is a trigger and I dislike speaking to the alcohol instead of the person.

3,People who have an air and the actions of entitlement..... which is skating on narcissism. I Hate people who feel entitled and have a "just help themselves attitude." I hate their behavior, not them. It is my theory that those who are behaviorally extreme in a harmful way toward others.... sadly have been harmed themselves. I don't have to be around danger. I am doing my work to be safe.

4.Ok ready for this? People who Judge. ha ha ha. And this applies to me most of all. I can choose to be with whom I feel safe with and make distinctions - boundaries I set for and around myself. I am choosing. It is so hard when I can see and feel from others a leap to judgement with NO idea what is behind my actions or inaction's. So many times - I see an angry person who is so full of rage.... I say to myself, man that is a hurting person, I can't imagine how broken they are. I also steer clear, give them a wide berth if necessary.

5.Dishonesty. Sometimes being completely honest can be hurtful. So we are honest with tact. I am not going to tell you - yes you look fat in that dress. I might say - what a perfect color for you - what do you think? But the withholding a truth that directly impacts a relationship a make or break, is cruel in every respect. I always always want the truth, I love it, with both hands and all my hearts.

And finally - being really hungry ordering and the food is crap in a restaurant.

Oh and therapists who are so f***ed up they need MY help. I have NO mercy for them.
