I don’t consider myself to be
one who is easily annoyed. But I do get that way when I experience one of three
things.
My pet peeves.
Sure I have little ones that
I can usually just flick off without much trouble but it’s these three that get
under my skin big time and cause me to pause or scream. I hate it.
Today, I’m experiencing one
that is causing me to pause, be uncomfortable, slightly nervous and a little
bit anxious.
Have you ever sensed that a
friend is mad at you or upset with something and you have absolutely no idea
why? Your attempts to communicate, reach out to them, are met with silence.
It’s happening to me this
week. One of my girlfriends that I haven’t spoken with in a while is completely
ignoring me. With most of my friends, I wouldn’t give this one second of
thought knowing everyone is busy with their own “stuff” and their lack of
communication is not in the least bit personal.
So here is where I tell you
one of my BIGGEST pet peeves that irks the heck out of me, passive/aggressive people. I cannot read your mind. I don’t know why you would
be upset with me because I haven’t really spoken to you in a while.
Or is that it? I haven’t
given you much attention over the last few months. If you needed something, my
time or attention, would you please just tell me so? Don’t ignore me. Don’t
refuse to respond. I find that, in and of itself, rude and unfriendly-like
behavior.
I got your point, I think. You’re
bent out of shape with me for some reason.
I can read into it enough to assume this is the case. That is exactly
what I don’t like doing. I don’t like to assume one single thing. I want to
know.
Do I call you again tomorrow
and make you tell me what the problem is or do I let it ride until I see you
over Memorial Day weekend?
God, I hate thinking about
this kind of stuff. Total waste of time I could be wasting doing something I really
like to do. Instead, I’m bitching about it on my blog!
Some people just have to get
over themselves.
Rant over. Damn that took me
10 minutes! 10 minutes I can’t get back now!!!
