I Am Difficult
I'm impossible to live with.
At some point, we're going to argue.
I eventually will yell at you.
You'll yell back.
Some people have tried just walking away...(I may or may not have chased them, still yelling).
I don't like any of that (most of the time). I hate to actually upset people. (Oldest adopted can't handle yelling even when it's not at her, even when it's just at the screen so I try really [i]really[/i] hard to tone things down)
If I'm driving and you can't handle the yelling, you're going to have to take the bus or a cab. Because people piss me off too much on the road.
Youngest biological and I seem to have worked this out so that we can still talk after an argument and it doesn't escalate. There was a time we lived together and had to share a room. Nighttime conversations went something like: "I hate you...night." and "I told mom that if the only way I could get the room to myself was to kill you, I'd do it. She thought I was joking but I wasn't..."
We laugh about it now, but that feeling still applies today so we know we can't ever live together even as adults.
