I Have Pet Peeves

@fernie2 I can deal with criticism when it's constructive. If it's criticism that isn't based on logic, it doesn't matter to me. People will see you one way or another no matter what you do or say. If you're confident and comfortable with yourself, then you won't break others down just to feel better about yourself. There's strength in being able to laugh at yourself.

@joahola98wj People are always going to be people. We have to have armor in this life. Accept that people are going to annoy us. You are really upset by other people's behavior. The way you deal with it is what is important. You are clearly giving up your personal peace and power by being SO bothered by this. That is what I mean by thin skinned.Again, if you are not communicating your feelings to these people, they can't read your mind, and they continue on, you need new people."People will see you one way or another no matter what you do or say. If you're confident and comfortable with yourself, ...there's strength in being able to laugh at yourself" all of that is so true...if you are a confident person....then other people's opinions don't matter to you...you won't be so disturbed by them.

@fernie2 Everyone's going to annoy someone. If you think I'm thin skinned, then you are mistaken. Everyone has pet peeves including you. Some things bother you unless you're someone who represses or suppresses your feelings, pretending they don't exist. These people can be your co-workers, strangers, or acquaintances. I ignore people if they act toxic.

@fernie2 Why do you say that?

@fernie2 It's similar to saying that I don't like olives and you reacting by telling me that I dislike too much. Are you the type of person who likes other people dictating what you should like or dislike? Do you let other people make those decisions for you? Are you one of those people who completes puzzle games for someone else, does someone else's homework or essay for him or her, gives away all the answers, not allowing him or her to learn how to do those things by himself or herself? Do you hover or act like a helicopter person?
