Pissing people off

Ok, here's my question: how many people did you really piss off lately and why?

I am very nonconfrontational and never made any enemies - I knew how to avoid these situations.

However this year I made at least 3 personal enemies and barely half the year's over.... It's such a weird time, I have to fight for every little piece of everything, no matter what.

Where do you stand?

Everybody loves me *shrugs* As far as I know, I don't have any enemies and have never really pissed anyone off.

Never had any fights with girlfriends (you read right, none - unless you count seeing your gf making out with another guy - but at that point she wasn't my gf anymore

). I just get along with everybody.

Extremely passive person and good luck trying to piss me off. It probably won't ever happen - unless you try and mug me, then I will beat you. Yep, happened to me in Banff, Alberta a couple years ago.

I'm not sure if I really piss anyone off but if I don't like you I don't exactly care how you feel about me anyway.

I have a few 'wives' out there who don't like me.

"Wives" do count, LOL!

Other than wives?

In my case I have one overcompetitive collegue at my Master who hates my guts and the 2 people I currently live with.

However, I notice that my life becomes more and more a matter of confrontation, I'm not even starting to tell you how it goes at work.

I guess I should simply chill and not get involved, be indifferent, but it's a very stressful environment to live in.

Why, did you drink their beer?

twinkle · 08-28-2005, 03:48 PM

I wish they did drink beer, Duke!

They don't go out, they don't mingle with other people who are not Romanian, they don't invite anyone over for dinner. EVER.

I kinda go out, I have friends of all nationalities, I went out with a Frenchman and ever since I'm single, phones have started ringing.

I don't cook stinky food either - I'm not much of a cook either, lately

!

Bottom line: I come home late and I shut the doors and it bothers them. I'm the only person who drinks alcohol in that house and who is called at the phone. Ever.

Women, don't ever live with 2 of them

!!!

...unless your a man.

Yep chicks suck, I mostly get along with Guys, because just like Duke and Weiser men are more passive and don't usually get upset by petty crap like the ladies :?

As far as when is that last time I pissed someone off.. probably a few times a day, I am a like it or leave it type of person I don't sugar coat anything and I say what is on my mind and that offends many people.. plus I am a horrible driver and I drive a big car I get beeped at and flicked off every 15 minutes

My son thinks they are saying hello

I have to say that comment actually made me laugh out loud, lmao

Merika · 08-29-2005, 09:59 AM

ME TOO! Wait until he starts giving people the finger....thinking he's being police and friendly!

Twinkle,
I probably couldn't live with any of the females who grew up in my area either. I've changed....they haven't. Hopefully, you'll meet someone else who is looking for a roomate and get out of the h*ll hole soon.

twinkle · 08-29-2005, 04:38 PM

I wish I was as straightforward as you, HEather. I'm too nice for my own sake!

I keep on searching for a house, boy I've never in my life waited for anything else this much.

Stone · 08-29-2005, 07:26 PM

If that is the case, you will get it.. try being straitfoward once in awhlie it is a very freeing feeling :wink:

Luba · 09-03-2005, 01:43 PM

For me, it works the other way...I don't think I really **** people off, and it takes a lot to **** me off, but once, it happens...look out!!! I Finally told the old grandfather off after a long, long time and for a man that continually drank in my home and verbally abused my kids...I finally got the courage to tell the S*B off, and he never darkened my home again...should have had the guts to do it in the first place....

And I once threw a chair across the room standing up for myself and even surprised the hell out of myself, cold sober, too! (Drink makes me feel brave and I could really hurt somebody

)

Stone, good for you that you don't take no ****, comes a time that if you take it and take it and take it, it won't come out pretty, speaking from experience :twisted:
