Well this is hard, because I rock.

But I suppose maybe I get a little "loud" sometimes.
And sometimes I start talking about something, and I get carried away into a completely different story, and totally forget about my point of the first conversation.

I think I have a lot of qualities that could be potentially annoying.

Actually, my one of my best girlfriends told me that she really found me irritating when we first met last year because I would say things that pissed her off, that she didn't want to hear or admitt to herself that I had a point. Now she said she considers that a great gift.

Oh and people my age get irritated by me because I have nothing in common with them. 90 percent of my friends are between 34 and 37 and I'm 20.


Oh and a lot of what you guys said, I am really liberal, speak my mind, and don't backdown to anyone, although if I change my mind or if I think I'm wrong, I'll be the first to admit it.

I try to not annoy people, but sometimes people just won't like you and it can't be helped. All we can do is be the best person we can be.

I think you are all wonderful!

Haha...I annoy people because I'm so sudden...
I speak in outbursts and people think I'm snapping at them when I don't mean to...working on that one


I also cannot hold a grudge, so someone's still annoyed with me and I've totally forgotten what I did!
Then we just get mad at each other all over again. *sigh*

I drive people at work nuts because I have to have order and organization around me. Wish I was that way at home too!
I'm just super efficient at work and like everything in its place and some people just don't understand it.

I'm the exact same way and it drives Will crazy! I must always follow my same schedule, I love routine and anything out of the ordinary just really stresses me out. It probably actually makes my life very boring, but I hate to change things up.

The people I work with or people who do not know me very well would probably say my moodiness. I can be in a great mood, talking non-stop one day and the next day come into work and be as quiet as a mouse, depending on my mood. I hate this about myself too.

I am the exact same!

People who have lived with me usually say that I'm a mess... I never put things away. Right now my kitchen is full of dirty dishes and I have laundry from last weekend that I didn't put away yet.

Good thing I live alone now.
Still, I can barely put up with myself sometimes.


Other than that, I don't think I annoy very many people. I usually tend to go unnoticed everywhere I go. Most people find me odd but then they just avoid me. I have a really strong fear of imposing myself on people so I do everything I can to avoid annoying people (to the point of being obsessed with it)

Hmmmmmmm......do ya want the whole list.....or just the top TEN ???
Well......I'll just give you a few to contemplate.
I have been told that I am brutally HONEST.....now this can be a bad thing because its not that I just give MY opinion....but if you ask, I will oblige. I do not waste time *beating around the bush* so to speak but get right to the root of the matter and this annoys some people who apparently expect more of a *story* to go along with my opinion. Which brings me to another *peeve* of mine. I am NOT a gossip.......nor do I care to hear about other peoples problems or misfortunes UNLESS it is straight from the person themselves. When approached with what I deem *gossip* I ask the person "And you are telling me this BECAUSE?" Its not that I am cold-hearted its just that very RARELY will a story be repeated *word for word*.....it seems that the more times that it is told the more it changes You would be surprised the effectiveness of just asking them "I need to know this.......BECAUSE?" It works for me or at least it has for the past 10 years or so. It is also very hard to gain my trust....not really sure why it just always has been. I try to take care of my problems and keep my nose out of other peoples business and sometimes I think that people are in search of someone to fix their problems instead of just a friend to listen and offer some feedback. I only have the power to change MYSELF.....not ANYONE else. You know if you tell yourself that LONG ENOUGH.....you actually start to believe and live it.

the way i see it, it saves time and misunderstanding.

Wow! No one can say you have low self-esteem. I guess if you can't love yourself, no one else can. LOL. If only I had a tenth of your esteem, I know I could go far.

I am a bit of a princess....

(one time I screwed up big time, I called my sister and she said, "see if you hadn't been so God
perfect your whole life, if you had just
up everything like I did, they'd be doing jumping jacks if you brought home a D!""

and very borderline OCD....I have to measure every tablespoon when I cook, and have all the hangers facing the same direction, and all my towels have to be folded the same way with no ends showing, and all my washcloths have to be facing the same direction....it's a sickness I know.....and don't get me started on my pantry...all labels out, soups with soups rice with rice....

I think you and I could get along very well as housemates, because I'm sitting here, nodding to myself and thinking Well, of course the cans go in the pantry label-out -- how would you read them, otherwise? As for towels and hangers ... Yep, that's me, too. I don't consider myself OCD, I consider myself well-organized. (My boyfriend would say "anal retentive.") Except that I don't measure anything when I cook; I'm very whimsical about that sort of thing (fortunately I'm a very good cook!
).

Aaaw..That's such a wonderful thing to say about me. (big yay!
)
I really do love myself. Probably too much. It's sickening somedays, but that's alright. Because I love that I love myself. And I really let it show.

As for you..Hey...STOP IT! All you've got to do is look in the mirror like every day, and say "darn I'm one hot lady/women/chic/sexy mama!!"
You'll get some self-esteem soon after that! I also believe that everyone around you has an influence on how you see yourself, so let it be known that you are YOU, and you love that. That's easy.
Just fullfill yourself, do some yoga(seriously yoga has great side effects on yourself), Also, there's this class that's making it's way around the world at gyms, and I can't wait 'till it comes around here, but the exotic dancing class is supposed to make you feel just absolutly AWESOME about yourself, and become more comfortable with yourself. I'm stoked.
You're beautiful in every which way, believe it or not. No one is you, no one can look like you..Also, singing &dancing in the shower in the morning can get a great start to your day.


Just rambling...SEE I DID IT AGAIN! I forgot what I was initially talking about. Lucky for me, this is typed and I can up-scroll. Wow, Wish I had an up-scroll for real life.
But my point is you..You are a great person, and WE all know that. I wanna just hug the heck outta you right now!

Ha! Got y'all questioning that one huh? Hmmm, now that I think about it, maybe a dinner/shower combo wouldn't be a bad time saver!

This is one of the times I'm glad DH isn't a member here. I'm sure he'd be happy to rattle off a list of 50 or 60 things about me that tick him off.


The ones that I can think of are that I tend to be very optimistic...sometimes maybe a tad too much, I'm very talkative and can be too loud, and I'm always late. (I don't mean to be...in fact I try to be early, but it just never works out that way.)
