The Top 3 Behaviors That Push Me to the Edge

Honestly, there are way more than just three things that annoy me, but let me just stick to the top three that really get on my nerves and sometimes make me lose it. These are things I’ve experienced more than once, and anytime they happen again, it just triggers something in me. Maybe you can relate, maybe not, but these things truly make me feel some type of way.

1.Fake Promises

This one tops the list for me. I absolutely hate it when someone makes a promise and then doesn’t keep it. Like, why even promise in the first place? Just say you’re not sure or that you can’t do it — it’s way better than getting my hopes up for nothing. It annoys me when someone promises to do something and, when the time comes, they start coming up with all sorts of excuses. Sometimes the excuses don’t even make sense, and you can just tell they never planned to fulfill that promise in the first place. What makes it worse is when you’ve been counting on them or have made plans based on what they promised. And then boom, they leave you hanging. That feeling of being disappointed by someone you trusted or believed in? It’s honestly the worst. I’d rather you never promised at all. Just be real from the start.

2.Being Looked Down On or Talked Down To

Another thing that makes my blood boil is when someone tries to belittle me or act like I’m beneath them. I don’t care who you are — you have no right to talk to me like I’m not human or like I don’t matter. I’ve actually had a falling out with a friend because of this. He thought he could say anything to me, anyhow, and I wouldn’t react. Maybe he thought I was too calm or soft or something, but that day, I had to show him that I won’t tolerate disrespect. I’m not someone who goes around looking for trouble or starting fights, but I also won’t sit back and let someone talk to me like I’m trash. I believe everyone deserves to be spoken to with respect, and if you can’t do that, then don’t expect me to just smile and keep quiet.

3.People Who Always Want to Collect But Never Give

This last one really irritates me. There are some people who always want to collect from others — money, favors, help, attention — but they never give anything back. They’re just takers, and I honestly can’t stand that. Relationships, whether it’s friendship or family or anything else, should be a two-way street. But some people just take and take like it’s their birthright, and when it’s time to give back or show support, they’re suddenly too busy or they just disappear. I can’t vibe with selfish people like that. Life is already hard enough — if we can’t look out for each other and share, then what’s the point? I’ve cut people off for being like this because I don’t want to be surrounded by those who only remember me when they need something.

So yeah, those are just three of the many things that annoy me. Maybe it’s because I value honesty, respect, and balance in relationships, but when people fail in these areas, it just rubs me the wrong way. I try to stay calm and understanding, but I’m only human too. Once you cross that line with me, it’s hard for me to look at you the same again.
