My pet peeves
Everyone has what they like and what they don’t like, so for that reason, we shouldn’t just act irrational about anything towards people.
I can tolerate a lot of things from people, but when people start playing with my emotions, then I will definitely move away from them because I don’t joke with my emotions and my mental health.

Here are three things I don’t like, and it annoys me when people do it around me.
First thing taking me for granted: there are lots of people who love taking others for granted, and I can testify to that because I have been taken for granted countless times, which made me realize that it is not everyone we can be open-minded with; some people believe you are not capable, and they take advantage of you.
In my former house, I have a neighbor who loves to ask things from me a lot, and she knows I am still struggling just like her, but because I have whatever she asked for, it doesn’t bother me.
One day she asked for my cylinder; I was on my way to work, so I rushed in to get it for her and then left for work, only for me to come back and meet my empty cylinder outside of my apartment. I never knew she had used it to finish, so I took it inside. When I wanted to cook, I discovered that the gas had finished, and my neighbor didn’t bother to inform me so that I could get it filled before it was too late. Well, it wasn’t her fault anyway.
The next morning she came back again to ask for a seasoning cube, and I gave her one. Immediately she collected it and said, “I don’t like this brand of cube.” I smiled and then went back inside; she didn’t bother to say sorry for the gas; instead, she still bragged about what she came to beg for. Ever since then, I knew she was taking me for granted, so I stopped giving her things since I was only trying to help.
Secondly, playing with my emotions and feelings: when someone plays with my feelings and emotions, it hurts me more than anything because I don’t see any reason why another person should hurt someone because of what they want to gain from the person.
My emotions and feelings matter to me a lot because I don’t forget things easily, so when someone hurts my feelings, it takes more time to heal from whatever they do, and that is why whenever I notice something or someone that would hurt my feelings, I move as far as I can to prevent myself from getting hurt.
Thirdly, avoiding me: this annoys me a lot because we are all human beings, which means nobody is perfect, so when someone makes mistakes, I expect them to apologize and then let everything go, but no, some people prefer to avoid you till eternity simply because they don’t want to accept that they are at fault, and they don’t want to apologize or make up for their wrongdoing. It annoys me when some avoid me, so when I notice you are the type that avoids people, I wouldn’t want to have anything to do with you because it makes me uncomfortable when some avoid me.
