Personality Traits You Hate

I'm with you, woman. You don't look me in the eye when you talk to me, or when I talk to you, I instinctively distrust you.

I hate when people talk way too much about absolutely nothing - or how they'll go on and fucking ON about how they knew so-and-so in school or college and tell me how they saw them and all the details of the conversation.

I hate people who speak slowly, people who never have a point, when someone lies blatantly, or base their opinions in something completely untrue et cetera et cetera. I hate slow drivers, I hate people who can't meet deadlines, I hate people who are never on time, I can't stand when people are indecisive.

This is the worst question to ask me. I hate pretty much everyone. ;_;

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Are you addressing me?

Because there are far fewer traits I love than the traits I hate. I am an overly-selective bitch.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I really can't stand it when people chew with their mouths open, examine their food, talk with their mouths full or pick through their food with their fingers. No offense, but men seem to have waaaaay worse table manners overall than women. I think some guys think it's manly to eat like a pig.

My mother would have slapped me out of my chair if I had eaten like that at her table.

You're so silly. Food is for putting in your mouth, any way you can. Men don't care much for ridiculous ritual or multi-forked tables. Women care about looking pretty and doing things in a "civilized" manner.

I was raised with impeccable manners. I ignore almost every single one of them these days unless I am in a really upper-scale place where I'd get kicked out otherwise.

More things I dislike:
People who have more clothes than their house can handle. People who get their nails done on a regular basis only to be hindered in daily life. So I guess we could say thats pretty much beauty before logic.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

You know it's something you have a hard time with. Why just accept it and say that you "can't help it"? Your mind is strong. You can do amazing things with it. Just tell your eyes what to do and they'll do it. It might not be within your comfort zone, but sometimes you have to suck it up and make yourself do things that are hard, for your own good.

Of course, like you said, there are legitimate conditions that make it almost impossible for some people to maintain eye contact, but for most people it's something that you just have to work on if you want to be socially acceptable.

Once again, agree.

I don't see why it would make you uncomfortable to make eye contact with people. What do you have to hide? Its a sign of little confidence to me, and I automatically write people off who show these traits.

And Alice is right - sometimes, despite your comfortability levels, you have to be a man and just do it. None of us like jury duty, none of us like dealing with the police, et cetera. There are some things in life you should just learn to live with.

If you want to get a good job and maintain healthy human relationships, you should be able to look a person in the eye.

Please don't take offense to this. ;_;

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
