Ever get all stressed out over something most would consider silly?

It takes all different stressors to get people all worked up. Sometimes it's just a tiny little thing that really bothers us. I had this happen today. I'm still in a bad mood over it. It has to do with clothing. All because I could not find jeans in my size at my favorite store. When I went online to their website, I could not find the size in stock there either. This really has me wondering. Do you ever get stressed out over little things?

Everyday. I take things very seriously. I have no sense of humor and I worry about everything. My husband thinks I am being silly, but I always say someone has to worry about it.

I have a great sense of humor. But sometimes things just get me really down and stressed out. It's usually stuff that by the next day I'm fine and have forgotten all about it. Us ladies are so weird like that.

A few days ago I was stressed out upon finding a rare action figure I have been looking for since high school on sale in ebay for a very low price--but it wasn't the local ebay, so despite the low price tag it will be expensive because of shipping charges, and it might take too long to arrive or even get lost along the way. I tried not to show it, but I was really stressed and annoyed because I can't get it. Thankfully, after some more searching here and with a bit of luck, I found it lying around in some faraway store. Now I'm happy :)

That would be quite annoying. Stuff like that would stress me out to. I guess living in the States makes the eBay world a bit better. Shipping is usually very reasonable. Ebay is great but sometimes it makes me depressed because I see all these things I want, but can't get.

Yeah I have been like that a lot lately. It's annoying. I remember when I used to let things roll right off and barely be bothered. I don't know when or why things changed. I miss those days of not worrying over nonsense.

I tend to start letting little details bother me when I am preparing for company or for a cookout etc.I will get hung up over something little like the color of the plastic cups I buy ....or something like that and my hubby and kids laugh at me. They kid me that 'the guests are all going to leave because the cups aren't right .' Ha!

I totally agree with you. I get like that too. I try to make everyhing be perfect. I tend to think too much about they may think when they see whatever. I do not know why we drive ourselves crazy with stuff like this. I'm sure our guest won't be bothered. hehe

I do quite often. I manage better when in public but keep 'blowing my top' at home. It does relieve the pressure within me but sometimes the other members of my family have to tread on eggshells. The latest was my husband saying his friends thought his hair cut was not done very well. I got all ratty and said we had taken ages to find the lady but if he wanted to get another he could or he could go to the barber. I am so glad he forgave me the next day but he was rather cross that evening.

It seems like us ladies get stressed so easily over the little things. I know it drives my boyfriend crazy. From time to time it happens to him but he gets all sorts of cranky and will deny everything. Typical male! lol

All the time. I am going to assume (since I haven't look at your profile) that you are a female. We chicks have it in us to get majorily stressed out over little things, which means most of the time there is something hidden a bit deeper that we haven't dealt with yet.
You know the straw that broke the camels back.

I am a chick indeed. We definitely stress about stuff far more than guys. It's really a pain!
