He/She Sets me off!

Well after reading what you wrote I will probably set you off...because of what I am about to say. There is an immutable Law of Atraction that draws people together...and many times they come into our lives to teach us something about ourselves. What we often dislike in others...are the things we are denying about ourselves...the other person can be a mirror for something we need to address inwardly. Human beings notice in others...what they either do or do not like within their own mindsets. If I have a fixation about weight...I will compare my body shape to others. You know the old "thou dost protest too much" idea. We fixate on things that are in our awareness...and miss most everything else. Another example is what is called the 'pregnant lady syndrome.' Until a friend gets pregnant we may not be conscious of how many women are 'expecting.' Once it comes into our awareness that someone we know is having a baby...you see many more than ever before..on the mall, at parties...pregnant wormen everywhere. They were there before...but not on our radar screen. We had that happen when we bought a white car. Never noticed white cars before...now we have trouble finding ours in a parking lot. Awareness...what is life telling you? Maybe you are just feeling inwardly cranky, frustrated and fed up with things generally...and all the folks you've been attracting are just an outer mirror for something in your inner landscape. Or...maybe you have outgrown the people you've been collecting and you may need to find some people more attuned to where you want to be. Just a few persepctives...you can accept them or reject them...but I do hope you won't be so angry that you end up giving me a - just for stating my opnion.LOL Take breath, cool down, center...life is too short to hold on to all that anger. Hope you find some fun, laughter and inner peace soon...sounds like you could use it. Good luck!

yup, i've encountered this before..like i see someone and he/she just gets on my nerves and i really can't stand being around that person. there are some of these people at work, i try to avoid but sometimes i can't. i still try to be nice to them although at times i really cannot stand them.

My step-father really sets me off. He is always getting on my case about getting out of college. I love going to college and I have a difficult time learning at times, so he needs to get off of his high horse and give me a break.

Oh yes, there was someone where I used to live like this. We just both grated on each other from our first meeting, and after that, we were better off avoiding each other entirely. The problem, of course, was that we traveled in the same social circles for a while, so it wasn't always easy to avoid each other. Eventually I moved on and started running with a different circle of friends, and successfully avoided this guy for the rest of the time I lived there. There was one near run-in, but that was averted.

People set me off too. For example these guys that live next door with the sports cars. They keep skidding tires and burning them until the nasty smoke gets through my 3rd floor windows. Meanwhile I'm asthmatic and I can't breathe because of all the polution. I had to use myinhaler 4 times already. It's like don't these kids have respect? I mean I understand they are young and energetic and want to have fun, but what's so fun about burning tires?? Don't they just ruin it and have to buy more? I hate it soooo much!
