I know that each of us know particular people that rub us the wrong way. They have personality "pet peve" traits.

What drives you the battiest in your fellow human beings?

I dislike FAKE people
I dislike people who try to hard to keep up w/the Jonses
I dislike people who brag too much (talk about how smart they are, how much money they have, etc)
I dislike people who look down their noses at others.

I asked this question because I still really DONT LIKE my new sister in law!LOL!! She seems to have all the traits I mentioned above.

My bil called last night and suggested I should call her since she is having a hard time w/her infant and our 2nd child had the same medical condition(extreme colic, reflux, etc). I WANT to help her, to ease her mind, but I DONT want to talk to her!LOL!!

I have a disdain for people who are so bitter and jealous that they try to bring people down to their level. They feel so threatened by the people they are jealous of that they'll do anything to try to make that person feel inferior. Good thing most people see them for what they are, though.

Hopefully she does not read the Passporter message boards! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

ya know Steve, I think you hit the nail RIGHT on the head. She makes me feel EXACTLY the way you described. She does a VERY good job of making me feel inferior. I HATE when she does that. It makes me want to cry. I know that I am a smart person and that I have God given talents(someplace, I havent found them yet!LOL!!), but she makes me feel like a complete idiot for not finishing college and JUST staying home. Makes me feel inferior because we have a traditional marriage(MY choice to be this way. I had to convince my husband in fact!LOL!!) and I dont run our family, blah blah.

Whether you meant to or not and whether you know it or not Steve, you made me feel better. I feel like maybe I can stand up to her now. The embarrassing thing is that im OLDER than her, ive been married longer than her and I have more children and older children than her. Seems like I should be the one doing the telling!LOL!!

100.00 reward for the return of my backbone!LOL!!

Gosh, I'm glad I helped out. Kill her with kindness and do your very best not to let her get to you. Here's the thing - when she get's to you she controls you - don't let that happen, it's not worth it.

Good luck with the situation.

Someone whose been in your shoes

We will sometimes get guests in the store who come in with an attitude, especially if they need to return or exchange something. They will bitch and moan and insist on special treatment. The thing that makes me the maddest is that they would get excellent Guest Service and recieve special things if they were nice. They don't get good service just because they are nasty.

I don't like to be around jealous people. They hate other people for their successes. Or maybe just their percieved lack of success in themselves. Either way, it reallly bugs me.

[chezp]

I really dislike hypocrites and people who lie.

[Dumbo]

I dislike phoney Christians. These are the ones that tell you they're a Christian and do everything that's unGodly. This sums up most of DH's family. His brother is a "minister". They were home recently. Invited parents, and sister and sister's daughter out to dinner and maybe some other family members but failed to ask us if we wanted to go. We probably would have said no but they didn't ask. [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img] These same people have parties (PamperChef, Scrapbooking) and never invite me. [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img]

These same people look down their noses at us because we don't worship their god--money.

We know we are much happier with what little we have then they will ever be with all the toys.

Signed,

I don't want to be like them.

Gossipers. I know everyone gossips a little, but certain people I know make it a living. Ugh...
