Patty Posted May 12, 2001 Share Posted May 12, 2001 Last night I went in to chat like I normally do.and we all started chatting and I started feeling a little irritated when 2 people asked me questions to something that they already knew the answer too.They were asking me where they could find senior pen pals.I would think that they probably already knew that? Afterwards one of the people went and found the pen pal site with seniors with no problem.And after I thought well if she already knew the answer to this, well why did she ask me.It really irritates me.Should I tell her how I feel? It seemed to me that she did know. Link to post Share on other sites
Tony T Posted May 12, 2001 Share Posted May 12, 2001 My Dear Patty: On a scale of 1 to 1000 of things to get upset about, this situation is about a minus 1,000,000. If something this insignificant can rile you up so, you have got a most serious anger and frustration problem that may need psychological intervention. Everyday, minor things will happen that will irk you if you allow them to. Today, make a vow to yourself that because you love yourself and care about yourself, you will not allow yourself to become all bent out of shape over such trivia. There are so many millions of things far more serious to get worked up about. Try getting upset about global warming, animal abuse or the possibility of nuclear war. If somebody asks you a question and they already know the answer, give it to them. Maybe they want to be sure. And feel sorry for their ignorance. But to let this bother you to the point of posting on the Internet...well, wow, you sure aren't very nice to yourself if you let yourself get peeved about something so petty. I don't mean to cut you down or anything but this is pretty wild stuff here. Is there something more serious bothering you now in your life??? Tell us about it. Link to post Share on other sites
Laurynn Posted May 13, 2001 Share Posted May 13, 2001 ..it is rather ridiculous, that you would make such a big thing out of something so inanely trivial. This is a relationship forum, how did your lifechanging problem relate to relationships, exactly? L Link to post Share on other sites
