I’ll second @TabernakAttack ‘s “mindgames” as one of the top annoyances. One of the classics is an uber-peeve of mine.
==Rock==
Her: “Do these pants make me look fat?”
Me: “Yes, they do.”
Her: “You’re so insensitive”
Me: ”- _ -”
Or
==Hard Place==
Her: “Do these pants make me look fat”
Me: “No, they don’t”
Her: “Are you lying to me just to make me feel good? Just be honest!”
Me: ”- _ -”
Or the other classic example:
==Rock==
Her: “Do you want to go to the store with me?”
Me: “Not really.. I just end up following you around with the cart and waiting while you look at all the nutrition information or the price on everything that goes into the cart”
Her: “You never want to do things with me.”
==Hard Place==
Her: “Do you want to go to the store with me?”
Me: “Sure, honey”
Also Me: For hours following her around with the cart: ”- _ -”
==and so I…..==
Hate: High Maintenance (it’s Wednsday.. time for my weekly pedicure), Valley-Girl-ness (Like, OMG you guys), Overly-Opinionated (always has to be right)
Like: Honesty (even if it need be brutal), Adventurous, Relaxed and Easy Going (not intense and in-my-face)
