What things rattle your cage..

[secrets22]

And i have many things which annoy me, for i absolutely loath braggers,and i hate people who say,but my car is better than yours,and i am far better off than you,and whatever i have, some people always say they have better,even to what i wear and what i also eat,it really is not important ,and why should anyone care,but jealousy and envy are nasty traits to have.

I have a friend,and i use the word friend loosely,for wherever i've been,she's been there too but stayed in much better accommodation, and whatever i have in my home she has better,even her dog she says is better than mine,and these kind of people can wear you down if you let them.

I do not understand people, for i dont have a jealous or envious bone in my body,i take people for who they are and not for what they have,or for what they do.

Some ppl are in a constant competitive state against others and its truly a sickening state to be in. I truly pity them.

[secrets22 in reply to Imaaan]

i absolutely agree.

[Imaaan in reply to secrets22]

Arrogant, self centered,disrespectful and unkind individuals rattle my cage. I absolutely cant stand those that never self reflect on their negative behavior and amend their ways. Equally cant stand those that show off and like to embarrass others.

To me, secrets, that would be more than an irritation. It’s more like a one sided competition. Look at me….see how wonderful I am….don’t you wish you were like me, me , me. Even if they showed some kindness occasionally, they would expect praise for it….see how kind I am? That kind of an irritation I would do without. 🥴

I think I just repeated what Imaaan said. 🤭

[Imaaan in reply to Isinatra]

A case of great minds think alike?

^Was that a praise or a moment of hallelujah or as Oprah calls it an "a ha moment???

[Isinatra in reply to Imaaan]

Me thinks a little of each. 😁

[secrets22]

sadly my friend there are many people who are jealous and envious,and regarding my car,it is a new one,but tiny,and actually cars have no interest to me as long as it gets me from A toB. Its so good to know you and that we are very like minded.

good wishes

Roddy.

A member of my partner’s family is a bragger, he’s arrogant & doesn’t have anything nice to say apart for himself. He thinks he’s a joker & smart but comes across rude. The family defends him probably cos he’s not that bright & feels sorry for him. Im not jealous of them, it’s the way they go on. They must be so insecure.

My late father was the same saying insulting things to people and then claiming it was a joke and under the arrogant demeanour was an extremely unhappy man who Now I am sorry for however I'm not making up excuses for him as child abuse is unacceptable no matter what the circumstances.

I forgave as a gift for me and for my own peace of mind nothing to do with anyone else!

I have an in-law relative just like that - always bragging. The rest of the family intensely dislikes him and tries hard to avoid him. Often people who brag actually have very little to brag about and very few real accomplishments. That is the case with this relative. If I were you I would end this so called friendship.
