Smile Re: Things people do which drive you nuts !

Constant nagging drives me up the wall.

Her: Can you do X?

Me: Yes, when I finish doing Y for you.

Her: Do it now!

Me: I'm doing Y, what difference does it make if I do X or Y first? Look it'll only take me a little while to do Y and then I'll do X!

Her: All right, don't get stroppy.

...30 seconds pass...

Her: Have you done X yet?

Me: No, I'm still finishing Y.

...60 seconds pass...

Her: Have you done X yet?

Me: No, I'm still still finishing Y.

Her: You never do anything, only think about yourself!

Me: I'm doing X and Y for you .

Then she slams the door and walks off in a huff. That's not the end though because weeks or months later she'll drag up the fact you didn't do X for her when she asked and as a result she questions your comitment to a serious relationship.

------------------------

I then learned the art of "Yes dear" and it works a treat .

Or the lad who stands within 1 inch of you when waiting behind you in a queue. As if that makes the queue go faster.
