those types that constantly try to get on your good side

[TurdBerglar]

what causes this?

you know that type.

that girl at work that constantly brings in baked goodies and homemade sweets. then tries to force them down your throat because you're not accepting them and can't comprehend that someone just might not like sweets... how can anyone not like sweets! that dude that just agrees with everything you say and doesn't understand why you don't like him... since you have so much in common! when your girlfriend/boyfriend does your laundry for you and gets pissed because you rewash everything because they used fabric softener and you can't stand fabric softener... "you don't appreciate anything I do for you!"... oh fuck off.

stop kissing my ass and maybe you'll get some respect.

i dunno about the rest of it but i feel you on the sweets thing. i hate sugar rushes and about half the time i get real weird bowel stuff from it, i'm just not into it. but then if you're in a group thing and someone's like "i brought goodies!" and everyone else gets excited, you can't be the guy who's like "oh no thank you, they give me weird bowel stuff half the time" because then you look like a jerk who hates joy (and mind you, i'm starting to)

[TurdBerglar]

i'm always that guy that says no. why should I be forced into something I don't like just to please someone else's petty ego stroke. maybe I should start playing by the rules...nah. I don't even know what the rules are.

depends on if you care about upsetting people or not really

[Waus]

I know who you mean.

The worst thing is - I really try hard to just like people for no good reason, but often I can't. I meet a lot of people who within 5 seconds I know I'm not ever going to really enjoy being around, but I continually try to convince myself I shouldn't feel that way.

I only really care about upsetting someone if it's a legitimate reason for being upset or if they get pissed and come back at me with more bullshit. people have a really hard time dealing with honesty. I fucking love honesty.

some people just suck or their perfectly fine people and you just don't gel with them. don't worry about it. I've never understood forced friendliness. then again my feelings rarely get hurt.

I just dwell on it way too much. I think to myself "why don't I like them?"

If I told them the reasons, e.g. "You think you're eloquent, but you're not. The way you talk drives me crazy." or "When you ask questions you go on and on and don't realize that you actually make no sense." or "Your sense of humor was appropriate to freshmen in college, it needs to develop."

I can't not know the reasons either, because I try to figure it out until I have some idea. On the other hand, maybe it's me. :confused:

oh man those are great things to say to people. i'd love to say something like that to some dude that has his nose so far up his own ass.

This gal I used to work with keeps trying to get me to like her pages on facebook and go to her things and I just want to scream YOU ARE DUMB AND I DON'T WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND STOP BEING SO WEIRD AND CREEPY. But I'm too nice so really I'm the problem.

I don't think you're the problem. It's been over 6 months now, and this girl at my old job (who was sadly the cause for me leaving - I loved that job) still tries to friend me on Fb. She knows very well why I can't stand her.

I think it's ultimately low self-esteem, and the only way this 'type' can feel they're going to make it (other than doing their job) is by making themselves the center of attention. I love how they're so easy to spot, too. Master manipulators as well.

I work about 12 feet from the executive directors office,so I am privy to observing people make absolute fools of themselves seeking favor or recognition...it's so demeaning and the director see's right through it...silly sods...but on the other hand people give me stuff bescause they like me,they really,really,like me...and I've learned to take that as a positive reflection upon myself...

One of my staff members kisses my ass, but he's pretty accurate so I don't mind, I mean, I am a genius and I do create a relaxed atmosphere and I am nice, so I'm all thanks dude. Or "shut up" if he's being annoying.

Mostly everyone I work with is a little sassy pants though, lots of tough no nonsense girls.

Im pretty lucky, I should stop being so depressed.

that girl at work that constantly brings in baked goodies and homemade sweets.

It's not the fact that it's sweets that bothers me. I generally assume that anyone who is trying that hard is trying to mask the fact that she sucks at her actual job and is trying to get away with it. So I tend to write those people off. I don't like any kind of sucking up. Over time, I learned that some of those people are talented and can't help bringing things it to try and please people. But there will always be that part of me that looks extra hard at them to be sure they're not covering up a big flaw.

[TurdBerglar]

I kinda feel the same way about people that are nice to you for no reason. I immediately think that they're trying to make up for something rather than that person is just actually genuinely nice. I think it's from growing up in the hood and not being around the greatest of people.
