People annoy me

Post Reply New Topic

More than anything else, people just annoy the crap out of me. It's not so much fear or anxiety, or lack of connection with them or any of that stuff. I mean I do have those issues too but bottom line, all other things being equal, people just annoy me. I am perplexed by human behavior and I have really low tolerance for it.

Can other people here relate to this? Is this normal in people with Asperger's, or does it sound more like a different issue?

People often annoy me too. We're just annoying creatures.

I find that at times the mere existence of people and their ways pisses me off beyond belief.
And I am annoyed with my ability to get annoyed as well..

I tend to observe humans as if they are a different species than myself.
Sometimes I get really frustrated with the way they are, and how they can't just be straight-forward, honest and simple about some things.
It's just how life is, I guess. Gotta learn to deal with it.

Are you actually a crow?

I find 90% of people annoying. It's their lack of self-awareness that pisses me off I think.

In any case, when folks fall on my nerves, I have to make a conscious effort to remind myself that I am a minority, and that being born with a condition is not anyone's fault.
Subconsciously, I feel superior, but no one is to blame for annoying me because they are normal. People deserve respect regardless of what cards nature dealt them, so I remain condescending to normative people in my heart but still treat them with respect in the real world.

Being pissed at most people is a side effect of who we are, I'm afraid, but we can learn to accept that fact.

You can't argue with facts anyway.

everyone annoys me, NT, aspie, BPD, BP, schizophrenics, they're all mostly annoying, and the worst part is how they think every other group but them is annoying.

Me, I'm a Dudeist.

My default reaction to others tends to be annoyance - even family members or friends that I would generally say I am fond of. As someone above me said, this mostly seems to stem from their gross lack of self-awareness. I can't stand a person with what, to me, seems to be a hesitant or ignorant personality, or someone that can't grasp ideas or concepts as quickly as I can. Even something as small as being asked to repeat myself really hits me the wrong way.

I wonder if this might have something to do with an Aspie's lack of empathy. Without even realizing it, we sort of expect people to react in certain ways and be capable of certain things, and when they aren't it's difficult for us to accept that without feeling annoyance.

I keep hoping that one day I'll find someone that doesn't irritate me, but thus far, it has not happened. Even my girlfriend can be quite irritating.

They annoy me too; that's "people", i.e., humanity in its current social form.

Especially when they boss you around (do this, do that, do this and that and that and this, because I said so!), as if you're somehow inferior or part of a collective*, and when they bully you.

*I can't remember signing into society, do you?
