I have a list of people I really don’t like to be around. It’s a very short list, only having 3 or 4 people on it. I’m not going to list names here, it’s not important and not my style.
Why are people on this list? It’s because they make things awkward. Really awkward. And they’ve been told to stop on numerous occasions by different people, but don’t.
Now, by all accounts, I shouldn’t care. They haven’t done anything to me personally, other than perhaps violating my personal space. But it bugs me that they don’t seem to care about the feelings of anyone around them.
Now, it’s gotten to the point where I don’t really want to be in the same room as these people, and it’s starting to ruin my mood when they show up to events. I feel like I’m enabling these people by being around them, and avoiding them often isn’t possible.
However, I realize this isn’t a positive trait in myself.
So, my question to all of you: How do you deal with people like this?
