What secretly annoys you, but shouldn't?

Now, don't get me wrong here - I'm not blaming the person (I think it is GREAT when people make healthy choices), but I sometimes think that the universe is being a bit unfair when a person with unhealthy eating/exercise habits can suddenly decide to eat healthy and start exercise, and almost immediately drop 10+ pounds, whereas I have for a long time eaten somewhat healthy and worked out regularly, and thus struggle to lose every single darn pound.
Gah!
Gah!

It's easy to lose when you first start. You should take pride knowing you have been maintaining the correct lifestyle for a long time. A lot of people will give up and go right back to where they were. You won't have that problem.
What secretly annoys me are people that eat anything and everything and don't exercise at all, yet are skinny naturally. Those people who are blessed with a naturally high metabolism and can eat fried chicken, chips, and ice cream all day and never gain a pound. This is my man. Great for him. Drives me crazy when I am trying SO hard to eat healthy and exercise and he's sitting there snacking on doritos watching tv and is as skinny as ever. Love the man, but why is the universe so unfair?!0 -
This use to bother me for the longest time because my brother's were always normal sized while I was overweight. We were eating the same things. Well they were eating within their maintenance whereas I was overeating and therefore gaining weight.
when it comes to the pudge we are all carrying, it comes down to we were eating too much and therefore we are now wearing it.
. Some people are blessed and are able to eat food and naturally eat within their maintenance calorie level. Some of us can't and therefore we find our selves here.
ETA: No reason you can't still have foods you enjoy on a daily basis and still lose weight.0 -
When people around me make stupid decisions, like moving in together after 2 weeks. Not my business, shouldn't annoy me but it does. And it's secretly, because i keep my mouth shut about it.0

This too! Why do some people magically know how much food they should be eating, whereas many of us have to resort to limiting/measuring/resisting, etc.0 -
I would annoy the everlovin' piss out of you.When people around me make stupid decisions, like moving in together after 2 weeks. Not my business, shouldn't annoy me but it does. And it's secretly, because i keep my mouth shut about it.0 -
I am assuming it worked for you cause I remember you saying something about a husband on a different thread. But if you guys moved in together after 2 weeks, holy f, didn't how fast things were moving scare the **** out of you?

People who lack general awareness of their body in space. I'll be running on the track and a older lady will just cross right out in front of me while I'm running. I know she knows there's a track there-- I mean, she's walking on it, she has to know it's there-- but she doesn't realize her body takes up space, and that two bodies cannot occupy the same space. Or when people walk side by side on a narrow track. I realize it's nice to talk and walk, but then you have to be aware of others around you.
In a more general sense, I hate it when people just stop and block a hallway, without bothering to move to the side. People aren't thinking.
Shouldn't annoy me as much as it does.0 -
Meh. I know people who got engaged after a couple week of dating so eh.0

people that make excuses for why they can't do things they see others doing
young kids in the gym spending more time texting and flexing their wanna be abs in the mirror than actually working out. move the hell out of my way i am trying to workout here
naked old men in the locker rooms who don't use a towel... i dont care to see you and your balls dragging across the floor when i am going to take a leak0 -

When 1CG wouldn't move in or marry me after two weeks. I even offered to take her *kitten* out for a steak dinner. </30 -
Yup. Been with my husband almost 5 years now, and our little boy will be four in April.

YES. YOU DID THAT MATH RIGHT. I was pregnant within two weeks of moving in with my husband, and it was on purpose.
Oh, and we moved in together before we went on our first date. In all fairness though, I had known him for three months prior to that.
Bwahahahahaha, like I said, I'd annoy the ever lovin' piss out of you. That being said, I *do* agree that in most cases, that's extremely annoying. My husband and I are a definite exception to the rule. One of those, "When you know, you know." sorta things.0 -

That's awesome!
I work with that skinny, can-eat-everything, doesn't work out girl that annoys the crap out of me. Thing is, I can't stand her work or personality-wise either so that just adds to it.0 -

"I'm having a terrible day! I can't believe this happened! OMG!!"
"Girl, you ok? What happened?"
"I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!"
Then why the *kitten* did you make a facebook post about it????0 -

Do you know what seriously annoys me?
Going out to dinner, feeling the pressure the spend the normal $10-$15 on dinner when the calories that I need to consume will be fulfilled with a dinner salad and possibly a soup.
Why the hell do restaurants not offer more 'Real Food' options? And even with the options that they do have, why do they still overdue the portion sizes?
I always thought that calorie content should be porportionate to cost of food.0 -

Agh this! Also on the sidewalk - I'm a fast walker, and if you are a slower walker that is fine, I will wait or go around you. But if you are a slow walker, don't walk side by side with 3 people or cut in front of me!0 -

^ THIS!
I had a huge fight with a friend about this last week. he had been in a bad mood for weeks and kept posting about it on fb.
when I saw him in person at dinner with another mutual friend I said I saw his post, and I asked what was bothering him,
he said "Well I'm not going to tell you!" - SERIOUSLY? WTF?!
My response was exactly what u just said - WTF POST ABOUT IT ON FB??0 -

I do believe in "when it's meant to be". I just never experienced it. Hell, it takes me 1 month or so just to figure out if i really like the guy.Bwahahahahaha, like I said, I'd annoy the ever lovin' piss out of you.

You are definitely the exception to the rule, and if i am being completely honest, i am quite jealous of your story because i never felt so sure and confident about a relationship in my life.0 -
When Americans refer to me as "European" as it was a nationality. It´s not!!! I´m Swedish!.0

Love the cajones. You know what you like and go after it. Your story did take my breath away a bit, but it's awesome.0 -
These are the same people who block whole grocery aisles with their shopping carts, park in the left lane of the highway going 50, pull out too close in front of you only to not accelerate... if it's not evident, I have road rage issues... I listen to a lot of Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me in the car to keep my blood pressure down. *sigh*
I think the list of things that annoy me that shouldn't is WAAAAY too long...
**Edited to note that this is a response to several posts ago about people blocking sidewalks and stuff... not the posts right near me. Cuz that would be weird... and it wouldn't makes sense, would it?0 -

My age.0 -
When I'm at work and someone runs in to get something, "it'll just take a second" and leave their kid in the car. It drives me absolutely mad.
I also *really* hate when people go GF to lose weight and don't go totally GF and will go out and get some things gluteny and somethings not or say, "its okay, I'll pick off the croutons/bread/etc" and then I go in and get sick because servers are getting tons of mixed information and not taking actual gluten intolerance seriously because so many people do it as a fad....0 -
People who take themselves too seriously.
And people who call me "honey" or "darling" or any variation of "sweetie words," or who tell me "jesus loves you". It makes me want to punch them in the teeth. Hard.0
