Saaaame. Hey last night my upstairs neighbors clogged the drain on the washer and caused water to cascade down my living room wall. No one was murdered. I feel like I am progressing as a person.
Growing for sure. I might have been in an episode of SNAPPED. 🙄🤪

If someone else’s mistakes directly affected me…if they were habitual, I would cut them off because I can only do so much to help them out of said mistake, but done too many times just mean they’re a messy person and thrive in drama or loose planning.
With patience…I take into a account that everyone makes mistakes. My problem is that I have trouble voicing that someone is making a mistake that is affecting me. I usually just try and work around it. Which is probably not the healthiest approach.
If it’s the first mistake, I’ll give them a pat on the back and let it go. We all make mistakes. The second time, I’ll look on without a word and that’s dangerous because the third time, I’ll rant. My African proverbial tortoise says that same mistake the third time can’t be allowed to pass unnoticed. I forgive anyway.
Mistakes happen. Is it the server’s fault that the restaurant is out of a menu item, and they didn’t know when they took the oder? No – it’s not that big a deal. When my “birthday cake” plate got broken, well, stuff happens. I was actually more concerned about my husband and the pets then the breakage. When a company did a bait and switch, and said it was MY mistake, and no refunds etc? Well, that meant cancelling the card, returning the merchandise and reporting fraud. It’s all in the context, you know?
Unfortunately either with angry or disappointment, although i think that I should first try to understand why they did what they did and then react, hopefully i can change that about myself soon 🙌🏼
Sonder. They have just as many things going on in their lives, as I do. Really, I just try to remember that people are products of their environments. If I’m able to “educate” them, I try to but I’ll mainly, I’ll let it be.
Very carefully…take a deep breath and let it all go.
At least I try to…
Very poorly and I’d expect the same from them.

Problem solve if necessary 🙂
I yell.
I try to be understanding and start off well, but by the end of the day I’m drained and blaming them.
Not well to be honest – if you make a stuff up once I can do that, but more than once I don’t react well.

I don’t like it, but I have short temper. TBH sometimes I yell at others, which I regret later.

Oh Well! Life is too, too short!

Instant irritation, followed directly by an attempt to understand where the other person is coming from, remembering I’m not perfect either.
We’ve been struggling with this one since Adam & Eve (as per scripture)
