Things that are irritating me

So I actually removed someone from facebook for the first time because they offended me, I actually don’t really need them on my facebook they are my sisters longest friend’s brother who I use to hang around with when I was ickle. I don’t tend to talk about my religion because I don’t feel the need to push it on people and I am not the perfect Christian at all. It was something small which most people would not find offensive but if I don’t force my view I don’t expect people to force theirs on me (Although a lot do). He was annoyed because of all the religious posts people put on their facebook, but there is this great thing about facebook where you can hide people’s annoying statuses or even better a remove button. No instead he has a rant on his saying how he doesn’t want to see their religious posts (still not offended at the moment), how he will remove anyone who keeps posting them (yeah not offended because I don’t) but then he goes on to say how Jesus is imaginary. That is his view yes, but not mine and it pissed me off. I asked a girl at work if I should be offended or not because I wouldn’t want to overreact and she is not religious but said if she was me she would be offended. So instead of moaning about it on my facebook and pushing my beliefs on everyone – I removed him. Honestly, I don’t actually think it’s that offensive (I have heard worse) but I don’t really want people telling me what is or isn’t imaginary. Don’t get me wrong, if you don’t believe that is your choice and I won’t really go into a conversation with people about it. I have my reasons just as everyone has theirs not to believe, or have a different culture (although I find it interesting to learn about them), or even if you are not sure.

That is just one thing, at the moment a lot of things are getting irritating and I wonder how long it will be before I snap. People keep talking down to me, like I am a child or don’t know because for whatever reason (maybe they think I am stupid). I wouldn’t say I am stupid or a child, I have my moments when I come out with ditzy things or I say something that is stupid (this does not make me stupid/thick). I can’t say I am intelligent but I am always willing to learn, if I don’t understand something I ask, I don’t tend to get jokes but I think that is just me. I don’t mind people telling me something I already know but the way people say it you would honestly think I was a child or stupid. I wonder why people do this, does it make them feel superior or do they honestly not see that I am 25 years old with a kid of my own (who I will say is well behaved most of the time) he is still alive and well looked after so surely they should see that. My sister does this a fair bit but that is the way she is, she thinks I am incapable of driving because of the one time I drove to bingo but my problem is if I don’t know where I am going I do talk nervously (this is my nature). But I am fully capable of getting to my home town which is over a 100 miles away with my son in the car, I have not had a crash (touch wood I don’t) but my confidence drops when she is in the car judging me.

I am going to stop, I am getting irritable about the irritating things…
