16 Qualities I Hate In People

"Being manipulative is not a positive thing."

16 Qualities I Hate In People
vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net

Being manipulative is not a positive thing. If the only way that you can get through life is to manipulate everyone you meet, even your loved ones, that's just sad.

1. Alcoholics

If you have a drink in your hand every single time I see you, or if you have to have a drink to have fun, that's just ridiculous and absurd.

2. Big-mouthed

Gossiping is childish. It's one thing to gossip every once in a while, but the people that only ever gossip and talk about nothing else- I can't stand those people.

3. Childish (applies to adults)

I feel as though there is a difference between being childish and being immature. To me, being childish is best described as middle adult behaving similar to a toddler.

4. Dependent


I'm not talking about slightly dependent, I'm talking about those people that honest to God would crumple up and die if they weren't with someone for so much as five minutes.

5. Oblivious

This is just painful. I've met someone who is honestly so oblivious, you could talk about them to their face and they still wouldn't understand.

6. When someone doesn't laugh, they just say "That's so funny!"

This is just plain annoying. Is it really funny? Is it?

7. Idiotic

I need people to be at least slightly intelligent, otherwise holding a conversation is painful. You'd be surprised at the number of people who don't have a vocabulary above an 8th-grade level- it's annoying to have to stop and define words every other sentence.

8. Lewd

Being frank, I can't stand people who are known for sleeping around or cheating.

9. Liar

I hate liars. I hate when people blatantly lie, and I hate when people don't stick with their stories if they do lie- it's just pathetic.

10. Melodramatic

If you exaggerate everything that happens in your life, I can't stick around.

11. Overly-sensitive

Oh my god, if you can't take even the smallest amount of criticism, if you cry when someone doesn't cling to you- I can't handle that (mostly because I don't know how to deal with other people's emotions).

12. Selfish

This sort of ties in with narcissistic, but selfishness doesn't always match the narcissism level. I don't deal with selfish people, it's a waste of my time.

13. Unsophisticated

This isn't a big deal when you think about general unsophistication. I get that not all of us are sitting in the living room sipping champagne and laughing about whatever our neighbor's drama is, hell I'm not doing that. However, when you're starting nuclear arguments with guests, you have some serious thinking to do.

14. Vain

When you have the rest of these characteristics and you think that you're "all that", oh no.

15. Gluttonous/ Materialistic

Again, as with dependent, there is a line. It's all right if you have three cars to yourself or a closet full of expensive clothes. It's more than annoying when you spend what seems to be 80% of your monthly paycheck on things you will never need.

16. Immature

When you've been out of your sorority for 15 years, but you still act like the television stereotype of a blond sorority sister that drinks her days away and gossip about everything under the Sun, please stop.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
