| How tolerant are you?
Posted: 11/7/2007 3:13:30 PM | I have to admit i've tolerated a lot of crap over the years, to the point of being walked all over. My mates are always amazed at how patient i am with people, but sometimes it's a bad thing, cause it can still p1ss me right off but i don't say anything. I bottle it all up and then one day i finally blow and it's a hum dinger!
That's normally when everyone scatters 
But i have to admit not doing it as much now i'd say i'm 6 to 7/10 now instead of 9.9/10 lol and it is sooo nice to occasionally say " feck you"
oh the pleasure of being in my 30's | |

Posted: 11/8/2007 10:57:49 AM | Im very tolerant, in fact a little too much sometimes that i let people walk all over me. I put up with quite a lot from people, then one day they overstep the mark just that one more time and i blow up.
I give people way too many chances and that has to change.
Id say i put myself on a scale of 9, though someone recently pissed me off big time so now its dropped to 5 cause iv realised im so stupid and leave myself open to being used and ending up hurt.
I think the only thing in life i do not tolerate is cruelty (except to myself) and cannot tolerate racisim/discrimination of any kind. | |

If I'm not being tolerant of someone else's views I am normally tolerant of I question what stops me from being tolerant as often the answer lies within me and not them. | |

Posted: 8/3/2009 8:23:31 AM | I am not even slightly tolerant of other people or their feelings or opinions.
I will just talk over them until they give up trying to be heard and realise that in all things I am right.
People who wont be convinced of this have no place in my life.

Posted: 8/3/2009 9:18:54 AM | | ive got easier going as ive got older, but it depends on the circumstance, most of the time i just count to ten and think about my actions before i react. With people who i dont like i just bin them, no tolerance needed. | |

Posted: 8/3/2009 9:21:14 AM | | Ive become more tolerant as ive got older but i think thats down to sheer lazyness on my part as i cant be bothered with the drama so ill just nod and think "idiot" smile and move on. | |

Posted: 8/3/2009 9:33:40 AM | i'm too damned nice, i don't get road rage, i see both sides of a story and take arguments with a pinch of salt, it would take something quite serious to get me annoyed, to be quite honest, someone physically breaking my computer... with a hammer.. might make me loose my rag, if its software i'l fix it , theirs a temper in everyone, its just some people have less buttons to be pushed.
also the problem with online is that you just have to take everyones opinion at face value... i could be a total loon on this side of the keyboard.... just a thought..
... Have a nice day... | |

Posted: 8/3/2009 10:42:01 AM | it all depends who it is, how much i care about their feelings, what the situation is, and what time of the month it is.
some days i can be the most laid back erson in the world, and other days i can be a viper. | |

Read the dates!
These are the result of people doing "as they should" and bumping threads instead of starting new but redundant ones.
Or were you being sarcastic to draw people's attention to something? | |

Posted: 9/27/2009 2:23:49 AM | I'm very easy going generally speaking. However there are certain situations that trigger an adverse reaction in me. I'm talking extreme situations here though, that would upset anybody and test the patience of a saint and merit retribution.
Eg: If somebody bumps into me in a pub and spills some of my beer, then obviously I'll beat him naked through the streets with a shitty stick, to within an inch of his life. Who wouldn't ?
I don't suffer fools gladly. though thankfully I can blend in with them virtually unnoticed.
I'd say I'm a 9 on a scale of 0-10.  | |

Posted: 9/27/2009 2:42:45 AM | Only just heard yesterday from a friend of friend that she'd described me 'as too nice and tolerant for my own good'. I KNOW lol.
My tolerance level with bullsh@~@s is absolute ZERO though. | |

Posted: 9/27/2009 2:46:52 AM | I'm tolerant of a partner/friend's quirks and foibles, because I'm aware of my own. But probably not so much if the quirk involved tinfoil hats and/or the wearing of nappies.
I'm completely intolerant of laziness and incompetence. And hypocrisy and numptiness. And lack of integrity.
And Nissan Micras.
And.....
Oh let's face it - I'm about a minus 3 on the tolerance scale

Posted: 9/27/2009 2:56:48 AM | I find I'm getting less tolerant as I get older. I still have patience with the things that matter, but I've learned a few lessons the hard way. This especially applies to men. I used to be a real pushover as I was afraid of the consequences of standing up for myself, ie they'd walk.
These days, they still seem to walk for the slightest thing, but I really don't care any more. It just proves they weren't right for me. | |

Posted: 9/27/2009 9:04:17 AM | | Aww this was my old thread. I used to be sprite56. I think I gave myself 8/10 for tolerance but recently Ive been more of a 6/10. I guess it depends on what's going on in my life at the time. | |
