| How tolerant are you?
Posted: 11/6/2007 7:13:59 AM | | I'm one of those people who can put up with a lot until you get me on a bad day - and then I blow! There are some who seem to have endless tolereance levels and will take all the crAp that's thrown at them but at the other end of the scale there are those who tolerate little. I would put myself on a scale 0f 1-10 at about 8. How easy going are you and what figure would you rate yourself? | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 7:22:54 AM | | I think I'm the same (about 8 out of 10), although there are certain thing that I can't stand and I won't tollerate at all. But in general I try and get on with everyone and try not to cause a fuss. | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 7:30:21 AM | it honestly boils down to what time of the month it is and what is happening in my life at that particular time...
sometimes i can let things go over my head without a second thought, and other times i can't.
my tolerance levels drop dramatically though when i realise someone is trying to take advantage, or is trying to make me look a fool. | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 7:32:39 AM | | Im very tolerant until im tired then i get all pissy and make comments under my breath, I tend to avoid straight confrontation unless someone has really ticked me off lol. Id say im probably around a 7 or 8, but thats me saying that others would probably say im like a 4 | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 7:46:10 AM | | I reckon I'm very tolerant. I could probably count the amount of times I have been really angry in my life on one hand. Probably a 9.5 | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 8:05:03 AM | I have a really high tolerance level... Tolerance and losing ones temper are not one and the same thing... I will tolerate, then once my tolerance level has been exceeded I will do something about it.. Usually trying to point out the fact that what the person is doing is not acceptable behaviour... Calmly... So a good 9 on the scale..
As for losing my temper, I have done so on 3 occasions in my entire life... The first two resulted in broken bones for the person who I lost my temper at, the third time, the fact that the iron was still plugged in was the only thing to save my partners face...
I hate losing my temper, I am scary when I lose it so I keep a very tight reign on my emotions... | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 8:13:38 AM | Not very!
I get frustrated and bad tempered very quickly and then go off on one.
It's not good.
Today I am feeling intensley intolerant, with one thing and another and feel the urge to rip heads off. Could be PMT, could be something else....... | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 8:23:20 AM | i have to admit that once ive allowed someone in i can be way too tolerant.
with age and experience though i have become a little faster on the uptake of pizztakers.those i dont particularly care about however im not slow in letting my feelings be known.
but with kids and animals ill allways be as soft as clarts im affraid! | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 8:26:12 AM | | It's very hard to wind me up, i have a knack of diffusing situations before they get out of hand, be it relationships or terrorists wanting to do me in... all very true! | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 10:51:54 AM | How easy going are you
Very easy going, probably far too much.
It's the middle ground I struggle with - I go from chilled to boiling point very easily. | |

er er can I take a rain check on that date, i'm washing my hair/at the dentist/having my toe nails clipped/or something! 
I think mostly I am up there as about 9.5 because I really dont worry about much, but I 'do not suffer fools lightly'.
I tend only to concern myself to any depth with those people or things I like, anything else is irrelevant. | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 5:57:26 PM | Generally I would say 9/10........ I tend to let things go or accept them when it comes to people being people.....what else can you do
People being judgemental at other people tho, I have 1/10 tolerance on a good day
Depends on the person or thing you are tolerating really because levels will differ with different thought processes
Of course we all have 'bear with sore heads' days or 'I cant be arsed days' then its the tolerantones you gota watch out for | |

I would say that is about right for me too as well as the current mood I am in! This can change often day by day, hour by hour from the 'down' "Don't get near me or else!" mood to the 'up' " Nothing is going to bother me at this moment!" mood so therefore I can't really give a definite number! | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 9:57:42 PM | | Well depends on the situation to what i can put up with and the person. On a bad day i'm a 3/10 on a good day 9/10.. | |

Posted: 11/7/2007 7:26:59 AM | As I have got older, I have matured emotionally, and as such try to adopt a tolerant attitude to my own short-comings, and the short-comings of others.

the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference." | |

Posted: 11/7/2007 8:49:31 AM | Today my tolerance is zero , due to people who are happy at others misfortune, I just cant get to grips with people who are made happy by others misery..
 's the lot of them .. and obviously muddled in the head.. | |

Posted: 11/7/2007 9:07:35 AM | | How tolerant am I, got to be honest it depends on the situation, for those I would consider left wing and PC, my tolrance level would be a -20, they do irrate me a lot, but not in the same way that would make me blow my stack, blowing my stack only certian things would make me do that, Lazy people, my tolerance level for them is extremly low, once again not enough to make me lose my temper, For me to lose my temper, there has to be a direct threat to my kids or my self other wise I can't be bothered. | |

Posted: 11/7/2007 10:02:51 AM | | I would say I am reasonably tollerant but the only problem is when something does get to me I ussualy dont say I just carry on as if everything is fine and dandy, which is good because I never get in to any arguments but bad because well...... it just bottles up and up and eventually it has to come out, I supose I could always go for a nice relaxing massage.............any offers..lol | |
