      I cannot abide the kind of selfishness Chris and Mega have just described, and that Seul mentioned previously in regards to a party. The most peeving bad character traits to me are selfishness, self-centeredness, and thoughtlessness, and nothing demonstrates these flaws more than making someone wait, as though their time isn't important to you. I consider the boorish behavior y'all have mentioned to be abusive and I treat it as such–anyone who ever makes me wait will know that I was not happy about it (if I even wait at all), though I am always very gracious if they acknowledge it and try to be considerate about an unforeseen circumstance that kept them.

      Think it, be it.

        If he says that he is coming at 5pm then that is the exact minute at which he will knock on the door, not one minute sooner and not one minute later.

        How is this not completely fucking awesome?.. And McKleine: completely agree with ya…

          Seriously, never ever visit Argentina. You would explode with rage, everyone in the entire country is either waiting for someone, making someone wait for them, or both.

            Things the in-laws do that sound completely awesome when you first hear them get really irritating after you've lived with it for 15 years.

                I'll second Chris, though only 11 years deep.

                Mclain, try being the guy that was 15 minutes early for everything and being married to the woman that's always 30 behind. I can plot and plan, and even get her moving early, but I'll be damned if I can ever offset her tardiness.

                  Hahaha. My inlaws are pretty awesome so i cant complain but the behavior i am hearing would drive me bananas guys. ESPECIALLY when they give no excuse or dont fucking care. WOW. I have a buddy that will say he will be here at 10 and at 1030 i will txt him and instead of "oh sry dude, fell asleep" or "i had to help my folks out real quick, omw now" i will get "holy fuck man, i guy cant have supper first!!" IGNORANT
                  JDL, im in the same boat with my oldlady. She will actually tell me to "hurry up and get ready, we have to be _____in like 20mins." So i get ready quickly and then stand at the door fully dressed for 10-15mins waiting for her. Wild

                          The bad part is she's not a high maintenance type of chick, she just overthinks every fracking decision. My inlaws really aren't that bad, her parents are perpetually late, and her sister can flake at the last minute, and they grate on my nerves with some of their melodrama, but for the most they are well meaning folks.

                                A relationship with me wouldn't last long (and hasn't) if a girlfriend were frequently and unapologetically late without explanation. I always treat my girlfriends very well and I expect to be treated at least half as well as I treat them.

                                Think it, be it.

                                        If punctuality is my biggest pet peave after a decade with someone, and I can't get the hell over it, the problem is on me. 10 minutes late is nothing compared to the unbearable prick she lives with.

                                          For the record, if I have somewhere I feel it important enough to be punctual for, she is told we need to be their 30 minutes prior to actual. Since I don't do it all the time she never sees it coming and we get there on time. Best part is she knows I do it and just accepts it.
