Patience....I have next to none. If someone is 5-10 minutes late, I often leave. If we're leavin a place and someone is taking forever to leave, I head for the car and its running. If someone is acting like a jackass I cut dem off.

I have a lot of perseverance which is often mistake for patience.

I didn't think I had any patience at all either.. then a wise lady told me once.. if you can work with people, you have a lot of patience. I asked her how so.. she reminded me of how I treated people that came to complain in my office.. with respect.. with patience.. I didnt even realise I had patience since I chew out my son, family & S.O. all the d@mn time.. I realised I had tons of patience, just didnt practice it when it came around the ones I love.... I have changed now.. I huff & Puff 50.000 times before I actually nuke the place or person

Who did you send it to? I'm looking right now and I still haven't gotten it.

No, it's not him this time. He's actually not all that trying on the patience. It's the rest of my life around me. You want things and you want them to happen right now. Usually, they just don't and it sucks.

I am re-learning how to nuke the place now Because I have been having wayyyyyyy too much patience with everybody around me and they started abusing of it... and made me into a miserable person

I keep saying I feel oddly calm right now. I think it's just cause I have a little more patience as of late.

i am very very patient with people - unless they are standing in the middle of shopping aisles gossiping and blocking my way or wandering round aimlessly at a slow pace when im in a hurry.

im becoming less patient with friends who whinge about their problems and find excuses not to do things that would help.

I like this thread....anyone have a comment about patience......its funny to me how in some situations that drive others mad..i have infinite patience...and other situations that no one else is bothered by I completely lose my patience.....I wonder why my patience doesn't carry over into all areas....

I really struggle with this one....the only place I am able to have infinite patience is in my classroom....but elsewhere....figet it

I don't mean that i have a short temper...I just want everything to be instant!

I have low patience for the following:

Rude, disrespectful, and unruly children
Myself or child being harrassed or bullied
People talking to you like crap.
Stealing or invading my physical space.

I have patience for everything else....

Patience

I really really really dont have one.
I get panic attacks if I wait to long, and worrie.
BUT I have learned I just have to deal with it.
Cause good things come to those who wait.

... When It comes to people if they annoy me I tend to just ignore them, and if they go on about how Im ignoring them I snap.

lol so I guess Patience is what I lack.
