Okay, so from the roomate thread, I realize that while I truely found those idiosynrosies annoying, they were somewhat self induced. I hold myself to high standards and have apparantly been annoyed by others if they don't have same values.

This time, I am asking for advice/help. I'm sure that everyone has judged others by their own standards before. How do you cope with this? How do you hold high values for yourself while expecting nothing from others in those same values? If that sentense sounded condescending, it was not meant to be.

OK.

Once, long ago, I was going through what you are now. My life was just not what I wanted it to be, and being around other people just seemed to make things worse. Then I became an assassin. It was a real eye opener for me. To know that I could kill anyone at anytime was empowering, and I suddenly became more tolerant of other people, because I knew that if they crossed a certain line, I would just kill them. The more I killed, the less annoyed I was. Pretty soon, I was one of the most laid back guys on the planet. No one would ever suspect how I got that way though. I urge you to go out and discover the joys of killing. I did, and I'll never be the same again.

If the other person's values don't affect you, why should you give a shit? If it does affect you, deal with it like adults.

Is this an attempt to live up to your screen name?
