How can I tolerate someone?
I'm not sure if that's the way to say if and I feel really silly asking it but I'd like to know. I work with someone who gave off a rude impression to me and it has not improved. I've tried giving her a couple of chances because we do work together so we might as well get along but she is just rude and easily irritable. I've even confronted her but she didn't even let me finish talking. Just the sight of her or hearing her name makes me angry. And I don't want to look or feel mad. How can I stop?
Try feeling sorry for her and then forgive her. She doesn't need to know about this. Often, if someone is rude and easily irritated, they are under stress. She may have a difficult home life, maybe she is in pain from some illness, maybe she is stressed out about something, like money or her love life or a friend. It doesn't matter what. Once you feel sorry for her, tell yourself (under your breath if necessary), "I forgive you".
After that, don't try to be friends, just show a neutral, business-like attitude to her and let her deal with her own problems.

I believe it does change and evolve after you've been in a relationship or marriage for awhile (and that's not a bad thing), but I might be wrong, so I'd like to hear other opinions.My boyfriend stopped telling me that he loves me 4 months ago. We live together, and just had a child together...

Have you ever seen someone, or read an email from someone, and without even knowing them just felt like they had bad intentions or a darkness around them? And the other way around, ever meet someone and just feel like they are a really good person?

I was just about to turn the key to my apartment and my neighbor wished me. She has invited me many times in the past to the church and I went once to her church. But now my husband doesn't like her preaching to us so much. For me she has been my neighbor for more than 2 years but still I feel bad...

If your father (or mother) lied to you, and it ruined your life, would you ever speak to them again?
