[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I call "the bristle", which is a NON stated NON verbal but nonetheless perceivable combination of body language, expression and "vibe", is a big one for me. It always takes place during very neutral innocuous conversation about general topics, like food choices, or movie preferences,etc.  Nothing heated at all- no trigger things like politics or religion... Some people might call this trait being judgmental- its kind of like that, but it begins with that bristling "offended at the mere presence of a contrasting reality" thing.[/quote]

I'm the OP of the toxic judging friend thread, and this is EXACTLY what I was talking about.  It's not as extreme as a pearl-clutch, but there's a definite air of "Well, I've never!"  :lol: [/quote]

Thanks for posting. Yes, I had a sense that we were on the same wavelength...[/quote]

On the same wavelength? If you are not sock puppeting then you were separated at birth. I can't understand how any of this meshes with your manifesto. You got it right when you said "these things seem trivial." You're trying to see what the common denominator is so you can avoid it in the future -- you can't, it's you. You are the one who is offended and you have listed all the offenses in this long-winded post. Phew, what nonsense.[/quote]

I'm the OP of the toxic judging friend thread, but not the PP you're responding to. :-)[/quote]
