I am not one of the most patient people in the world and I get angry most of the time. And the main reason I get angry is my husband. He does things that I dont understand why he is doing it and it makes me impatient cause you talk to him about it but still keep on doing the same things. How about you? Who or what makes you impatient? What do they do to make you impatient?

i get impatient with people who don't understand things right away (well depends on complexity), people who are not organized and those who talk nonsense.i also get impatient if i don't get what i want. sometimes i feel like this is normal but my mom and even my previous bosses tell me that i should learn to accept that not everyone has the same mindset as i have. sometimes i blame the fact that virgos can be like this most of the time. standards are kind of impossible but i still stick with them anyway.

Well, in some situations I think we are somewhat the same. I also get impatient when people dont get want I want to say. I dont like that idea of them asking the same things and also asking me to say the same things over and over.

Thanks for the site! I hope I will be able to apply the things I am going to read here about dealing with temper and how to control it. I think I should also ask my husband to read it. I think he needs it too.

Keeping patience is one of the critical success factor in every aspect of life,be it relationship,professional,personal or inter-personal.There has never been any occasion while I felt impatient and hurried.I am a cool and calm person. It is important how effectively one manages one's emotion in interacting with others. Patience is the key to success.Emotional outbursts driven by impatient move can damage relationship and hinder one's progress.

But there is a right way of being patient and a wrong way of being patient. You can not say that you are being patient and just keeping your thoughts to yourself and at the same time you are hurting yourself. That is so wrong!

I don't know you and your husband so I wouldn't pass judgement on him. Whatever your problems are, I hope you resolve it soon. There are a lot of things that make me impatient. I have trouble keeping things separate in my mind, so I have trouble being at ease if I have some nagging problems. So, if I am troubled with some day to day problems, I always end up very impatient.

I really dont wanna be impatient either but there are just things that we encounter in life that really makes us impatient. I am not being impatient everyday. Its just that there are times that I am.

I find that married woman are easily annoyed by their husband. Just like my wife, if I were to did something that she think that is wrong, she will start to nag. I just do not understand why. What make the woman so impatient? Can woman pleas answer this question?

I dont know your situation but I am pretty sure that you are doing something your wife doesnt like. Or maybe she asked you not to do something again but you still kept on doing it. I think your wife was patient but maybe you sucked it all out yourself.

Patience, patience, patience.... this usually the issues of a couple. Honestly to speak, I can consider myself a patient individual, but I have limits. What are the things you said you can't understand about your husband? is it his work related? how does he deals his work? his attitude? habits maybe? We should all knows that before a couple gets tied up, they usually have known each other quite some time... yes, some never reveals after marriage, but most couples are like that, and still they get along well. But if you loved him very much and would understand him deeper, you will get to know him better. How about try helping him with the thing he was doing? maybe it would help ease up your being impatient. knowing what he was doing would get you to know him better. How about giving me some insights of your husband? I'm sure he was a very hardworking husband. About your question, who or what makes you impatient? Me, I really don't get impatient easily, except to people who keeps on nagging. Keep on repeating and repeating what already said, I don't like people who keeps on talking about the past problems. that's keep me impatient.

We all have limits when it comes to patience. I think its not just about patience either, its also about something else. We are all capable of handling different situations but of course, it depends on how we handle them.

Hi P3ks626!. I think what me really impatient is waiting without nothing to do beside waiting especially if I had to standing. I will easily leads me to bad mood and its will not fun if I start to feel thats way. If my friend plant to meet usually set the place we meet that I can do something while wait like book store. Or If I we can not find a place like that I usually prefer come late , now look who made others impatient .
