Stuff people don't get

[(Anonymous)]

That some people prefer to be left alone if they're upset. They seem to get that someone saying they want to be left alone might mean that that person is upset... but then instead of leaving the person alone, they decide they need to keep asking them what's wrong, keep trying to make them open up, and if "normal" tactics don't succeed, sometimes they move on to really obnoxious stuff, like mocking the person. Because MAYBE if you humiliate and belittle them for being upset and not wanting to talk about it, they'll start talking out of shame, I guess? Of course, they'll not only have to talk about something they don't want to, they'll have to do it with someone who was just making them feel even crappier. But I guess these people think that if someone is unhappy, the best thing is ALWAYS for them to have to talk about it.

This me and my dad. He doesn't get that I need to be alone when I'm pissed off and am likely to snap at anyone who bothers me. He pushes and pushes when all I want to do is be left alone. Case in point today. He kept making suggestions on how I could fix a problem that isn't fixable. And I really just wanted to be left alone to sulk in peace.

"Are you mad?"
"Are you sure you're not mad?"
"Are you suuuure you're not mad?"
"You look mad."
"Are you mad?"

I dislike people like that, so much so that I make sure I'm either not friends with anyone who does this, or I don't tell people like this that I'm upset.

Oh my gosh, this. I'm not going to calm down at any point you keep talking to me, I'll only get more upset. I'm giving off very clear signals to leave me alone, SO LEAVE ME ALONE.

It's worth pointing out, though, that for some people, what pushes their buttons is the person who gives you the silent treatment, acts mad but says "I don't want to talk about it!", shuts you out, and refuses to tell you what's wrong.

This is my mom. And it's so, so frustrating. Especially when I'm like 'I need ten minutes to cool off and I'll come back and talk to you', and she won't give me those ten minutes and then gets mad when I blow up at her/or cry.

Oh man I feel this. If I'm upset I need to be left alone to stew and sort my feelings out, poking me or asking me if I'm mad will just make it worse(and if I'm not mad at them it will redirect my anger to that person, it's not fair or their fault at all but my angry state literally doesn't care).

Thankfully most people in my life get this about me and know to just leave me be till I'm ready to talk.

I know that feeling, only it's not just with talking. I start feeling the same way with actually being touched as well. When I'm upset, I don't want to be touched. And that's not a hard concept.
