Anyone frustrated with someone who is always busy?!
Question: I realize that everyone needs time to get their own needs met and to do the things that they want to do and have to do, but there are some people who are always excessively busy. And not only that, but they enjoy talking about how busy they are. They seem to value their time more than anyone else's and make it seem as though they are burdened more than anyone else. And if you try to place any demands on their time, they brush you off and make it seem like you are selfish for needing some of their time. Has anyone else felt frustrated to the point of anger by someone like this.

Those people are all over. They should have left that portion of their personality behind when they were children. It generally goes hand in hand with wanting someone else to step in and help them with something they are involved in, then getting in the way of the "helper" to tell the helper what to do. They can be a pain in the ***. I try to stay away from these people if I can. Their slick talk often gets them in places of supervising, so be careful of them if they have any actual responsibility or authority.
Yes. I usually make every effort to avoid them.
I know exactly what you mean. It's extremely annoying to feel so insignificant with someone you care about.
Can`t you see that I`m much too busy to answer your selfish little question right now?
My sister is like that. I am always there for her when she needs me but when I call her she sends me to voice mail. It's rude, annoying and frustrating!
Yes, a little bit. Especially when you actually need that someone, and it begins to affect your life as well. But then again, you realize that there are times where you are busy and you want time for yourself, or you just don't have any time to spare. Hopefully as time passes, you are patient enough for that other person, and they may come to you. Otherwise, if they keep doing it, and it becomes a pattern, they may be using it as an excuse, and there are problems that exists. People like that can't deal with the problems, so it's up to you whether they are worth it or not.
Hmmm.... yes, no, maybe. I hope that I'm not one of these people. I am pretty busy but I have work, school, family, and volunteer work. But I will drop what I can to help a friend or family member. At home, I don't have a lot of time to just talk on the phone, for example. I don't enjoy it. Everyone is different. If you have a problem with someone then you should discuss it with them. Some people do take on too much. What do you need? What are you looking for?
can i get duece?
oh yeah but, it is something that can't really be stopped. In their eyes, there is no one who is doing more than they are, even if you are doing more than they are. you don't count.
