Some trait issues.

Post Reply New Topic

I know echolia and routine are AS traits but some times for me they are annoying. I went to cook Ramen noodles and unlike my family I don't crush them up and I cook them plain and a certain way. Also I repeat something but change my wording for example I don't think my sister will be able to reserve the park for my nephews Bday (man I hope she gets to reserve the park I don't think she will though) (it's saying the same thing but different wording) Does anyone else have issues like this? and any tips? The repeat thing my dad mention he didn't like and they didn't like that I cooked noodles a certain way.

You have the right to cook your noodles as you like to.

About repeating things, how do you repeat them? I know you said but I don't know how you do this. Is it that you say the same thing over and over to the same person (in varying ways)? Or is it that you repeat the same concerns to different people? Although, regardless of how you repeat things, I'm sure you mean no harm. If you feel it's an issue, perhaps practicing saying things only once (or twice if the person din't hear you) may make things easier.

Bear in mind, it may only be his issue. It can happen in families. Perhaps to check with a person outside family that you feel you can trust about it, may be a good idea.

I don't crush ramen noodles either, and I get loads of grief for repeating things (have since I was a kid). I try to remember when I have said things more than once so I don't do it again, but I only succeed part of the time (but that's enough for those who aren't out to pick at everything you do to see that you're trying).

I don't crush my Ramen Noodles either. I agree you have the right to cook your Ramen Noodles any way you want! I have the annoying habit of repeating myself. I have to be very much into the moment when I am talking so I don't do it. My mind loves to drift away from where ever and whatever I'm doing to zone out, I have to stop it and bring it back into focus.

Crushing Ramen noodles? Who ever heard of such a thing? I don't think Ramen would be as much fun to eat if it were crushed. =D

As for repeating yourself, I do this sometimes too. I'll realize what I said would be taken the wrong way, and I'll try to qualify it immediately. I don't think it's a problem, I think it could be called "clarifying" in some situations.

How are you supposed to eat your Ramen noodles with a fork if you crush it up?!?
