Wrong Planeteers,
Out idle curiosity, is there a particular type of person you absolutely can not get along with (note: I'm talking about personality traits)?
For me, the people I get along with the LEAST are the ones who have absolutely no sense of humor. I'm not a "serious" person, and I'm pretty laid-back most of the time, so I generally avoid uptight people who act like everything is the end of the world. I also can't stand folks who are extremely judgmental in that they're eternally passing judgement on what other people wear, how they talk, how attractive they are, ect. Sheesh. Mind your own friggen business. Lastly, extremely emotional people stress me out. And by that I mean people who constantly swing from one emotional extreme to the other.
Thanks for your input.

I pride myself in being
able to "get along" with anyone and everyone if necessary in any particular situation. However, I detest judgmental people who tell me what I feel or think, or believe politically is wrong. I don't think other peoples' opinions are wrong or right, and I don't think it's anyone else's business to judge me for my opinions. If it's fact, that's different; such as if I misread a traffic sign and I start going the wrong way, then I expect to be corrected and I appreciate it. But if I don't think Obamacare is anything but a mess and a terrible idea, I expect to be entitled to my opinion whether it turns out to be accurate or not, and I return the same courtesy to those of opposite views.
Therefore, I would say that although I "can" get along with anyone, I choose not to try to associate with, or to try to get along with judgmental people.
