I Hate it When That Happens

Thanks for that. I read it twice.

I've mentioned this in other threads, so forgive me if this is a rerun.

The number one thing that sends me very close to rage is the sound of eating/drinking. I can hardly describe what it's like for me.

Good grief! What do you think is the cause of it?

Is it just other people, or do you also have problems hearing your own noises?

I'm not sure. It hasn't always been that way.

It's only other people. It is not good, because sometimes I have to remove myself from meals with my beloved wife and daughter.

I have a swallowing disorder that sometimes prevents me from eating enough. I have wondered if, somehow, noticing that other people are able to feed themselves with ease, while eating is sometimes a frustrating or scary thing for myself, is the root of the problem.

Looking forward to resolving this issue, needless to say.

Merry Christmas (or happy times of your choosing LOL)!!!

I was listening to something the other day and a guy said "I can't stand to watch people eat".
I was trying to remember so I could point it out to you, but I can't recall it. It might have been on some movies I've been watching. ( I don't like to watch my sister-in-law eat. She acts like she's gone to heaven with every bite, and it annoys me.)

Sounds like you have good insight though,as to where it stems from.

Ditto on the Happy Holidays! I'm a "Merry Christmas" girl myself
