If you 'drive someone up the wall' you do something that makes them very irritated.

If a man is described as 'under the thumb' he is regarded as being controlled by his wife.

If you 'have a soft spot for someone' you feel affection towards them often without knowing quite why.

Sergey

What sort of behaviour tends to drive you up the wall?

Sergey

vecttra — 2013-02-13 05:59:04 UTC

Why might someone be described as being under the thumb?

Sergey

vecttra — 2013-02-13 05:59:35 UTC

Have you had a soft spot for someone in the past?

It's hypocrisy. Ican't bear when people aren't sincere.Why is it inherent to some people?It's a pity! I support truth.It seems to me that our life would be better and easier if everybody told the truth, even bitter truth.

A.G.

Maybe because everyone has his own view on relationship between man and woman and can't always understand what's going on in some couple right. I don't know if it's normal that something is right for half of the world and wrong for the other half.

A.G.

nastya_gromilin — 2013-02-13 22:26:03 UTC

Yes, I have. And it's a very strange and weird feeling.

Dear A.G.,

vecttra — 2013-02-14 05:45:58 UTC

1) I hate it when ...' 2) I always tell the truth.

Dear A.G.,

vecttra — 2013-02-14 05:52:41 UTC

1) '... everyone has their own ...' 2) '... on the relationship ...' 3) '... some couples ...'

I don't like cowards. They can always

let you down and after this they can

accuse you

inspirational feeling.

I'm really annoyed with people who are arrogant. They make others look ridiculous. To be honest, their behavior just gets on my nerves. In my view, everyone should respect people around them and take care of each other. If only all humans in the world realised this. If people were more tolerant and kinder, our lives would be better.

I hate arrogance. I believe that a person has the right to look down on another only when he extends a helping hand.

Sofia Vershinina

sophiavershinina5 — 2021-04-08 15:35:17 UTC

One of the reasons why man can be described as under the thumb is he's smitten with his girlfriend or wife. So, man just take care of her and do everything for his girl. However, there are some couples in which woman is the one who wears the trousers in the family. It's because man isn't ready to deal with big problems. Moreover, these men are insecure in most cases. Therefore, everything rests on woman's shoulder.

sophiavershinina5 — 2021-04-08 15:44:53 UTC

Yes. I had a soft spot for a guy. We had taken dance classes together for a year. In fact, I noticed and liked him at first sight. He was so out-going and cute. Besides, he reminded me of my close friend. Maybe that's why he seemed to be a good guy. In fact, we haven't seen each other for ages.

I hate ,when people are defiant behavior, when they try to fill the whole space with themselves.

Lisbeth B

2021-04-08 15:47:11 UTC

Hmm... I think, I always have a soft spot for different people. I notice some special features that are pleasant to me. It can be a smile, tone of voice or eye expression.

Liana

2021-04-08 15:55:26 UTC

I think it's okay for a man to listen to his wife and she can listen to him ,because they are a couple and need to listen to each other.There should be equality in the relationship.I think this is the key to a good relationship.

Liana

2021-04-08 16:03:38 UTC

Yes,I had this feeling.

I'm annoyed by this behavior when you do what you like, and someone just expressed their dissatisfaction to you, hiding behind their opinion

One of the few things that dirves me up the wall it's flattery. It looks really pathetic.

Vi

2021-04-08 17:27:51 UTC

yes, I have a weakness, but it is not because of the person, but because of my pet. When I saw her for the first time, it was love at first sight. I was attracted by her playful eyes and wonderful cute nose. Sometimes it seems to me that I am ready to do everything for her

Mark Kh.

2021-04-08 17:28:49 UTC

Honestly I have no a soft spot for someone in the past.

The most common reason why some men are being described as under the thumb is having a soft spot for their girlfriends or wives. Besides, usually it's turn out that these men are weak-minded.

It makes drive me up the wall when people behave rudely towards other people. I think if all people are polite to each other, it will make our world better.

Ruslan

2021-04-09 06:19:25 UTC

I think that a man shouldn’t be under the thumb. I believe that a man is always a support in a family.

Ruslan

2021-04-09 06:21:26 UTC

No, I hadn't a soft spot for other people. I only have a soft spot for my family.

Olena

2021-04-09 06:22:27 UTC

When people put themselves above others it makes drive me up the wall. I believe that arrogance is one of the indicators of a person's bad manners.

Olena

2021-04-09 06:23:24 UTC

I think that a man and a woman should solve any problems together. So, in some issues the man will be more important, in other issues the woman will be more important, this will maintain a balance between them.

Olena

2021-04-09 06:24:02 UTC

Yes, I had a soft spot for my grandfather, because when I was a child, we spent a lot of time together.

Daniel

People who think that each conversation/discussion is rather you win or lose. It really drives me up the wall when they know they wrong but continue to argue and end it only when you retreat.

Daniel

2021-04-09 08:16:19 UTC

I think most people would say it's indecisive men, who can't take responsibility for their actions and lay all decisions on their wife/girlfriend

It makes drives me up the wall, firstly, when someone tries to impose their opinion on me and tell me what to do. I am an adult and I know perfectly well what I need to do and what not. and secondly, when someone eats very loudly

Leila

2021-04-09 18:24:48 UTC

I have a friend who thinks that helping a girl to put on a jacket means that he is under the thumb. What is this nonsense. It seems to me that a man is under the thumb only when he endures humiliation from a woman, and not when he treats her well.
