5 Signs You Hate Change

Change can be scary. Whether it's good, bad, or somewhere in between, most of us are at least a little apprehensive about changes in our lives. However, some of us are more affected than others. Here are five signs that you truly hate and dread change.

1. You obsess over your schedule, and freak out every time something in it changes even the slightest bit.

You have a schedule for a reason, and somehow people still don't understand why it's important to stick to it.

2. You have daily routines that you swear by, and if you wake up late, it can mess up your whole day.

Even though it may not seem like a big deal to someone else, your comfortable routines become so important to you that changing what you do because of waking up late in the morning can ruin your mood for the day.

3. You hate when family traditions are left behind.

Even though it might not be realistic to get the whole family together for Mother's Day brunch anymore, you still mourn the good times you had in the past and think that it and other traditions left behind should be reinstated ASAP.

4. When a new friend comes into your friend group, you worry that the group's dynamic will change.

The group is already awesome, why do new people have to come in and change it?

5. Spontaneity is basically your worst nightmare.

Even though you like to believe that you can be spontaneous and let loose, it's pretty much impossible to do things without having a solid plan, or break from tradition and pattern.

Overall, even though we may learn to cope with change, for those of us that really hate it, change can be a lifelong challenge, but it can be good to embrace good change once in a while and let loose, even though we may not like it at first.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
