Many of you know I am a twin, I have a fraternal twin sister, but we could not be more different if we tried. I wonder sometimes if there was a mix-up at the hospital. We are complete opposites. I'm the peace-keeper. She is the argumentative type. She will not let an argument go and takes it so far from it's origin that the original point is completely forgotten. She twists and distorts responses around to strengthen her point far beyond their intended meaning. I usually just walk away from sheer exasperation from trying to reason with the unreasonable. grumble

Do you have folks like this in your life? How do you deal with them without wanting to choke the living poop out of them!! frustrated

I've cut her out of my life as much as possible, but you know there are times when ya have to be around folks like that when they are family. Somtimes I get caught up in standing up for my brother in some of these insane arguments. She is so dead-set that her opinion is the right one, she refuses to consider anything beyond what's in her mind.

I don't. I get more satisfaction from choking the living poop out of them.

She has the same view ,that your exasperating as well,you both agree to disagree..but as twins you will automatically become opposites in behavior because you are twins,and its insulting for anyone to grow up just like there opposite..especially if they are so close in a situation...prolly only thing to do is make light of the situation and laugh about eachother being the "butthead":)

I want to "choke the living poop out of them most of the time well I don't care if it is dead even.

I refuse to engage anymore with them. I say what I have to say, I listen and then I respond once maybe twice, the third time. I just look at them very calmly and try to put my best sage look on my face. State "You just might be right". Then I disengage by leaving or I will choke them. As I am walking away I keep telling myself I have never seen the inside of a jail cell that I couldn't leave from they aren't work it either.

I have a couple relatives like this. I try to avoid them throughout the year and during holiday get-togethers I usually just smile, give vague, polite answers and leave the room (if possible).
