How come my Mother is the only person that can really get under my skin?

I%26#039;m 23 and my Mother seems to be the ONLY person on this planet that can really piss me off. I%26#039;ve tried to figure out how she has mastered the art of getting under my skin but I can%26#039;t figure it out. Any ideas? |||She knows you better than anyone else and knows exactly what buttons to push. |||Ya know what -- you have now joined the ranks of everyone who has a mother. Seriously, this is just a think with Moms. BUT I%26#039;d like to say that as a mother myself and a person who lost my Mum at 20 years old. You are very lucky to have a mother and don%26#039;t forget that no matter how much she pisses you off. Mine pissed me off too but I wish she was still around to piss me off. It%26#039;s hard to grow up (even from age 20) without a Mom.


I think that Moms just know us so well and love us so much (yes, more than Dad%26#039;s -- sorry Dad%26#039;s) and want the best for us so much that it just gets under our skin.


Although I doubt it will go away, I think that when you%26#039;re a bit older, your Mom will seem less and less annoying to you...that%26#039;s what I hope my son thinks although I can%26#039;t speak from experience.


Give her a big hug and thank her every day! Good luck!|||i can only say that she is your mother....





she knows your core





she knew you before you did





and before the innocence left.....





and will know you always....





yes she can piss you off....mine does to me too....





but realize most of the time it is just her own fear, experience, and control she is putting out there on you out of love and protection...





leave, breathe, relax, and come back.... nothing good comes from anger...|||I don%26#039;t know, some people just have that %26quot;gift%26quot; though. My father has mastered it, as have many of my inlaws. They just know how to tick people off.


Instead of wondering how she does it, figure out how you can either let it go, or get under her skin as well.|||Because she is not scared to tell you what is on her mind. You might be just alike. Me and my mom are the same way. We are just alike and we fight all the time. Because if she is right about something that you thought was wrong, it%26#039;s make you mad, because she was right.|||A couple of reasons: 1. she%26#039;s your mom and knows you better than anyone, so she knows how to push your buttons. 2. She%26#039;s your mom, and you love her. The people we love are the ones who can piss us off so easily.||| Oh Im so there with you, mom my seems to have a talent for that too. But Ive come to realize its just because they are our moms is why we let it bug us so much.|||She has had 23 years to practice. Besides, sometimes the person we love the most can irritate us the most. Hopefully it gets better.|||Yes, sometimes it is because you and her could be alot alike..or it could be she knows she can get away with it so she does it on purpose because she knows it will bother you.|||You are probably just like her. They say when you really can%26#039;t get along with a person that means that you are too much alike.
