Irrational fear of disgusting eaters

[sc0tt]

It makes my heart beat faster and cause palpitations.

Crisp eaters who have their mouths open, people who eat so fast they have to slurp it up.

I want to fking kill all of you. Were you dragged up by a pack of wolves.

Scum

Scraping of cutlery on plates drives me absolutely fking insane. Irrational I know, but it just sets my teeth on edge.

Urgh thats even more disgusting.

My mother feels the need to stir her dinner. No matter what she is eating. It could be a tin of fking beans and she would still stir it.

It makes my hair stand on end.

Scott. You may have mesophonia.

HTH (genuinely - helped me when I found out. Nobody understands.)

The wife is very concious with eating around me.

I usually snap with, "That sounds nice" when she is eating.

There was a thread about this in the 'Health Matters' section about 6-12 months ago.

My GF has a similar hatred towards 'noisey' eaters, to the extent that she becomes very agitated and annoyed. She likens it to annoying tapping or nails on a chalkboard; it drives her mad.

She actually had to speak to her boss at work, it was becoming so bad. Being locked in an office with people that eat at their desk and with their mouths open was more than she could bear.

I occasionally get a glare when I subconsciously eat with my mouth open...

I'm normally fine with my headphones turned up to 11 but I haven't got them with me today.

My intolerance level is terrible snoob.

They're a difficult food to eat quietly crisps....

I guess it would boil down to tolerance level, sounds like yours is pretty low?

I also have an irrational fear of internet stalkers
