15. He’s crazy loud.
There will always be those who speak and laugh inordinately loudly. They’re the loudest people wherever they go. When you try to have an intimate discussion, these individuals shout all the details for everyone within earshot to hear. They were usually raised in a loud family where they had to fight for attention.
- How this relationship affects you: If you’re highly sensitive to sounds, this person’s voice may be physically and energetically painful to you. If you’re in public together, you may feel embarrassed because his or her loud voice and laughter annoy other people. You, especially, may become annoyed because you’d like a softer and quieter relationship with this person.
- How to handle this: Because loud people don’t realize the effect that they’re having or believe that it’s not that bad, they need a reality check. If you deeply care about such a person and want the relationship to continue, you’ll need to tell him or her the truth. Usually someone who’s loud has a tough exterior but a delicate interior. So you’ll need to be direct enough so the person hears you, but not so blunt that you’d crush his or her insecure core.
