Default One personality trait of yours that you need to fix to improve your relationship

What is one personality trait of yours that you need to work on to improve your relationships?

I am an extremely impatient person. It's terrible, really is.
For example, my husband runs out to get a cup of coffee at Starbucks and leaves me in the car since he couldn't find parking. If he is not back in 10 minutes, I start to get really impatient. I call and find out what's taking so long, or start getting restless in the car. I hate the fact that I don't like to wait as most of people's lives consist of waiting for something and I get frustrated easily. It drives my husband nuts.

What about you?

I've been told that I need to much "me time" because I can't stand being "joined at the hip".
Seriously, can't he just go somewhere without me and give me a few hours to myself?

Also, I get really nervous when I am in the car with someone who drives too fast or doesn't seem to be paying attention. Apparently I am downright annoying. Along those lines, apparently my driving is even more annoying because I tend to stay in one lane no faster than 5 mph than the speed limitl

Between those two things, we stay home a lot. LOL

Ha ha!! I've been called annoying for my driving as well.
I would get nervous being in a car with a careless driver as well, by the way.

I have to have EVERYTHING done my way. I stay single just to keep from making another human being miserable.

Ha-ha, I'm somewhat inflexible, too.
