Reply to LPT Request: How do you say "Yes" if someone asks if they're being annoying? by eiriee

If someone is asking if they are being annoying, it's because either A) they don't know because they don't understand how they are perceived by others but THEY WANT TO. B) They know they are annoying and are looking for a pass to keep going.

Either way, just say 'to be honest, yes' and take it from there. In the long run, it's the nicest thing you can do for A, and B hasn't earned the right to have their feelings protected.

Though, I think they do evolve subtly, which is what is so great about it. You can see their core personalities are the samr, but certain things change over the time period, in their interests, the way they work with people and the way they think about their families. And to me, that is how people actually change.
