I do not know why i find this habit of people revolting. Ever since i can remember i have always cringed when i hear someone slurp their drink whether hot or cold, so noisily! i equate it to uncleanliness or lack of manners , like it sounds so barbaric and unprofessional. i do not even get why they do that when i sip my coffee or any other liquid ,be it tea or soup, in silence. does it make the liquid less hot if you loudly make a sound to sip it? does it make a difference? i am not sure if i am actually correct or i am just acting righteous or if this practice is within the norm but i really just plainly abhor it when people do that in front of me. my father was always doing it, my nephews do, and now i even have my husband doing it all the time with his tea. it is my pet peeve. i just could not stand it but who am i to tell them not to when i think it is probably just a variation of what is normal? i mean, the ones who do it, do not hurt anyone, they are simply just enjoying the drink. i used to just move away from people when they start to do it. when i am having a meal and i hear some slurping i more often than not, just completely lose my appetite. i could not even blurt this out to my husband because i know he will just shrug it off or even get mad at me because he did nothing bad at all so why would i always make such big fuss out of nothing. he will probably just tell me to deal with it. well, i certainly hate myself for having such negative reactions to a simple thing such as loud slurping and as always, i hope i am a less sensitive person. i often think ,why i can't i be just like others?
