    Stop following so closely and stop being triggered by unimportant shit like this.

    You’re in a parking lot. This is a place where you expect to be slowed down by people doing all sorts of shit. Parking. Unparking. Waiting for a space.

    Just take a breath. Give people some room. You’re actually slowing things down when you follow too closely. It’s harder for them to park.

      Or maybe they should also put their blinker on to indicate they are pulling in instead of pulling past it, stopping and backing up. I would also be fine with that, but most don’t.

        There are two problems that mix together to cause the issue. One is that the other person isn’t indicating. The other is that you are following too closely. If either of these things change, the problem goes away. You can’t control whether they use their blinker, but you can control whether you follow too closely.

          Like i always tell me children, “control what you can control.” Works in so many situations, and gets them to take ownership of the situation, and their own happiness and stop blaming others
