I have noticed throughout my life that certain people thrive on drama or just stirring up crap for the hell of it.
My family has a policy: do not cause drama in the house on purpose. The reason: my ex-stepmother and the BS we went through with her and her kids. She would pick fights with my dad for no reason, and even brought up events that happened months ago that no one cares about anymore. Every time my brother and I got something new, she'd throw a fit or spend bookoos of cash to get her kids something even better than what we got. At one point, we couldn't even get snack items without her taking them and either stashing them herself or giving them to her kids.
After I finally snapped (something I don't want to do again unless needed) and Dad divorced her, we all agreed to keep the house and family events drama free as much as possible. The only places we can't avoid this is the work place or at school. As I said, certain people seem to thrive on drama. They will throw monkey wrenches into situations that cause full blown arguments or just piss people off. It's like these people are addicted to stirring the pot and getting a reaction out of someone(s) like a pot head is addicted to pot.
Is all this drama really necessary? Can drama be addicting like a drug? Or are the people that cause it just buttheads?
