I've always been one to tell people that if they're not having fun with a game that they should drop it, but. Yeaaaaaah, I can't talk. My current situation is sort of weird. A while ago I bought a ton of games on Steam sales, and a handful of them I never got to or just didn't play for various reasons. So this year I finally sat down and started playing through that handful. I made a whole list, told myselfI I'd finish them this year as a kinda cool New Years resolution, etc. Luckily, most of them have been really awesome but there's points where they turn into obligation because I wanna just finish them and move on through my list. It usually passes and I have fun with it again, but I think I can definately relate to the whole obligation thing in that way when I get impatient and wanna "finish it already".
Occasionally it also applies if I want to try out the previous games in a series with an upcoming installment that I'm interested in, but I get over that one pretty quick too if I'm unsure. Again, luckily most of the time the obligated feeling goes away pretty fast.
Sharp objects. I don't know if that's SUCH an irrational thing but when anybody in my household is in the kitchen cutting something up with our big knife I tend to stay away. I wouldn't call it 100% irrational though because I'm fine using sharp knives to cut up and eat steak with.
Also when anybody is behind me driving. ANYBODY, because of a small (but my very first) car accident about a year ago. Long story short, I didn't realize I left a dent in somebody's car and drove off. They thought I was hit-and-running them and called the police and followed me for a bit until they could stop me at a light and tell me what happened. Pretty dumb of me. So sometimes still any time I'm on the road and somebody's been behind me for more than a few minutes I get crazy worried I've done something without realizing it.
