The relationship that drives people crazy with anger and frustration are from a past life. These are the people who really get under your skin and exasperate you endlessly. Very often, these Karmic relationships are with people in your immediate family.

Karmic relationship mean that you've had prior lifetimes with this person, and you both were sent back to be together to work things peacefully. This was your Soul's choice, although it was probably highly pushed upon you by your guides and angels who helped you script out much of your life. Usually a Karmic relationship is someone with whom you had a battle or other harsh circumstances. You returned together in this life time to ensure that you'd work things out, and clear both of your energies.

If you do not clear the energies in this lifetime, you'll be pressured to continue to incarnate with this soul again and again and again. And each lifetime, his or her relationship to you will continue to be close, either through genetics and familial bonds, or through friendship, marriage, of career. So, that annoying co-worker could be your mother or husband next life time unless you clear the energy with her in this one.

You're brought together with the other soul so that you forgive him or her. This doesn't mean forgiving their actions. It means detoxing your soul by releasing anger toward them. You don't have a hang out with the person, but you do need to release old pent-up toxic feelings. Holding in old anger is caustic and unhealthful.

It is also a waste of time and energy to blame that person for family dramas and your own upset. Blaming is a projection of our ego, where we don't own our shadows and ego issues, and we put them in the basket labeled: "it is their fault". And while it may be true that, that person is the instigation of traumas, blaming him or her doesn't help the situation and doesn't balance the karma between you.
