Find Out The Reason Why They Are Annoying
First things first, it is important to find out the reason for them being annoying. Once you figure out the reason and know the source, you can do a lot of things to change yourself and prevent unnecessary tussles. Remember, in life, a lot can change when you change yourself.

Tell Them The Truth
Oftentimes, people close to us can be annoying. If you tell them upfront, it often works out fine. Tell them where their fault lies. By doing so, you can make things better. However, if they aren't willing to accept what you have to say, well, it'd be wise if you didn't bother.

Your Reaction
There is the popular saying that people and their words are powerless without your reaction. Many times, it is an extremely smart move not to react to what people say. Just let them be. You most probably don't need those kind of people in your life.

Tit For Tat
More often than not, instead of staying silent and taking everything they have to say to you, tit for tat is a good option. Give it back to them with the same intensity.

Being Assertive
This is perhaps the best way to deal with annoying people. By being assertive, you can change the way they react to what you have to say. Their fundamental reaction of anger and resentment towards you will see a dramatic change.
