Hello! When using "anal retentive," which of the subsequent prepositions would be considered best, or are they all great, or is there a better one?
1. She was anal retentive regarding book organization.
2. She was anal retentive in regard to book organization.
3. She was anal retentive about book organization.
4. She was anal retentive with book organization.
5. She was anal retentive around book organization.
Etc. ?
@lotsofquestions,
I wouldn't use 5. I think three is the best.
