To antagonize someone is to provoke them to anger, or bait them into an argument, or both. I involve taunting the other person with remarks aimed at their passion or sensitivity for some topic or issue.

It means "stop contradicting me." Like if somebody has an idea and you don't agree on the other hand with the idea, that's antagonizing that person. It's like you're a villain in that person's life.

antagonizing is another way of saying bothering, more especially causing someone to want to do something negative "get mad, run away, etc."

It means they are not happy with you!
They want you to stop asking questions that don't have a good answer - like "why did you drop that glass of milk?". Or picking on them, with or without good reason, or maybe just talking to them.
But I'm sure if you think about things from their perspective you'll get it!

They're getting really pee'd off because you keep winding them up and they can't think of anything witty enough to come back at you with! Just stop being so annoying!

It is a warning that you are crossing a line that might get you a beating and that you should leave the person alone.

It means they feel like you're being hostile, picking a fight, or trying to argue with them and they want you to stop.
