The word "vexing" originates from the verb "vex," which has its roots in Latin.  "Vexare" in Latin meant "to shake, jolt, or harass," and it is likely a frequentative form of "vehere," meaning "to carry" or "to convey". Through Old French ("vexer"), it entered Middle English as "vexen" in the late 14th century, initially meaning to upset or anger. The adjective "vexing" (meaning "causing annoyance or pain") emerged later, around the mid-16th century. 

The verb "vex" was first used in the English language during the Middle English period, specifically between 1150 and 1500.   The earliest documented use in English is around 1410, in Higden's Polychronicon, according to the Oxford English Disctionary.  The adjective "vexing" first appeared in the English language in the mid 1500s.  Specifically, the Oxford English Dictionary cites its earliest use as around 1548, in the work "Godlye & Holesome Preseruatyue against Desperation".

Examples of "vexing" used in a sentence: 
"The trials of underarm hair removal have been vexing women for decades." 
"The fact that she shows no terror as she sits before me is most vexing."
"More vexing than the inexplicable medical miracle was the creature that did it."  
"I think I'll ask her this question that is vexing me so."
"It was a problem that had been vexing her for quite some time." 
"Gabriel's soft cluck of disapproval filled the air around him as Rhyn sat in the corner, watching the most vexing woman in the world --his mate --sleep."
