Just recently, you've been feeling or acting pretty darned rebellious and willful in the presence of some of your friends. Does that mean you're really done with their nonsense, and perfectly willing to let them know it? It does if you're brave enough to actually come out and say it, as opposed to being passive-aggressive. Why not just say what's on your mind? Bet you end up closer as a result. Maybe not right away, but soon. Respect can be earned in many ways.
