I hate it when people become soo suffocating and dominating in friendships, and don't understand and even scold at you, when you need space. Ughhh! :(

Recently I have been taking distance from a friend... because she wasnt respecting my feelings and manipulating and dominating me... even giving me feelings of guilt, while I wasnt at fault.. and finally after bearing it soo long, and always putting it beside me, I was finally able to say... STOP! I got a very rude reply after that.. which I ignored.. Her loss.. not mine .. I cant handle it anymore. It has been enough! Its a burden to be soo sensitive and not assertive enough, though. *Sighs*

I am in a similar situation. A friend of mine scolded me cause I did not have time to see him. Like I know it has been a long time but I work nights and a lot. During days I sleep and every other time I am just tired. I cancelled plans cause I was so freaking tired and he got mad at me. Even tried reverse psychology on me to do what he wanted. I hate being manipulated and being told what to do.

If I am friends with someone I don't really expect anything from them but loyalty and support when I need it. If you are in trouble I will be there and I am good at giving support but I hate it when someone is needy for no reason. Makes me just think don't they like being by themselves? And if not, do they not like themselves?
