i have a friend or probably an ex-friend who didnt call me back after

i called her. i called her to confirm that she would be at the place

she said she would be that night. since she didnt call me back i

didnt go there. the next day i left a message on her phone saying i

was disappointed she didnt call me back, i thought it was

disrespectful. she called me back in a huff and started yelling at

me telling me she was a 26 year old and didnt needed to be scolded.

when she started yelling i just hung up on her. i had gone through a

half an hour session with her where she was mad at something she

thought i said that i didnt even say a couple weeks ago. and that

went no where pos. so i gave up and just hung up this time.

after i got off the phone i kind of felt good because i was

assertive. before this, when she started yelling i would have just

tried to reason with the other person and probably get yelled at for

another half an hour. the assertiveness is something that i learned

in a cbt program im doing. but, im also kind of sad because i know

she wont want to talk to me now. and she was a pretty fun person to

hang out with. do you guys think this is a pos. step.

my sister also moved in a couple days ago and tonight ofcourse she

wore perfume. i told my mom and she didnt say anything to her. in

fact she put on more. and then i used the computer and i got an hear

full from my mom that its her computer and she bought it for her.

which is confusing because i was told that it was the family's

computer when we got it and it was told too me many times.

what skills can i use here for the rest of the time im here. even if

they arent the nicest i dont care.
