Lexi, you are a very sensitive person. There is nothing wrong with caring about people's feelings, but the thing I hope is that you will start to be able to see that you are responsible for your own feelings and not theirs. They can choose to take offense or be hurt, or not. Telling them how you feel is fine, and you don't need to apologize for your feelings. Or punish yourself either.
