Thanks for your reply. I find it so frustrating and demeaning. I didn't speak to her at all today, after the initial "okay" followed by plugging in my headphones when she tried to talk to me this morning. She ignored my cold shoulder, not bothering to talk to me about it, which just strengthened my anger, because its like she's just waiting for me to "get over my mood" and then on the bus I was suggesting to one of our friends that he should get his girlfriend (a huge twilight fan) a charm bracelet that is featured in the book for christmas, and add a charm with the first letter of his name, B. Then I said that it would be cute if he also added her letter, J.Put them together, and you get hysterical laughter. I was laughing so hard, and its been a while since I laughed like that without being hypo and either having a little voice in the back of my head telling me I'm embarrasing myself, or laughing because I feel like I have no other choice. She gave me a funny look, like almost saying "oh my god, is she going to do that on the bus!?" and the look on her face killed my joy thoroughly. I AM capable of having normal emotions, and when someone does something to make me mad, sad, etc, I should be listened to, not have my feelings ignored and written off as insignificant. I am a human being with real feelings, not a robot empty of everyhing except major PMS. She is (or was) my best friend, and the only person who I have confided in (and only partially) and she doesn't even get that.
