Broken pencil

Conflict is pointless and unnecessary.

You lower your volume to avoid that.
It isn't 'more mature' or anything.

One does not simply reject another's view of 'happiness is simple' with an argument and irritation along with a mocking repeat of one's words.

Was it really necessary?

All you know, is that it's really tiring and you lose all strength whenever someone starts up something like this. Maybe you were the one to start it with your 'Try being more positive. You have a point, but there's always something good. It's right there if you believe in it.' After the constant rants about everything 'sucking' so much. Perhaps it was your fault. Perhaps it was insensitive (well, it definitely was) and tactless (definitely so too) to be so blatant, talking about one's views of life and almost forcing it upon another person.

But it doesn't matter.

What matters is if it turns into a pointless quarrel or not.

What matters is that it is totally possible to debate without getting all rude and hurtful.

I am always interested in new viewpoints, but not silly drama.

And. You.

Don't ask me to 'speak normally' because I can't.

I'm tired when people start raising voices and mocking my views rather than a peaceful challenging of it.
I'm tired when I know whatever I say is just gonna cause it to somehow escalate.
I'm tired when I sense that an argument is coming, worthy cause or not.

I stop talking because of that too.
Don't ever try to provoke me further with even smarter comments.


.
I'm not 'more mature'.

So don't ever say that.
Not with that tone.
Not with that voice.

Not with that raise of eyebrows, lift of chin, flare of nostrils and piercing eyes.

This isn't the first time it has happened.

This shouldn't be happening whenever you are feeling not so good.

I don't care who started it or who's right or wrong.

It's just wrong when you make an argument escalate.
It's just wrong when you make a mountain out of a molehill.
It's just wrong when you can totally not accept an idea/view without the snide comments.

It's just so pointless and unnecessary.

No thank you.
I'm still pissed.
This has happened way too many times.

I don't think I have what it takes to understand it, not unless you aregoing through a really tough time---which isn't the case.

But there's nothing to say or do, not about it but for it.

And so this conversation is over.

This friendship probably is, too.

And since I am who I am,

I do not appreciate overly argumentative people
Not one bit.

Especially people who take out their emotions on me.

You may be on a moodswing spree or just feeling down
But that doesn't earn you a right to go around being so...

:(

You're such a good person.
But it's so tiring when we interact.

I am no one to ask you to change.
You are entitled to your own persona.

This just means that I am not for you.


This relationship will continue but not last.

I will make it so.
