i was assaulted at the weekend by someone who knows me and i cant help thinking that this person knew they would get away with trying it on me. i also struggle with asserting myself with my mum,this sounds really immature but she has actually toldme not to be so cheeky when i have tried to in the past, and i can honestly say i wasn't being cheeky. i dont want to come across to people as an arrogant arsehole but the incident a the weekend has realy annoyed me and i dont want people thinking they can treat me how they like because i will just take it.
