had it out with my sister who was driving me crazy - she didn't speak to me for two years after that. I didn't mind though - it was a blessed relief. On good terms now though and it much more even relationship, she no longer can get away with being rude and bullying me.

had it out with a friend too - she apologised by sending me flowers which really touched me.

I used to hold my tongue and always try to see why the other person was dumping on me and try to rise above it, but all that did was make me sink further and gave them permission to carry on taking advantage. Now i take a deep breath and try to be assertive, I am usually shaking inside but feel much better when i have said what is bothering me.
