| Respect me....that is all I ask for
|

Is that asking to much really? A little respect that is all I want. I think that is the least I deserve. I am not asking that you be my friend, or have to like me, or even accept me all I want is a little respect.
I treat everyone with respect. I may not like you, but I am not going to go and hurt you, disrespect you, judge you. I treat people the way I want to be treated, but do I ever get treated that way? No. I am not saying that I don't disrespect people because I do, but I don't go around disrespecting them for no reason. Now I know nothing anyone ever does gives me a reason to disrespect them but I am only human I make mistakes just like everyone else.
The entire week that I was home my family didn't respect me very much at all. Maybe they didn't realize they were doing some of it, but all they had to do was ask. I always bring my laptop home with me, I don't know why I still do because my family is always on it. My mom knows my password somehow, so she logs on whenever she feels like it and when she's done my younger sisters are on. Half the time I would come home and my laptop which I left in MY room was downstairs in the dining room. I don't remember a phone call asking if they could borrow my computer nonetheless go into my room! Not only would they use my things without asking but they didn't respect my privacy either.
I came back to school to find my roommate had her things all over my bed and my side of the room. She wasn't suppose to come in until after 7 it was only 4 so it was a shock to even see her there in the room. I actually unpacked all of my stuff last night, got everything in order and tried working on some homework. Kind of hard to do when my roommate still had a lot of her stuff on my bed, and on my desk. I moved most of it, but her desk and side of the room is a total disaster because she has yet to unpack and I don't want to ruin any of her things. I respect her, all of her things, I would like a little of the same.
Respect....it's a huge deal to me. I don't like being treated with disrespect. You could hate me I don't care, I'm not asking that you accept me or be my friend all I want is a little respect.
Maybe I'm being selfish, wanting respect...asking that people ask to use/borrow my things before just taking them. Wanting my bed and my side of the room to be neat and tidy without all my roommates stuff all over everything. I never thought of myself as a selfish person, but maybe I am...all I wanted was to go to church Sunday morning, we didn't and I was upset with my mom the rest of the day. I wanted what I wanted and I didn't care that she didn't want to go...
I'm growing up, and dare I say it changing. I am finding myself and becoming an adult...

I always respected ppl didn't matter who they were, but then too they never return the favor,they always just take without asking, but a lot take my kindness for granted, thinking I don't care but I do. Have a Great Day!!
