Okay, I've been wanting to say this for a while, and now is the perfect time to say it.

I'm going to say this once and say it very, very clearly:

I am a fiercely, fiercely loyal person. If you are my friend, I'd give you my last penny and fight to the death for you - until you disappoint me. If you fuck with my friends, you fuck with me. If you show yourself to be something less than I believed you to be - if you are two faced, spineless or prejudiced, or if you side with bullies - I will FUCK. YOU. UP.

I will stand by my friends through anything while they are deserving of it, but I've had a lot of practise at cutting people out of my life and I will do it with no remorse whatsoever if you give me a reason.

I might like you, I may even love some of you (and I do), but I don't need people who choose not to live up to the respect I give them.

I don't need people who choose not to live up to the respect I give them.

Amen. I think a lot of people out there don't think mutual respect is important, or at least they can't be bothered to fight for my respect. Their loss.

It's less about people respecting me, than it is about people being deserving of the respect I will give my friends.

I can handle people not respecting me (to an extent) it's people not respecting themselves, other people or doing things I consider them far, far too intelligent for.

Hence my stance on my friends dabbling in illegal substances, even before I was edge.
