18、m my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens?

25、, because my ego (自尊心) is hurt.Before the other person gets a chance to explain why she disagrees with me, my usual response would be, “If you arent able to understand my point of view, then what you think isnt worth my time or consideration, either.” But now Ive come to realize that when a friend d
