Dear You,
I know I can be pretty thick and immature and insufferable and curious and loud, I know my outlook on life can make you want to throw me in front of a train, and I know that when I get excited or over-emotional I can be embarrassing. I do know this stuff, and I acknowledge it and I try to keep myself under control at all times so I don't end up hurting the people around me with my attempts to make everything better.
But sometimes, I mess up and I say the wrong stuff... sometimes I just can't fully understand situations and I end up doing something that upsets you or irritates you. I don't do it on purpose, it's just my way of doing things, I expect you to be mindful of the fact that I twist and turn and do back flips every single day so I don't hurt you or embarrass you, so I think I can ask that you don't hold it against me all the time, especially when you know I do try to stay normal enough for you.
I'm kind of sick hiding myself all the time. I want to be able to express myself the way I want. I want to be able to be identified for who I am, not this. So next time I act up and act the way I want, I'll just ignore your comments and continue to be happy, because you've been bringing me down for a very long time, and I think I've had enough with holding back. If my personality made you light-headed now, get ready to faint.
Love always,
Your 'responsible' friend.
