[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^ and by the way, OP, it's no one's "job" to persuade others.  It's a choice we make in the way we deal with other fellow human beings.  And teenagers -- certainly ones in the 14-15 range -- are not off the hook.  Choose to understand.  Choose to try to respectfully persuade.  Choose to sit quietly through a church service, thank the family for including you in something that was important to them, and move on.  It's your choice, OP.  Or keep dwelling on it and feeling wronged.  Choose wisely.[/quote]

Thankfully the world is full of people that have all sorts of opinions and beliefs and not all of them force others into being a part of it. Also were you friends with every single person you knew when you were a teenager? This particular girl and I were "friendly" but not friends. That's not a crime and we didn't dislike each other we just weren't friends. Didn't hang out etc...

And no I don't think I should have thanked them for forcing me into a needless uncomfortable situation not once but twice while I was there. It was over the top and like I said in a previous comment, very insensitive after I made my feelings known. I was respectful in the way I told them, they should have been respectful to me as well.

And I am reflecting on it as an adult which is why I stated that I would never do something like that to my own kid's friends ( or aquaintances or simply other people in general).[/quote]
