When we look at life itself…what is most important? The people who already like you or the people who don’t like you?

Not everyone is able to like everyone, but we can still respect one another as EQUAL human beings.

A recent example: My cousin had a girlfriend. She is 2 years younger than me and 5 years younger than my cousin. I didn’t like her at all. Her first impression she made on me wasn’t something that I liked.  To be honest I didn’t think she liked me either, but that’s not the point.  Even though I didn’t like her, I didn’t treat her with any less respected.  I respected her relationship with my cousin, yet she didn’t respect my relationship with him at all.  According to her we, my cousin and I, were too close.

This infuriated me.  I saw him 7 years ago, finally we have contact again.  Anyway, we had one huge fight.  She said that she and my cousin were made for each other.  That they will always be together.  Bear in mind that she is only 16 which makes him 21 (almost anyway).  She said that I didn’t respect her or their relationship because I didn’t want to support her.

Is this true?  Should I have supported a relationship I had no say in, of what I only had my own opinion?  You don’t support something you don’t believe in, do you?
