Everywhere I go. My family do it, so called friends do it, people on forums all over the place do it. WHY DO IT?!

Have you asked them why they do it and told them that it bothers you? They may not think they are doing it, so you might need to give them some examples and tell them that even if they don't mean it that way, you are perceiving it that way and ask them if they could start treating you differently.

I always ask them and ask them to stop. Even simple things like bringing my dinner plate down and I'm heading to wash it off and put it in the dishwasher. Every time my dad is like "put it in the dishwasher"

f**k OFF I WAS ALREADY DOING THAT AND YOU KNOW IT :evil: :evil: :evil:

or my driving lessons I'm starting again "you need your paper licence as well"
People don't ask. They just TELL you. I wouldn't be offended if it was like "I just want to check, you know you also need your paper licence too don't you?" but people don't, they just talk at you and assume you know f**k all.

I know a lot more than my dad, he can't spell, even simple words like "again" his writing is s**t, he's actually the dumb one, and he treats me like it.

Friends have also done it too and I'm beginning to wear thin on them and really have a go at them ¬¬

And someone on here for example, making out I don't know how to write a profile for a dating site, asking me to send him my profiles so he can edit them.

F*CK RIGHT OFF! I'll do things my way thanks! I didn't even ask for advice! I'm sorry but you don't insult someone like that, then keep insulting me for being p*ssed off at a comment like that!

I could also say people treat me like a kid, that's just judging by appearance, looking weaker makes you weaker, but from inside I'm 10 more mature than those stupids.
