Then they think I'm over reacting.
I'm not over reacting though. This is just all the pent up tension from taking their BS for so long that I have to let it out somewhere.

yes! i know exactly what you mean.... this happens a lot with close friends of mine.... for instance... my flatmate- we've been best friends for 3 years- and we lived together last year too- now we're in a different country- and all of the things that didn't bother me before are totally in my face since i don't really have too many places to go (b/c i don'thave my sisters or other firends to go to- like i do at home) she is so closeminded sometimes when she brags about being openminded.... and she's always complaining about things that we all feel (tired- hungry etc) and i really hate that she can be really insensitive sometimes- ( i used to be clinically depressed- and i'm on antidepressants- i struggle with it everyday- and its really hard for me) and she's just like- oh get over it... i've never noticed that she can be sooo harsh... and then when i joke around with her about something- she blows it out of proportion and freaks out.... (the other morning i didn't have my keys to get in- and i woke her up... i was kinda still drunk from the night before and i was like oh come on *sshole get the door... it was harsh- but i was COMPLETELY joking and she should know that- she didn't talk to me for 3 days!)
i don't know what to say to her about all this- but i know one of these days i'm just going to freak out- and our friendship might be over b/c she can't handle criticism like that.... i've lost 3 best friends because when i finally speak up- they can't take it- scream at me and leave... just b/c i was speaking my feelings... so i'm pretty scared to say anything... but i don't know waht else to do... things are better now- her boyfriend is visiting for a few weeks- so i don't ahve to deal with her so much and when i do- things are back to normal- b/c she really is a good friend- listening to me- backing me up etc- thats why it was so weird she started acting so weird here...
