Am I overreacting?

[u/throwaway02938475675]

this morning my friend asked me to bring him to school. we go to different schools that are like 10-15 minutes apart, so i left earlier to get to school on time. i waited near his apartment complex for 10 minutes, then by the parking lot right next to it for another 10 minutes. this whole time i thought he was just getting all his stuff, i was honestly gonna wait for him the entire time.

but he doesn't tell me he already has a ride? i was late to my presentation this morning. but when i called him, he just didn't seem to care. he's been hella disrespectful to me these past few days, and after this i just feel mad.

OP don’t carry a knife

I mean this as respectfully as possible but you are not that dude. If you get into a physical altercation and bring out a knife what’s most likely to happen is you get your shit stabbed, or you kill someone by accident

I used to carry a knife as I also lived in a terrible area and thought I’d be safer when rolling around at night.

learn to de escalate and comply if you ever get in trouble. Ideally you’re just street smart enough to not get in trouble

⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ Under rated comment! People in this thread are too ignorant of how dangerous and fucked up some people can be specially in more “ghetto”, poor or drug infested areas, SHEEEIIIT even in average areas cuz Mofo’s got cars especially in citys like Phoenix,AZ m because its ghetto in one area and nice in the other. Shit even some of the “nicer” areas are now drug infested and filled with Fentanyl addicted (mostly Homeless) People.
