Could a friend of yours make you go against your principles?

nope because if they were friends they wouldn't even try

Not usually, a friend did once manipulate me into a situation where I couldn't say No even though that Is the only thing I wanted to say. She had felt suicidal for months and promised me If I did one thing for her that day it would make her happy and she wouldn't kill herself (how can a suicidal person promise that) but she looked so deep into my eyes. How could I say no, to a promise.

Anyway I've never hated myself more than I did the next day. Never again am I doing something I don't want to.

Under peer pressure i suppose they could. It would depend on what they would be asking me to do. In the past i would of been to afraid to stand up against them. But now i have a little more bottle to put my foot down and tell them out straight.

That'd be peer pressure

whether I decide to go along with it is my responsibility

But then that wouldn't be a friend would it?

A friend to me is someone who respects my principles

Depends on what kind of friend a friend yes but a best friend no.

no, never. no matter what. I pride myself of having very srtong principles.

Not much of a friend then?

NO. Only you control your words or your actions.

oh yes, alan is a bit of arsonist. i really dont agree with it, but i cant escape him

yeah
