Friendship. My best friend is a guy, who is 16. I'm a girl who is 16. We are very good friends, but for some reason at least 2-3 times a week he'll do something that really upsets me. Usually I never tell him & just let it slide by, but these past few weeks I've been telling him. The things I get mad over are little & stupid, & completely ridiculous to get angry/upset over, but I can't control it, and I just do.
How can I basically coach myself to maintain calm, or atleast not get mad/upset at SMALL things?
THANK YOU!

well if you think it is a problem that you need to solve, confront him about it...ask him to try not to do those things that upset you anymore and if for some reason he does...tell him to tell you when you are getting too mad so you can have more control over the situation. If he is your true friend like you say, he will understand :-) GoOd LuCk!!! ]
So... how was it you let it slide in the first place? Try to keep that frame of mind when you confront him about what bothers you. If he is your best friend, you should be able to share your feelings with one another. However, you are right in not wanting to get mad over small things.
Keep in mind that it is never a good idea to get angry over what isn't worth losing your temper about or arguing what isn't worth fighting about.
If he does something small that upsets you, keep in mind when and if you confront him that one should never sweat the small stuff in life- there is too much big stuff in the world for you to vent about. ]
