you need to tell traci how you feel. you should tell her that you dont appreciate it when she bosses you around, because you deserve respect, and not just because youre is older than her. you need to let her know that you would like for her to stop being rude to her, and ask her why she feels the need to treat you the way she does. maybe youve done something to offend her previously. most of all, let her know that you dont want her to stop talking to her, because you like her, but you arent going to tolerate her treating you the way she does. let her know something needs to change.

tell her that its ok if she never talks to you again , she'll come around. she just keeps bossing you because she knows she can , when you tell her she can't do it anymore than she will stop.

x'kaylaaaaaaaaaaaa

Okay, well you guys are related so you're gonna have to talk to her anyways. and you should just say "well i already did listen to you so you should listen to me for once or else i'm never speaking to you again"

Simple-- don't let her boss you around. You're 18, you're an adult. She's just a kid. It's hard to say "no" sometimes, but you can't let yourself be taken advantage of. When she tries to boss you around, just think of how nice it would be to say "no". She can't force you to do anything.

As for not speaking to you again, I think it's an empty threat. She's your cousin, she's not going to break off all ties with you because you refuse to let her boss you around. And if she does, she's obviously not a good friend or cousin and is just trying to use you.

Be strong, stand up for yourself ;D

Your cousin's an idiot.


Therefore, do what you want. You're an adult, she's not. Screw her.

well she is only 15 (thats 3 yrs younger than you). you shouldnt be intimadated by what she says. she wont actually not talk to you ever again. and if shes so bossy maybe some time off from hearing her being bossy is what you need. just do whatever you want and if she has a problem then she just needs to deal becaus its her own personal problem
