Societal norms, the Moral Majority and a rant that feels so good

[Crystal]

For the record, I have not once said I do not judge other people. I think, to some extent, it is human nature to judge others. Now, I may judge others, BUT, unless their behavior is something that affects me directly, I keep my mouth shut and mind my own damn business. I may quietly lose a little bit of respect for the person I have judged, depending on what it is I am judging them for, I may even choose to no longer associate with them, but I would never personally attack another person.
Alex, my "friend" has judged me based solely on the fact that I am bisexual. She is entitled to her feelings. The problem I have is that, as a friend, she should have come to me and talked to me about how she felt, given me reason for her feelings and, if she decided that it is so against her beliefs, she could have, maturely, severed ties and ended the friendship. I would have respected that. However, she chose to call me on the phone and verbally attack me, being very offensive and for that I lost all respect for her.
It's over now, I will still grieve over the loss of the friendship, but I won't dwell on it. I have better things to do with my time.
