How do i respond to this?

Don't deal. They're not worth it. I had a friend who controlled me like that and when she ditched me, it destroyed me 100%. I was depressed and couldn't handle anything. Find someone who'll treat you right and get out of that relationship. You are better than that. You deserve better. Never let them-or anybody-tell you differently. I know you feel like you need them, but you don't. Believe me. Try talking to a girl who you see around school who's in some of your classes who you know is nice. But don't try to deal. You need to feel good about yourself and have friend who love you. Please, treat yourself right and leave the relationship.
