I didn't reply back at first because I was thinking about how I felt about the whole thing. That doesn't mean I didn't take your words into account, though. It was very relieving to actually get some perspective, and your words made me feel a lot better.
It just goes to show that even though my philosophy is one of independent thought and staying true to myself, it's not always that easy to live up to it. I guess I just had this idea in my head about how people in that situation were 'supposed' to behave and react, and when my own instincts didn't fit my perception of the norm, I got worried. Silly, very silly.
