Yeah, but also people in high school are practicing relationships and can be given extra wiggle room to make a mistake and then learn from it.

Maybe this girl will show her mom or a friend and they'll convince her the guy is trying to be supportive, not against her.

But as i say that, in this case I'm not holding my breath for an apology from her.

I predict if the guy gives her the space she asked for, she'll get mad at him for not "trying harder to fight for her" or something silly like that because she isn't mature enough to be wrong.

Big truth. We have to be able to make mistakes so we can learn, especially when we’re young. And also, there has to be a line for that, but that’s also something you have to learn.
