I had an argument tonight with my sister, and I think I ended our friendship because of it. I won't go into the details, but basically, I think I am too brutally honest for my own good, and I can't help but tell a person how I feel about them even if it hurts. She wouldn't help out our family situation despite making good money, and it angered me.

If it feels right, I do it. It bothers me too much to leave something like that alone.

So my question and the reason for posting this thread is, what kind of literature should I read to gain insight to help me with my problem, and social problems in general?

I'm not well read, I'm lazy, and generally a disappointing failure, and it weighs heavily upon me. I want to read any works you recommend and maybe get a different perspective on things.

You sound like a fucking chick, so I'm going to recommend John Green.

So you give into impulses selfishly even if it caues pain not only to you but to others as well.

I'm gonna recommend "Everyone Poops". That seems like your level.

Same happened with one of my friends (my last ex) when I tried to explain to her that I affirm myself and regret nothing, setting myself aside from any labels other than those I choose. I guess she didn't like that I didn't regret that I broke her heart, even though I explained that while I don't regret it, I didn't like that I did and that causing her pain caused me pain too.

For fiction I'd go with Joyce; I'd rec you some nonfic but then this thread would degenerate into meming.

We all act selfishly.

Not a bad one, though I doubt his sister would receive a comparison to King Lear well.

Maybe Letters from a Stoic? There's a letter on friendship and openness right near the beginning, and you don't really necessarily have to start with the Greeks for it if you don't want.
