What you're doing sounds much better, in my opinion. You don't have to "flip" people off or whatever to get respect. I wouldn't respect someone for doing that, it can easily come across as being petty and like they're trying to be cool. Not being a twat about things doesn't mean you have to be a pushover. Just be firm, stick with your opinion and what you think's best, there's no need to be overly mean or bitter about it. Like you said, her method attracts more trouble. I don't see that, or being a "bad bitch" as good things. Far from it.
I'm really very sick of people reacting to situations like how your friend does. If you're genuinely very angry, then it's understandable, and I think most people have those regrettable moments. Not every single time something doesn't go your way, though, the little childish brats! But most the time people are so bloody idiotic to deal with a situation properly. I'm sick of people acting like the don't "give a fuck" about anyone or anything, and I'm sick of them treating others poorly. Those people need to get some bloody manners, they do! It spreads a bad mood.
*Sigh*. Ok, rant over:P. You're fine the way you are, please don't become a complete twat.
IIN to always beat yourself up on past situations and compare yourself
