So basically, it can be deemed that the narrator is giving her an indirect ultimatum, i.e. Put simply, this lady desiring to be with her main squeeze as well as the vocalist.
So what’s being insinuated is that he wants her to break up with her boyfriend, which the addressee is not willing to do. Furthermore, it can be understood that she wants to have her cake and eat it too. the singer ‘not being okay’ that she is concurrently dating someone else. I Am Not Okay with This is a winner.And the further implication is that he has developed real feelings for the addressee, thus leading us to the title, i.e. The moments when she lets her freak flag fly are positively exhilarating.

Building a drama around an angry young woman whose fury can literally kill is a unique idea, TV series-wise, and Lillis makes her angst relatable.

Speaking of those, they make pleasant wish-fulfillment for teens, particularly the teenage and 20-something female viewers this series is aimed at, who may know a thing or two personally about impotent rage. The building relationship between Sydney and Stanley (the Duckie to Lillis' Andie) is particularly choice, and feels playful and sweet and real, grounding the supernatural goings-on. But Lillis is so good that she makes viewers buy right in to her character's irony and anger, and she has such great chemistry with every other actor on screen that her skills are immediately made clear. Things get off to a bit of a shaky start when a bloodied Sydney stalks down the middle of a paved road with fury in her eye as the voice-over says "Dear diary: Go f-k yourself." Voice-overs are notoriously tricky things (though The End of the F***ing World largely used the device successfully), and it's certainly taking a risk to have the very first line of your show half cribbed from Heathers, half a bland (if vulgar) cliché. Lillis is very good in this teen angst-meets-superhero drama with a terrific premise, cool characters, and quirky, wonderful cast. Expect fantasy violence, which can be bloody and harmful to others. Language is frequent: "f-k," "f-king," "s-tty," "badass," "d-khead." A character can move things without touching them and experiences surges of power when angry. Romance is another central plot point expect same- and opposite-sex kissing, flirting, and dating, as well as sometimes vulgar references to off-screen sex (teens do ask each other if they used a condom during sex). Teens and adults drink and smoke pot to cope with their emotions there are no visible consequences. A parent's suicide is a plot point and is referred to frequently, though we don't see images.
Some characters are a bit stereotypical, like a group of mean jocks, but others are fully realized and sympathetic. Characters are relatable, particularly Lillis' Sydney, who is righteously angry yet working through terrible trauma, largely by connecting with family and friends and developing her powers of self-control with fortitude and courage. Parents need to know that I Am Not Okay with This is a drama about a teen girl ( Sophia Lillis) who is struggling with complicated feelings about her (female) best friend and the death of her dad at the same time that she is realizing she has supernatural powers.
