Question Posted Thursday December 2 2004, 10:38 pm
I had a friend named Cherry since I was in kindergarten. About a year ago my cat died and she said "Oh well, now you can get a new one." (I was very close to this cat) Well, my mom said that no one close to her had ever died and she didn't understand but I didn't listen. About fou months later I caught her talking about me bahind my back saying I needed to go one a diet. I admit that I guess I do but it was still hurtful. My friend Guari tried to stick up for me by calling Cherry a prep and saying some bad things about her. Then I got mad when she insultes Guari and we got into a big fight and I stopped talking to her for almost a year now because 1. She was a prep and Guari convinced me all preps are evil (not true) 2. She was rude about my cat (she didnt understand) and 3. she talked about me behind my back (we all do it)
Now I want to apologize but I dont know if I can or should and I know after all those bad names we called each otehr and that big fight that lasted almost a month Guari will be mad and Im not good at admitting I was wrong. What should I do? (about apologizing and if I do about Gauri's reaction) I RATE!

Yeah her talking about you behind your back was wrong but maybe she didnt say ne thing and it was all hear say stuff. And about your cat she didnt understadn where you were coming from and if she did i doubt she'd react like that if you guys were goof friends. I think everyone owes every one an apology not just you. Good luck though [ Miss_Megan's advice column | Ask Miss_Megan A Question ]
