to_the_rescuex3 answered Monday April 24 2006, 8:49 pm: I would definitely apologize in person. This way, it feels more personal for the other person. It's really easy to type whatever you want on IM and blow it off later. But when you tell them in person, they can see your expression and hear the tone of your voice. They will know that it's for real, and will forgive you more easily. When you are apologizing, make sure it's coming from your heart. Use a clear, confident voice. Don't mumble or whine. This way, you will earn their respect, and will have a better relationship with this person.
Good luck! [ to_the_rescuex3's advice column | Ask to_the_rescuex3 A Question ]
CavieOwnsU2 answered Monday April 24 2006, 7:43 pm: Online it has a greater chance of being tooken the wrong way. In person you can see the other's body language, and yours will probably convey that you are really truely sorry. You have a better chance of being forgiven and keeping the friendship. If it is really serious, let them cool down for at least a day. Otherwise they will have all the feelings still inside them and might end up just making it worse. If it's over something smaller, then right after it happens might be the right time. It's different with different situations. [ CavieOwnsU2's advice column | Ask CavieOwnsU2 A Question ]
charmed3fanatic answered Monday April 24 2006, 7:35 pm: do it in person... because chances are they will forgive you more if you do it in person... because your saying it too their face which means your machore enough to understand what you did wrong.. saying it on the computer is what a pansy would do ;] give them a day to cool down so they can sleep on it ;] [ charmed3fanatic's advice column | Ask charmed3fanatic A Question ]

summerGIRL_xo answered Monday April 24 2006, 4:47 pm: i would say if its really serious, you might want to get them to calm down. it takes courage to do stuff like that in person .. if you can, in person is good. online is good too .. it's just, people can be really different online than they normally would be. also if your friend says something or you do the other person might see it in a mean way when the person who said it didn't mean it that way lol sorry if thats cofusing. hope i helped youu <333 [ summerGIRL_xo's advice column | Ask summerGIRL_xo A Question ]
daddysgirl9262 answered Monday April 24 2006, 4:47 pm: whenever me & my friends get in fight, i think its easier to talk to them online cause personally i can say more of how i feel and be able to talk to them. it dependso on the situation if you should let them cool down. give your friend maybe a day or two, but dont wait too long because then you might loose your friend. I hope i helped. ♥Ally [ daddysgirl9262's advice column | Ask daddysgirl9262 A Question ]
xoMarisox answered Monday April 24 2006, 4:41 pm: Well, it depends on the friend. I would say online only because then you can both say how you really feel and not have to face them face to face. Because when you talk in person and you say "i'm sorry" Then may just be like oh it's ok.. and they may not feel that way, they just can't say stuff to your face.

itsz_JESS answered Monday April 24 2006, 4:26 pm: i would say give them like 2 days to cool down and if you say sorry, you could do it online or tell them in person, its up to you but i think its better in person because you can tell if they mean it or not. good luck!

mmmmmmm answered Monday April 24 2006, 4:22 pm: if a friends mad at you, and you know that you are wrong about why they are mad at you, talk to them in person and appolagize. its better to talk to them in person because if you are talking to them online, they cant tell if you are sincere or not.
hihihihihi answered Monday April 24 2006, 4:21 pm: i don't think it matters- as long as the message gets across. online you have to be careful because you might say something that isnt supposed to sound mean, but since it is online can be taken the wrong way.
