When I was in college (which is now 20 years ago), I did a few things (usually while I was drunk) that were very embarrasing (nothing illegal). The other day while exchanging e-mails, my good friend referred to one of my more embarrasing acts in his email. Although, I think he meant it in "good fun" or as a "joke", I was offended that he brought up this long-ago act. Should I say something or just forget about it?

I know you were offended, but he probably did just mean it in a joking way and was just talking about the funny good times. But, if he continues to mention all these times that offend you, mention it to him then and ask him if he'd please stop talking about them because you don't like to be reminded or that you're offended by it. I hope I helped. [ MelLeDisko's advice column | Ask MelLeDisko A Question ]
