I miss being friends with her and I feel so dumb for acting
Question Posted Saturday December 16 2006, 5:31 pm
I'm friends with this girl, Rachel. Last year we were best friends and we did practically everything together. We got in a fight over the summer, but I forgave her and I'm still mad about it. Well, I WAS. I'm not anymore, but when I was, I tried to do everything without her to make her see how I felt...I tried to MAKE her feel left out. I feel really bad about it even though she didn't even apologize for it herself because it was the wrong thing to do and the wrong way to handle it. I feel so stupid now and we barely talk. She hasn't told it to my face that it bothers her, but she told my other friend and they told me. Is there some way that I can apologize in a different way or something and be best friends with her again?

Don't add anything that might suggest that the fight was her fault. Usually when you apologize to someone face to face( and to if with real feeling), they will almost immediatly accept your apology(and sometimes start blaming themselves)If they do start to put blame on themself, assure her that you forgive her comepletely. I know it sounds kinda soap-operaish but afterward it will immediatly make you and her feel a whole lot better and possibly even better friends than you started out as.
