atfault in car accident, I am India


Question Posted Thursday October 11 2007, 3:31 am

Hi,
This was the month of March and i am a new driver. I was about to take a left turn and lost control of the car. My daughter and my friend were with me in the car. My friend got hurt. Due to air bag inflation, she had few burn marks on her face. Later on the insurance people said that i was at fault. I do take responsibility of my actions.
The other day,my friend who had burn marks bought some clothes. Asked me the price. I gave her an honest answer that they are expensive. The next day she calls me and asks me why i gave her an honest answer. Claiming that i hurt her. My friend claims that i hurt her in the past. I asked her to give specific examples. She told me that because of the accident, she is having headaches. I have apologized to her hundred times for the accident and on top of it they haven't claimed for the insurance. My friend made me feel that i intentionally harmed her. My questions are :
1.Do you think i intentionally hurt her with the accident?.
2. Is it right for any person to say to the other person that they are normal?
3. I left a message on her answering machine that she had no right to judge me. Was it wrong?
Thanks,
Oceanseven

1.) I have NO idea what your intentions were. Neither does anyone else here. No telepaths on advicenators, as far as I know.

2.) It's an opinion, like any other opinion. You could tell a person they are normal just as freely as you could tell them that they are pretty.

3.) Well THAT certainly sounds a bit rude doesn't it?

You are getting your panties in a knot when really this is just the time to take a deep breath and let it go.

What she does about her insurence and headaches is not your problem.

You've told her the truth, now it's up to her to accept the truth or believe what she wants. There is nothing you can do about it.

If she says she was just joking, believe her. If she brings it up agian, tell her you are sorry but it was just an accident and hope she can understand.

Let it go.

1. no
2. yes
3. no
Move on. It's in the past, and if she brings it up again, say "I'm sorry for your past sufferings" and leave it at that.
