Car Accident/Friendship over


Question Posted Sunday April 24 2011, 11:53 pm

I took my friend to walmart to get something on the way back i had an accident and he went with me to take pictures of the car and he showed people we both know, but then he was also showing random people the car. then i got mad and cursed him out and talked shit about him on facebook. Was that as awfulas it seems. i think i have some validity i felt he was going to far to get attention and having my business out there all at once.

I'm sure you were embarrassed by the accident. That your friend continued to make such a big deal about it was pretty rude and inane. Your friend really needs a lesson in boundaries and you may have given him one by verbally ripping his head off.

Talking shit about him on Facebook, though, took it too far. So both of you need to learn a sense of proportion. Embarrassing your friend before the entire planet is at least as bad as him embarrassing you on the local level in the aftermath of the accident. Apologize to the friend but tell him calmly but firmly not to embarrass you like that again or your friendship will be over.

You overreacted. If you had a problem with him, you should have said something. Its not to late, though. If you suck up your pride and tell him you're sorry you went the facebook route because that's not mature, you might can save your friendship. You should be apologizing for not communicating better about your feelings. He should be apologizing for spreading your business. Compromise if all else fails.

If you were mad about what you're friend was doing you should have pulled him aside and talked to him personally. Talking badly about someone is never right, especially if it's on a social network such as facebook. If your friend wanted to he could sue you for ruining his reputation, and life or what ever. So if he hasn't found out tell him admittedly what you did and why and talk about the situation and solve your problems. Good Luck!
