Yes, little immature me.
I need some advice on something really little, but I have no idea how to say it. And no, its not asking anybody out if that's what you're thinking. Yesterday this guy ((One of my very good friends)) was being a jerk, and today he gave me a note that says this: Dear Sierra, I'm sorry about what I said, and I'll never do anything like it again. I feel terrible for treating you that way, you're a very good friend to me. From now on I will be different, and I am terribly sorry. Gosh, that sounds pathetic for some reason. He's really sweet, but I don't know if I should forgive him or not, and if so I don't know what to say. He's just like a regular guy, when its just you two he is probably the sweetest thing in the world, but when he's around his friends he is such a jerk. I don't know if I should forgive him, I have a big feeling he will do something like that again, or is it just me not being open enough to forgive people? UGH, please help! |

A good thing to remember is to always forgive and forget - holding grudges is not cool.
The key thing you need to evaluate for yourself is whether or not you think he deserves a second chance. (I think he does) At any rate, you tell him how you feel... communication is always important! If you don't think you should give him a second chance, forgive him anyway and just don't hang around him all of the time. You don't want to be known in his circle fo friends as the B*tch... but more than that, it's about principle. Forgiveness is the first step toward healing. Holding it against him won't accomplish anything postive. Sincere? I think so - why would a guy take the time to write a note like that to a friend? Obviously, he cares about you're opinion and he means what he said... it bothered him an awful lot. Since he cares about your opinion, tell him how you feel (I know I'm redundant). There is a difference between forgiveness with a second chance and forgiveness with a little distance. Choose one, and remember that forgiveness is a key subject for life's happiness. Hope that helped! |
