Intricacies of friendship
I was sitting in a chat room with some of my NWT friends this afternoon, all of which were complaining about their parents and how much their parents hate them. I did not mean to offend one of my best friends Amy but I did. I do realize I know very little of her relationship with her parents, but I do know I felt the same way about my parents when I was younger. Even last year I wrote an entry about my dad and about yes I love him but no I do not like the person he is. In the year I have learned more about myself and about my relationship with him. I know its the age and the way they were all viewing it, not how it really is, but I only pissed my friend Amy off. I did not mean to, I only wanted to reassure her it wasnt as bad as she might think. Instead I offended her. Grrr
I’ve never really been able to be soft spoken when it comes to things, Im way to forward and blunt. I’ll give her a day to calm down and I’ll give her a call to apologize.
I have another friend Ive found out something about. Unfortunately I cant write about it in here because I found out in their OD. Im not even sure if this friend realizes I know where their OD is. But its a HUGE issue and it frightens me that my friend might be going through this alone. Then again Im sure he’s not because another friend of his knew the secret and Im sure that this friend is being supportive. It does explain a lot though …. Ive got to run, call a few people make ammends..
Maybe if this “friend” didn’t give you their OD name they didn’t want you to read about what happened. You could be hurting this person worse by violating their trust and feelings of security.
