I'm an evil person.
But, I don't mean to be.
I said some things that hurt someone.
That was wrong.
And, I'm sorry.
But, sorry doesn't make people feel better.
Or mend destroyed friendships.

Date: 2006-03-25 03:21 am (UTC)But, this stuff has been going on in a writing group and it frustrated me and I said some things that I didn't mean...not the way they came out, at any rate. And, it got back to someone.
And, now, I've lost a friend and everyone hates me.
And, rightly so. I'm not fishing for sympathy or for people to tell me I'm wrong.
I was bad. I'm just sorry that I hurt someone else.
And, I'm going to learn to keep my mouth shut. It gets me into trouble.

It equals being a person who did something bad. Can't be taken back, but can be apologized for and handled differently next time around. Whatcha gonna do about it?
M'dear, I don't know what all's going on and you certainly don't have to tell me (us) anything. (Though, I'm happy to listen if you want to talk and I'm sure I'm not the only one.) But I am kinda concerned, just based on what I have read. And that's okay--I would much much rather be kinda concerned than to have any of my friends keeping everything to themselves when keeping it to themselves isn't what they need/want to be doing. But...take care of yourself, okay? Being good to other people shouldn't have to come at the cost of being good to yourself.
I'm off to bed now. Hope things look better for you soon.

Sleep well.
Thanks for your concern.

(I've done something similar before and I can understand your pain)

Date: 2006-03-25 12:31 pm (UTC)You're not evil or a bad person. Sometimes things need to be said -- they might or might not be the right things -- but I think we're a bit like tea kettles...and sometimes we have to let out steam.
Steam can be good -- it means the water is ready for tea. But, it can also backfire and burn us if we're not careful. Such is life.
Unfortunately, I completely feel you on the last bit about sorry and friendships. But, friendships go both ways and if they can't understand that things get said in the heat of the moment...well, than sometimes it's better to let it go.
Obviously, I don't know the actual details, so none of this could apply. So, more *hugs*
:)
