Sometimes you do things, that at the time you think are harmless, but after the fact realize it was the dumbest thing ever and wish you had never done them- especially because you hurt another person/people's feelings.
People make mistakes. But if the mistakes aren't catastrophic, sometimes they are forgivable.
So what do you do when you make a mistake, not a HUGE mistake, but one that hurt someone, and you have apologized up and down and have tried to make it up to them, but it just isn't getting you anywhere except going around in circles over this stupid stupid mistake?
Do you just take a step back and let the person you hurt decide when they are ready to forgive, knowing that they may never forgive and you may live with the fact that you made a minor mistake? Or do you get mad at the person for just not being able to forgive you for something so stupid and walk away anyway because you know it's a lost cause? Or do you continue to apologize up and down, knowing that it isn't going to get you anywhere and just be a slave to the fact that you fucked up? But a very minor fuck up....
I am just not sure what to do. I have tried to fix things.
Not to mention, I have forgiven so many minor things, which in this person's mind may not add up to what they perceive to be my 'huge' mistake.
Trust is a hard thing to establish. One minor mess up can wipe it all clean, and forever put you on a track of no trust, which isn't good for any type of friendship.
I am sorry. I can't say it enough.
I am so fucking spent. Thank god it's friday. I need a vacation badly.
I am going to the chiropractor. It's definitely needed.
Have a good weekend e:peeps
