Re: When you fall out with a friend

While still trying to unsee Tpin's failed courtship with a DJ (whoever he/she was) ...there sure seems to be a lot of man-hugging going on over there.

Whatever happened to a good word, a handshake and buying the eventual round?

You all need to quit watching so much American television.

Fish lorries do stink I expect, Art. But I assure you that was just a fish lorry and not the whole city - except our wonderful fish and chip shops maybe

Well folks, this was the outcome.
At around 12am I saw my "mate" we'll call 'Pat' and the all too brief conversation played thus:

Floydy: Pat, got a minute mate?

Pat: (no answer) but waited for my question.

F: Look mate, I want to start afresh? I've had things on my plate and I just snapped the other week...I said a lot of things to you I shouldn't have. I respect you too much as a mate to carry on like this. I apologise.

P: That's not the way I want it.

F: Alright then. I thought I'd be a bloke by saying I'm sorry but...

P: I'll talk to you about work 'cos we have to but that's all.

So that was that and I went away. Not a great outcome but at least my mind is at rest of sorts and I know where I stand. The ball's in his court and I'll respect his decision.

What a jerk he was. Well Floyd, you did the right thing, your conscience is clear....Karma will come and kick his A** someday, and you will laugh "he who laughs last, lasts best"....
