Social Blunder

If you had done something out of line Heat, then you should be apologizing... However what you did do, wasn't out of line, it was a considerate act...

The problems in that are all hers.

I do want to point something out though... If you do choose to apologize... make sure you don't apologize for the way that she took it...

That is the sorta of slimy thing that politicians do... Apologize that someone was offended without actually apologizing for saying or doing the offensive act... Such bullshit and really demonstrative of a person's character.

 

I have really thought about this again today. The suggestions and help from all of you helped me to sort out what I feel.

I have a feeling she was not expecting it and it made her unsure of how to react and made me uncomfortable because of that. As a guest albeit a good friend, in my home that someone is uncomfortable is what bothers me. That I will have to let it settle in myself and avoid the situation in the future. Or my reaction to it possibly more than the situation.

I also know she is not herself and as many pointed out it could very well be the medication and her depression that changed the way she would have normally reacted. I do know that she does not have a drinking problem, in that she does not abuse alcohol.

I am going to let it go and just take the lesson from it for the next time she is over. I will let her take the lead instead. I trust her judgment and she will make the choices she needs to for herself. She has already taken the hardest steps in admitting she has a problem with depression, seeing a doctor for help and consulting with a psychologist.

Thank you all again for your input.
