This one didn't happen to me, but...

It will never cease to amaze me what people are capable of.

We're all so good at rationalizing and justifying that sometimes we can do the ugliest things and still feel like they are perfectly warranted.

Here's a newsflash for everyone out there: doing hurtful things to friends is still wrong, even if you're doing it because they made you mad.

As cheesey and cliche as it is, two wrongs really don't make a right.

In my crazy little head, I seem to think that if someone you consider a friend does something to upset you, then the best course of action would be to confront them about it. Maybe you have an argument, maybe there is some yelling, but the key is communication. Honest communication. Not following through on that because you claim it would make things worse is just cowardice. Trust me, I know from experience.

Maybe you think I have that wrong. There is always room for other opinions, but it was a lesson I learned the hard way a long time ago. It was a lesson that almost lost me a friend, and I wouldn't wish that on anybody.

I agree %100.

In the end, this did happen to me... again. The very same friend I mentioned almost losing has done it again. Hasn't spoken to me in months. Isn't that lovely?
