Well.. a lot's changed since then. We buried the hatched a while ago, but he didn't actually apologize and things were never the same. Now we're on a "see you when I see you" basis. I'm not sure if I want to start that friendship up again, I've given up marijuana but he hasn't. I got caught up in my feelings about being cooped up in the house due to lockdown and been on Terb for what feels like the first time in years, and the conversations reminded me of that time in my life.Why not contact him again?
I had a friend, she betrayed me in a hurtful way because of a BF she was with. I stopped talking to her for 3 years. She apologized but I wanted none of it. And I was right to walk away at the time.
Fast forward 3 years and I was in counseling dealing with another matter. It brought up forgiveness in a way I had not thought of and by the end I called her to forgive her. I wasn’t calling for any other reason. I knew my forgiveness would mean the world to her.
We had to build some trust back but we back to being the best of friends.
People move past things and he may be missing you too. Give it a try. What’s the worst that will happen? You still won’t have him but the up side, you may get your buddy back.
I was single back then and running free, but now if I had that kind of buddy, he'd have to have just as much to lose as I would if this secret got out.
